HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 мар 2020
- Today we're taking you on an in-depth tour of our 2020 enclosed trailer setup and just honestly what to look out for as you upgrade your trailer setup this spring. There's more investments to be made as you purchase a new trailer than just the trailer as you can imagine, so I wanted to break that all down for you guys.
This was one of the most requested topics back on our 80K subscriber video, was just to explain more about our trailer setup and the thought process of why everything is placed the way it is, and a full break down of what everything costs.
I hope you guys enjoy the video, I really tried to think about all the questions I had when I was looking to upgrade to a larger enclosed trailer 3 and a half years ago. I know how much of a struggle it was financially for us to make an investment like this, and all of the millions of questions I had along the way! Hope you guys enjoy!

Crushed it as usual. Looking to upgrade to an enclosed trailer at the end of this year. Thanks for all you do!
Nice video Brian! I love seeing inclosed setups. Just last season I went from a utility trailer to a box truck setup. I love it so much more just like you mentioned. My box truck was a used 14' Penske truck so the yellow really sticks out. I'm currently getting it wrapped and that was just under $3,000, but it'll be a nice rolling billboard for my business. I don't think I'll ever go back to an open trailer. Have a great 2022 season!
Thank you Brian! Great info!
Every video is very helpful!
You really know your stuff!
Just bought my new trailer. Went with 2019 Wells Cargo enclosed trailer. 8 x 20 with the 5,000 lbs axle. I decide not to go with roof vents because with time they get beat up by sun. Eventually i started having small leaks there from my past experience. Man im so happy with my new trailer! Ready for the season.
This video is my playbook for working on my 2022 enclosed trailer - thank you again Brian for sharing with the Community. I just completed building two wood shelves located in the same location as your workbench area. Trailer is 7x16 Sure-Trac Pro-Series with 7' wide, I can not place the Kombi under the workbench. All good. Just ordered that TRAILER-AID product from Amazon - single unit on sale today.
Well done, comprehensive tutorial on trailer buying. Thank you!
Great Video Brian! Without a doubt, you provide the most informational and useful content on youtube for the aspiring lawn professional! The tips you provide saves people time and money which are the two most important things we have...Great advice on the axles and sockets for the tires...hopefully we all survive this virus and start cutting grass soon! Just having fun..haha Keep up the great work! Thanks!
Hey thanks man I appreciate that. We try really hard. I know what you mean with saving time and money, videos like this, even as simple as they are, were so critical for me back when I was trying to upgrade. Unfortunately there just weren’t as many videos like this back then, which stunk, but I appreciated every time I did stumble across a good one. Thanks for watching!
These trailers are so smart. Non of the grounds maintenance contractors have these in the UK as they tend to either have a open trailer which is either flat bed or a open trailer with side panels or a large van with panel, pickup or flatbed body styles. The one thing I like about these trailers you have in the USA is that they are so well laid out inside and it stops undesirable people eyeing up your equipment to steal.
Awesome set up man! Your trailer give me something to shoot for. I am definately with you on the enclosed trailers, I have a 6X10 for now.
I went with an all aluminum trailer the payload is so much more. My payload Is 5300lbs. Having that extra weight gives me price of mind not over weighing it. Plus It will never rust out great video love to see other guys setups thanks
Another great video, Brian! The green industry is so awesome, and you are such an inspiring leader in the community. So cool to see how everyone is so supportive and willing to share tips and trick so that everyone can succeed! Keep up the good work! And you know this, but we appreciate your trust in Sure-Trac. Thank you.
Thanks fam!
Just went from a 6x10 to a sure-trac 8.5x20 used your code a proven locks for the front add back. Also order the halo view back up and side camera. Will help a lot when backing up. Crazy spent almost 20k setting trailer up
Thank you for taking your time to make this video and share your thoughts.
Perfect timing. I’m buying my first enclosed trailer this week. Now I have some additional knowledge that will assist me in making the correct choice. Thank you for taking your time to help those of us who are new to the business.
You bet buddy. Congrats on your upgrade, exciting times!
I just went into business this year. My first trailer is a 2020 Haulmark 6x12 enclosed. It's getting lettered next week, setup will happen afterwards, so this video comes at the right time for me.
Nice pal, congrats on the upgrades
Get the Camco to vent covers. They protect the vent lids and also allow you to leave them open all the time without rain getting inside.
drinking game: take a shot every time brian says "just having fun" still love the videos though
We’d definitely have a channel full of alcoholics at this point
Great video Brian, over the past 30 years I’ve owned at least a half a dozen different trailers, I’d like to point out however the skylight a number of years back I had a break-in in which they entered through the skylight and Removed quite a few of our tools
Wow crazy
Thanks for the tips! God bless! Love the trailer!
Hey Brian... I just got my enclosed trailer. Thanks for the video, this is great info to know.
That's awesome Keith, congrats!
Suggestion. The space between the front of the trailer that ends and to the hitch, you can add a spare tire and a tool box and other misc stuff there. You are towing empty space that you could put some stuff there to free up space in your enclosed trailer..
