1. Consider the Material

Enclosed trailers tend to be made of either aluminum or steel. Both materials come with their own advantages.

Aluminum enclosed trailers:

• tend to be lighter, which makes them easier to tow
• tend to cost less in gas to tow
• are more immune to rust, saving you money on rust-related repairs

Steel enclosed trailers:

• tend to last longer
• are more immune to general wear and tear, saving you money on overall maintenance
• are more commonly worked on by welders, which can make it easier to find a repair shop

2. Consider the Outer Skin Thickness

Next, think about how thick you want the outer thickness to be. Thicker skin will cost more money, but it will also last longer and be less vulnerable to temperature changes. If you will be hauling the trailer in tough weather conditions, you'll want to invest in thicker outer skin. If you will be using the trailer in mild conditions or you have a tighter budget, you'll want a thinner skin.

3. Consider the Roof

Roofs on enclosed trailers tend to be either rounded or flat.

Flat roof models:

• tend to be the more affordable option
• can collect rainwater and other debris more easily, which increases the roof cleaning needs

Rounded roof models:

• tend to cost more
• offer a bit more internal height
• allow rain and debris to more easily roll off, which reduces the roof cleaning time

4. Consider the Enclosed Trailer Size

Finally, think about how big you want your enclosed trailer to be. Models tend to be between 5' and 8.5' wide and between 8' and 32' long. Think about the size of the largest load you want to haul, then shop enclosed trailers accordingly.
