The word “utility” calls to mind the ability to rise to the challenge. Someone or something that can step into any role and help get the job done. For example, our very own Minnesota Twins have a history of great utility players, from César Tovar to Denny Hocking to Willians Astudillo. Each player could step up and play any position on the field when called upon, helping the Twins win ball games along the way. Their skill sets would earn each of them the nickname “Swiss Army knife.” 

Often, we look for this type of utility in the tools we purchase. No one wants to have 1000 single-purpose tools, we want something that can be used in at least a few different applications. Trailers are no different. There are many different configurations, but the most useful one is the utility trailer. Simply put, utility trailers can help you get the job done. Whether you are a homeowner looking to make life a little easier or a contractor who is constantly hauling things for work, utility trailers are up to the task. Here are five of the best ways to put your utility trailer to work.

MOVING MADE EASY

No one loves helping their buddies move, but a utility trailer helps get the job done faster and cheaper than without one. The added capacity can easily fit furniture, allowing you to make fewer trips while avoiding expensive truck rentals or moving companies. After all, you don't need to know how to load a trailer to move - you just need all of your belongings to fit. This is exactly why anyone buys any tool - to save time and money in the long run. Utility trailers will help you do just that.

HAULING USA

We all live busy lives. With all the different things going on, we inevitably accumulate a lot of stuff. Sometimes it’s trash or scrap destined for the dump, sometimes it’s a pile of things that have outlived their usefulness to your family. Regardless, a utility trailer will help you easily knock down the clutter by taking these items to their new home.

CONTRACTOR’S CADDY

Utility trailers are a contractor’s dream. They are spacious enough to carry equipment and materials from job site to job site. This offers contractors the flexibility of hauling items of different dimensions and the efficiency of having their tools on hand at the same time. The back gates on utility trailers are particularly useful for lawn care specialists who need to wheel lawn mowers on and off the trailer all day. 

PICKER’S DELIGHT

Are you the type of person who can’t help themselves when someone has put something on the curb with a ‘free’ sign? Is garage sale season your time to shine? It’s hard to haul all of those newfound gems home in the back of your car. Your utility trailer will help you get all of your treasures home, safe and sound.

PROPERTY MANAGER’S PARTNER
