About Livestock Gooseneck Trailers

With a strong towing connection and high weight capacity, our inventory of gooseneck livestock trailers is the best way to transport large herds of livestock. Gooseneck livestock trailers feature a long arm or neck that fastens to a ball hitch in the bed of your towing truck. This system gives the trailer a highly stable towing connection, allowing you to haul more weight. They are a great option for anyone with heavy equipment or lots of livestock.

Gooseneck livestock trailers are also perfect for transporting livestock over long distances. Thanks to the strength of the gooseneck hitch, these trailers are easy to maneuver and typically experience little sway on the road, even in unfavorable weather conditions. Like their horse trailer cousins, these trailers come in both living quarters and non-living quarters. They’re designed to accommodate both the part-time traveler and those who spend a lot of time on the road. 

Your Transwest team is passionate about bringing you the best quality trailers and parts. We offer a full line of parts and accessories for your convenience and offer courtesy maintenance services to keep you on the road. No matter your budget or situation, we are sure to have a financing plan that suits your needs. Look through our online inventory and then get in touch with one of our experienced sales members today so we can help you find a trailer that suits you best.

Do I need a CDL to pull a gooseneck?

Not all gooseneck trailers require a CDL. However, if your trailer is over 26,000 lbs., you will most likely need one. In general, a Class A license is required if the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, or GVWR, of both the trailer and towing vehicle, is greater than 26,000 lbs. It’s also required if the trailer itself weighs more than 10,000 lbs. 

A Class B license is required if the GVWR of both vehicles exceeds 26,000 lbs. and your gooseneck trailer is less than 10,000 lbs. A Class C license is required if your trailer is being used to transport hazardous materials or more than 15 passengers. You should always check with the Department of Transportation and on your state’s official website to learn the most recent requirements for your area. If you are making a cross-country trip, don’t forget to check the requirements for each state that you will be passing through. 

What type of vehicle do I need to tow a gooseneck trailer?

Because gooseneck trailers have a more involved towing system than bumper pull trailers, they need to be hauled by a heavy-duty truck. The truck should always have a bed with a ball hitch to attach to the tongue of the gooseneck trailer. In order to find the right vehicle for your trailer, you must first calculate how much the loaded trailer will weigh. 

You can get this number by taking the curb weight (or empty weight) of your trailer and then estimating the weight of everything you plan to load onto the trailer – livestock, hay, gear, equipment, etc. Add those two numbers together to get the Gross Vehicle Weight Capacity or GVWC. Next, find your vehicle’s towing capacity. This number should be printed on the driver’s side door, in the owner’s manual, or on the manufacturer’s website. The towing capacity of your vehicle should always be higher than the trailer’s GVWC.

Can you pull a gooseneck trailer with a short bed truck?

This tends to be a case-by-case situation: some gooseneck trailers are compatible with short bed trucks, while others are not. Unlike a 5th wheel truck, which operates using a hinged plate or slider hitch, the gooseneck trailer uses a ball hitch that is anchored in the middle of the truck bed. Because of this, you may run into some clearance issues if you are trying to make a tight turn with a short bed truck. 

If you own a short bed truck, look for a gooseneck trailer that has a tapered front or an angled nose. This will help to ensure that the trailer clears the back of your vehicle during a tight turn. If you are in doubt about the trailer’s compatibility with your truck, check with the manufacturer before purchasing a trailer.

What are the advantages of a gooseneck trailer for livestock?

Size and stability are the two most significant advantages of a gooseneck trailer for livestock. Gooseneck trailers have a higher weight capacity than bumper pull trailers, so they are often larger and longer than their bumper pull counterparts. This is ideal for owners who have to transport large herds of sheep, cattle, and other types of livestock. There are also gooseneck horse trailers, which are perfect for hauling multiple horses over a long distance. 

Another benefit of using this type of trailer for livestock is stability. A gooseneck trailer’s weight is balanced over the rear axles instead of the frame. Unlike bumper pull trailers, gooseneck trailers rarely sway, even under harsh weather conditions on the road. This creates a safer and more comfortable ride for your animals. 

Does a gooseneck livestock trailer increase towing capacity?

Gooseneck livestock trailers have higher weight capacity because of their weight and size. Gooseneck trailers can be longer and wider, but don’t destabilize the towing vehicle. If you’re interested in the trailers with high towing capacities, a gooseneck trailer may be the right choice for you.

  • The team at Transwest helped me find the right trailer to haul my cows and calves. The whole experience was fantastic. I never felt pressured to make a decision. 10/10!
