     If you find yourself in need of a used trailer, buying used can save you a significant amount of money or get you a trailer that’s larger and/or more feature-packed than new trailers in your price range. That being said, there are a handful of things to consider before you pull the trigger on a pre-owned unit
Know Your Needs
The first step in buying a used semi-trailer is figuring out exactly what you need. It’s a good idea to find out if the truck is compatible with certain kinds of trailers or if there are any special considerations you need to keep in mind while conducting your search.
Budget
    Another big part is determining your budget. Visit our main website  of  to browse the trailer and used semi trucks listings, paying particular attention to prices and ages of the trailers. From there you can have an idea what kind of inventory we have. We got great selection of used semi freightliners and used semi volvo trucks.

 

Flooring
Flooring in the trailer is another important consideration. Aluminum flooring tends to result in a trailer that’s lighter, but wood flooring lets you secure loads to the planks and eventually replace the boards when they become worn. Aluminum flooring is also adequate for hauling sand, soft dirt, and gravel, but concrete blocks and debris will require steel flooring, which can increase the cost and weight of the trailer considerably.
Reefer Unit
If you’re looking for a used reefer trailer, pay particular attention to the age of the refrigeration components. Typically, sellers will be able to tell you the number of hours the refrigeration unit has been active. An average trailer of this type can rack up between 1,200 and 1,500 hours per year.
