About Cattle Trailers
Transwest partners with the best brands in cattle trailers to bring you models including Cimarron and more. For owners who make long-distance trips or spend a lot of time at shows and events, a living quarters cattle trailer will provide you with a place to stay on the road. A non-living quarters trailer is ideal for anyone who mainly needs the trailer to haul cattle to the vet, between pastures, or on short trips.
Our cattle trailers come in bumper pull and gooseneck styles. If you’re just getting into the cattle business, a budget-friendly bumper pull trailer may be the best option. Bumper pull trailers have a simple hitching system and do not require much extra equipment. If you have a large herd to haul or if you make frequent trips to events with your show cattle, the gooseneck trailer will provide you with lots of stability on the road. It also has a higher weight capacity. Choose between aluminum or steel options to find the best trailer for your needs and budget.
At Transwest, our goal is to keep your trailer in peak performance at all times. That’s why we offer a full line of light-duty cattle trailer parts and accessories: hitches, Trailer Saver products, Dexter axles, Bull Dog products, Firestone air springs, Tekonsha brake controllers, Equalizer electric jacks, and more. We also offer several different financing plans to fit your needs. If you have any questions or want to get started, give us a call today.
FAQs
How tall are cattle trailers?
Cattle trailers are typically 6 ft. 8 in. tall. For perspective, the average horse trailer stands between 7 ft. and 7 ft. 6 in. tall. The ideal size for your cattle or herd will vary, depending on the size of your cattle. In general, though, you should budget approximately 3 ft. 6 in. for each cow. When determining the ideal height and width of your trailer, make sure to consider the equipment, hay, and tack that you plan to haul along with your animals. Many owners prefer cattle trailers that are 6 ft. 8 in. tall and 8 ft. wide, because this gives the animals enough space to move about but keeps them secure from losing their footing. It also provides ample storage space for gear.
How many cattle can you load in a trailer?
This can vary greatly. It depends on the size and weight of your cattle as well as the height, width, length, model type, weight capacity, and floor layout of your trailer. The towing capacity of your truck will also limit the number of cattle you can load in the trailer. For example, if your cattle weigh 400 lbs., you can typically load 28 animals into a 24 ft. by 6 ft. trailer as long as the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVW) of your truck and trailer is at least 7,400 lbs. For 600-lb. cattle, you will likely be limited to 18 animals in a trailer of the same dimensions. Keeping your cattle in their compartments will help to reduce their movement, and that will give your trailer more stability on the road.
How do I choose a cattle trailer?
The first priority in choosing a cattle trailer should be keeping your cattle safe and comfortable. How much space will you need for each animal, and how many animals do you plan to haul at a time? What kind of towing vehicle do you plan to use to pull the trailer, and what is its towing capacity? All these factors will determine the size and type of trailer you choose. Gooseneck trailers are generally more spacious than bumper pull trailers. It is possible, though, to find small gooseneck trailers and larger bumper pull trailers.
Once you’ve determined the size of the trailer, decide on a budget, and consider how often you will use it. If you are on the more budget-conscious side or simply need to haul your cattle across town to the vet, then a bumper pull may be your best bet. If you plan to make frequent cross-country trips to take your show cattle to events, a gooseneck trailer with living quarters would be a good choice.
Can anyone tow a cattle trailer?
This depends on the size and style of the trailer. You may be able to haul a small bumper pull cattle trailer with a regular vehicle or SUV, so you likely won’t need a special license. For larger trailers such as gooseneck or living quarters, you will need a heavy-duty tow truck. You will not need a CDL as long as the combined weight of your towing vehicle and trailer is less than 26,001 lbs. However, you may still need a special license. For example, drivers in Illinois need a Class C license to operate tow trailers over 10,000 lbs. Check with your state government to find out the requirements for your area.
What towing capacity do I need for a cattle trailer?
The towing capacity of your vehicle should always be greater than the total loaded weight of the trailer. To determine these numbers, check the curb weight (or empty weight) of your trailer. You should be able to find this number printed in the owner’s manual or on the manufacturer’s site. Next, estimate the weight of your cattle plus hay, supplies, equipment, and anything else that will be loaded into the trailer. Add this number to the curb weight of your trailer, and that will calculate the trailer’s loaded weight.
The towing capacity of your truck or vehicle must be higher than this number in order to safely pull the trailer. You can find a vehicle’s towing capacity by checking the owner’s manual, the doorjamb of the vehicle, or the manufacturer’s site.
