I need a good flatbed trailer and have a few steel ones but like the idea of having a lightweight aluminum trailer becuse of the weight reduction. how do these Aluma brand trailers god up?

Should i just buy a steel trailer and have a more heavy duty one??

thanks for the help

Fatigue is more of a problem with Aluminum than Steel. Something to consider if you plan on putting a lot of miles on the trailer.

I purchased a Continental Cargo landscape trailer, everything aluminum except wheel bogies. Wheels are galvanized. Just bought it last year, so can't comment on longevity, but a non rusting trailer sure looks nicer, and will need far less maintenance (sandblast, paint, repeat).
