Bam Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Looking around before possibly buying a new one. Something in the 4'-6' wide by 6'-8' long for using around the house. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky31186 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Best bet is to buy used. Hill equipment normally has good deals.. lowes had a couple on sale. Just sold my 5x8 for 600$ and my 6x10 with drop gate and tall sides for 1k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zx2guy19 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I just picked up a 5x8 on Craigslist in awesome shape. The lady bought it from Lowe's for like $650 and used it to move from NC to Columbus, then sold it to recoup some money. I got a wicked deal.

Bam Posted October 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Yeah I've been looking on Craigslist but we all know how that goes. Tractor supply has a 5x8 with ramp for $600 so I'm using that as my gauge on used pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dakotart Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Harbor Freight has fairly inexpensive utility trailers I have one from there. Built a wood deck on top with 2x6 and 3/4 plywood. It's 6x8' and have under $200 in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you buy it like decades ago? They don't even have a 6x8 trailer and the cheapest one I'm seeing is $300 for a 4x8 and I'd still need wood and hardware to attach it so it'd be like $400.

I think from someone on here for $100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRTurbo04 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I found the frame used. I think from someone on here for $100 I think that was me, quick easy little thing. Should be able to find something like that online or from craigslist for just 100-200 bucks if that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zx2guy19 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 http://columbus.craigslist.org/tro/5833477137.html Could probably get this for $400: http://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/5822440078.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First one is overkill for what I want, 2nd one is more what I'm looking for but I can get a new 4x6 with mesh floor and ramp for $465 so still a bit too pricey. $300ish is where I'd want to used, otherwise I'll just jump on the new one and not have to worry about fixing someone else's stuff.
