Landscaping crews across Georgia—from suburban Atlanta to rural counties—need trailers that can handle long days, heavy loads and unpredictable terrain. Whether you’re hauling mulch to a client in Macon or transporting mowers around Roswell, the trailer you choose affects your efficiency, equipment safety and even customer impressions.
At Max Built Trailers, we’ve spent years working with landscaping businesses to deliver trailers that meet real-world needs. Below, we break down the top 10 trailer types landscapers across Georgia rely on, including what each is best for and how to choose the right one for your crew.
1. 6×12 Utility Trailer – Single Axle

- Towable by: most half-ton trucks and SUVs
- Popular in: Lawrenceville, Snellville, McDonough
2. 6×14 Tandem Axle Utility Trailer
Offers additional space and weight capacity for mid-sized zero-turn mowers, extra fuel cans and tool racks.
