OK, I know there is a forum for this, but I don't want to travel, just find one locally, closer the better, that is why I have posted it in the NW section. Please moderators, give me a break on this! :thumbsup: Looking for a flatbed type trailer. Want a single axle, either 14 or 15" wheels, preferred is the 15" 5 lug. Would consider a landscape type with the flip down tailgate and sides or one with low sides, ie 12 to 24" high or so. No "home brewed stuff" unless you are a master craftsman and I wont be able to tell the difference. If your in beginning metalshop, not interested. :applause: I need to be able to haul 2 quads, or several bikes or to haul the grandsons race bikes around. No enclosed please, I have one already. Would like one 10 feet long by about 7 feet wide, but a 6X12 would work, but be my second choice. If you have one for sale or know someone who has one for sale, just drop me a PM.

just purchased a utility trailer in the Portland Oregon area this last weekend. we had it custom made. 6x8 with 24"sides & 35" rail, drop down ramp gate, metal sides. very good construction and am very happy with it. this guy can custom make any trialer you want. his website address is www.ms-trailer.com and his name is Mike. very helpful guy and does excellent work and has a lifetime guarantee on his construction of the trailer ie; welds breaking or anything structurally breaking on the trailer. not if you run it into a tree or damage it, that is user error. give him a call and tell him Randy sent you. you will be happy you did.

I also was looking for a used one but found that to get what I wanted, there would had to have been alot of modification to it and I did not have the tools to manufacture anything. New was definitely the last option for me but I got what I wanted. good luck. PM me if you have any questions about the referral

It came with a 4' mesh gate that I only use when needed. My wife bought me this for my birthday last year. She shopped around and found the best price at Bulldog trailers in Chehalis.
