What to look for when buying a used livestock or horse trailer

When buying a used trailer, it is important to consider certain criteria to ensure the safety and comfort of your animals. Pay attention to the general condition, the functionality of the doors and partition walls as well as rust and wear. Check the condition of the floor, walls and lighting. Functioning brakes and an intact electrical system are essential for road safety. Make sure that the trailer complies with current legal regulations and that all necessary documents are available.


Arrange non-binding inquiries and viewing appointments

To find the right livestock or horse trailer for your needs, we recommend that you send a non-binding inquiry to the dealer. This will allow you to obtain further information and, if necessary, arrange a viewing or test drive. This allows you to check the trailer thoroughly and ensure that it meets your requirements. Use the contact options on the offer pages to get in touch with the sellers directly.
