Trailer Finder
What horse trailer should I get?
Bumper pull or gooseneck, straight or slant, how many stalls -- the right trailer depends on horse count and your tow vehicle. Answer a few questions and we'll match you to a configuration, or browse the table below.
| Result | Best for |
|---|---|
| Bumper Pull, Straight-Load | For budget-friendly hauling of 1-2 horses |
| Bumper Pull, Slant-Load | For hauling multiple horses with a more efficient footprint |
| Gooseneck Trailer | For hauling larger groups or wanting maximum stability |
How this quiz works
The Trailer Finder asks how many horses you typically haul, whether your tow vehicle has a gooseneck hitch and whether you want extra tack or living quarters space. It points you to a bumper pull straight-load, a bumper pull slant-load or a gooseneck trailer.
Why these questions
Trailers differ in capacity, stability and the vehicle they need. A bumper pull is simpler and cheaper and suits one or two horses, a slant load fits more horses in a shorter length, and a gooseneck is more stable and roomier but needs a hitch in the bed of the truck.
What the quiz cannot see
It cannot see your vehicle's ratings. The towing capacity on your own vehicle, hitch and trailer is what counts, and a loaded trailer weighs far more than an empty one. Check it with the Towing Capacity Calculator, and have a professional inspect your setup if you are unsure.
Before you decide
Check the numbers on your own vehicle first: the towing capacity, the hitch rating, the gross combined weight and the payload. Then add the trailer's weight and the horses and gear in it. Look at the floor, the frame, the tires, the brakes and the lights, and have a professional inspect a used trailer. Practice loading, hitching, backing and braking before you haul.
