Why Choose an Enclosed Car Hauler?

An enclosed car hauler keeps your vehicle out of rain, sun, road salt and flying debris, and the locking doors add security when you stop overnight.

Shows, Track Days and Collectors

Arrive with a clean, dry vehicle. An enclosed trailer is a common choice for car shows, racing and collectors who want to protect paint and interiors.

A Rolling Garage

Bring tires, tools, spare parts and a cart along with the vehicle and keep it all locked up in one place.

More Than Cars

The same trailer can haul motorcycles, UTVs, equipment and business cargo when you are not moving a vehicle.

5×8 Enclosed Cargo Trailer Specifications

Towing Your 5×8 Enclosed Cargo Trailer

Before you hit the road, confirm that your tow vehicle, hitch and ball are rated for the fully loaded weight of the trailer, up to the 2990 lbs GVWR. Use a brake controller when the trailer has electric brakes, and check tire pressure, lights, safety chains and coupler before every trip.

Load heavier items slightly ahead of the axles so the trailer has proper tongue weight, and secure every load with rated straps or chains. For general towing safety guidance, see the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Choosing the Right Enclosed Car Hauler

Before you choose this 5×8 enclosed cargo trailer or any other trailer, start with your heaviest load. Add the weight of the cargo, straps, tools and anything else you carry, then compare that total to the trailer’s payload, which is the GVWR minus the empty trailer weight. Leave some margin so you are not running at the limit on every trip.

Next, measure. Check the length and width of what you haul, plus room to walk around it and secure it. Then confirm that your tow vehicle’s rating, hitch class and brake controller match the loaded trailer.

For enclosed car haulers, check interior height and width, ramp door length and angle, and tie-down options for your vehicle’s ground clearance.

5×8 Enclosed Cargo Trailer Care and Maintenance

• Check tire pressure and tread before every trip, including the spare.
• Test the lights, wiring and breakaway system, if equipped.
• Service wheel bearings on the schedule in the owner’s manual.
• Check brakes, suspension and U-bolts for wear or damage.
• Look over the frame, welds, deck and coupler for cracks or loose hardware.
• Inspect roof seams, door seals and vents for leaks.
• Wash off road salt and dirt, especially after winter driving.

Following the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule helps your trailer last longer and keeps it safe on the road.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between GVWR and payload?

GVWR is the maximum allowed weight of the trailer and its load together. Payload is how much cargo you can add, which is the GVWR minus the trailer’s empty weight.

Do I need trailer brakes?

Brake requirements vary by state and are usually based on the loaded trailer weight. Check your state’s rules and the trailer’s brake setup before towing.

What is the GVWR of this 5×8 enclosed cargo trailer?

The GVWR is 2990 lbs. That is the maximum weight of the trailer plus its load, so subtract the trailer’s empty weight to find how much cargo it can carry.

Is this 5×8 enclosed cargo trailer new or used?

This trailer is listed as new.

Can I carry things other than vehicles?
