What You Need to Consider When Kitting Out an Enclosed Trailer

Updated: Sep 14, 2023

Are you on the search for a reliable way to transport a heavy load? Whether it’s for motorsport, business, or travel, an enclosed trailer from KT Trailers in Tauranga is a no-brainer. But there’s more to it than just the trailer itself – here are three things to consider when kitting out an enclosed trailer.


1. What are you transporting?


First and foremost, what will you be carrying within your enclosed trailer? Is it a racing kart? A pair of dirt bikes? Furniture? Camping gear? Tradie tools? What you plan to put inside your enclosed trailer will determine not only the size you select, but also how you set up the interior.



Consider your content’s weight, height, and girth. And if you’ve got more than one item to transport – two motorbikes, for instance – you’ll need to make sure they both have enough space without being crammed on top of one another.


Your enclosed trailer should be durable enough to handle the weight of your gear, and you want everything to fit in comfortably and safely.


2. Features and specs


Next up, it’s time to think about its features and specifications – and for trailer enthusiasts like the team at KT Trailers, this is the fun part!


We love hearing what our customers have in mind in terms of racks, shelving, and tie downs. We take the time to consider which type of doors are most suitable, and make sure there’s sufficient storage space for any extras from tools to helmets to camping gear.


We also think about other features of enclosed trailers that may not have crossed your mind, like non-slip floors, windows, tool boxes, ventilation, and more. The possibilities are endless, and specs can range from bare bones to complex – it all depends on what you need your enclosed trailer for and how you plan to use it.


3. A vehicle to tow your enclosed trailer


Now that your enclosed trailer is strong, durable, and designed specifically for you, it’s time to turn your attention towards the hitch – specifically what that hitch will be connected to.


You need a vehicle with the towing capacity to carry your enclosed trailer and all your gear. Choose a vehicle with enough engine power, a suitable transmission, and reliable suspension – and your wallet will thank you if you spare a thought for fuel efficiency, too.
