Thinking about a 100% custom trailer idea for my construction company

[ROUSTABOUT]

Why come (southern dialect) you can't make I holder 4' in depth and however long you need. Then set them off onto the ground for loading and unloading. Another reason for a skid steer. Then you can set the frame of forms closer to where you be working. Also you can just buy a regular trailer or use one you have. I dont see why an over the wheel goose necker won't do just fine fer dat. Steel is high now days plus it's expensive and costs a lot. But people needing money and can find trailer deals.

I load cages of panels onto trailers in the yard with a big skid steer and have a boom truck to unload cages on jobsites, but half the time (or more), the jobs are either not big enough to warrant the boom truck or the site makes it not worth the effort to use the truck.

So that means you're climbing onto the trailer and walking a panel off it about 80 times...and then doing the same thing in reverse at the end of the job. Just walking up to the trailer and putting it on and then walking away would be faster and easier.

The bottom of the panels should be about a foot or more higher than where you are standing.

That makes sense. I try to handle sheets of plywood in the same manner.

I'd try contacting one, or more, of the myriad of small trailer builders that are around. This site lists many: Find a Trailer Manufacturer on TrailersUSA.com