Also a thought is to put a 5 gallon jug a little high on the door in the inside, so when you open it, there's a 5 gallon jug so people may drink water.
Hope this helps out a little.
Great video and please keep posting... :)
great tip!
Awsome video! Wanting to get out of my factory job some day!
Cool video great content! Tha ks for the transparency! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Great video! Ordered a 7x16 enclosed to replace my 5x10. I’m excited to build out the inside. Something to note, going with an eight or ten ply tire is worth the money. The trailer will pull so much easier.
Yep always go bigger doesn't take long to out grow your surroundings.
Great video. Very insightful.
Another option of security is chaining your front tires around the leaf springs.with a good wheel lock , 1st chain supply sells a high security chain and locks that might be a option for open and enclosed trailers
I evaluated wheel locks, but those are easier to pick or remove the tire then even a coupler lock. Again, can’t hurt, but locks are a funny topic.
Love the ceiling storage
Thanks for the informative video Brian. If i were getting a inclosed trailer i would want the roof vents. In addition to keeping the temperature down they also allow the gas fumes to escape so they don't hit you when you open the trailer
Anthony Deveno bingo! Great points.
They all have upper side vents (not roof vents). Roof vents leak, whereas upper side vents will vent while driving without leaking.
I appreciate your time and information
When I bought mine from Kelley & Sons, Sue told me that since everyone was wanting the work bench & cabinets, she decided to order all Landscape Pro trailers with them all really in it. Also, Sure-Trac must have listened to you when you pointed out in your (Sure-Trac Trailer In-depth walk around) video, on that you had to install a bumper for the side door, because they now come with a bumper for the door.
Jeremy Lane hey those upgrades both make sense! Can’t say that it was because of us but, I do know that those guys listen to their end users and enjoy that type of feedback. Classy company 💯
Thank you for everything you do bro, 👍🏽
Great vlog Brian love your trailer setup
My roof vents got broken last year from a storm and I baught the new metal ones of Amazon 30 bucks don't buy plastic ones they break easy dry rot to
Dean Rivers Edge Landscaping good tip never knew metal ones existed.
Awesome information!!! 💯🤙🏻
Great video, thank you for sharing
As an 18 year old landscaper I’m aiming for $300-$500 per week but am starting to see some weeks here and there closer to $750. No where near a full time I come, but I’m in year two and consistently growing.
Great vid Brian.
Thanks for sharing. Great info brother!!! We copied similar styles. Ballard has great stuff
Good point on parking space considerations in certain neighborhoods. Mail vehicles also give the evil eye if they can't pull up to the boxes. Btw... nice Tesla jacket👍 It'll come soon enough🙂 Good video!
Thanks buddy
Great video Brian, nice Tesla jacket! I run a 2019 Pace American 8.5 x 18 enclosed trailer!
Dale Nienow nice! Pace and Wells Cargo also make great trailers 💯
Brian's Lawn Maintenance yeah I had my trailer this will be the third season now I had nothing wrong with it but one flat tire! And the side vents really help to for summer!
Most people don't think about the axles until they start having to replace them. The biggest plus to the 5200# axles is bigger hubs so bigger bearings and brakes.
Awesome setup my friend! 2020 is going to be a great year!
AndysLawnCare andOutdoorAdventures I am in agreement!
Hi Brian! This is Sam Hanson from Bismarck North Dakota! This winter I bought an enclosed trailer for my snow equipment. I bought a 7’x 14’, But I had them put in 5000 pound axles, two vents with 12 V fans in the vents, and three utility lights. Oh, and I also put in from the outside electrical plug-ins! I had to raise the height of the inside of the trailer because I’ve got a John Deere snowblower with a cab on it and so I had to make room for the cab! Was is it overkill, maybe, but it’s a sweet trailer! 👍 Sincerely, Sam Hanson 😎🇺🇸
Sam Hanson thats awesome Sam! Wish you the best ha
Great Vlog, Hi from New Zealand...
I gave a thumbs up for the Ramp Spring Tip alone. Where was this video 2 years ago, I almost broke my finger, and lost countless hours, for something that took 2 hours taking it to someone and getting a pro to set it. I did research galore, and had all of the schematics on how to set it, but never could get them both at the same tension.
Yeah pal those things are no joke
I bought a 6x12 enclosed trailer last year. It does the job just fine. But I do agree that a 7x14 would be better. Only issue with that is I have a lot of customers who live on narrow streets. I feel bad enough parking out front of their house. Lol
I use Lazer lockers to secure my equipment, guess Exmark doesn't make them any more. However Ballard Inc. sells a power locker. DOT compliant and a time saver
Thank you Brian!
From where I should buy the proven industries lock?
Those tung locks are the best trailer locks.
learned a bunch Just bought a 8x20 For the sign shop
I just got a 6 by 12 enclosed upgraded from a 5 by 10 and loving it so far
What size mower do you use? I was thinking of a 6' but I am worried once the weedeater and blower racks get installed it'll be a really tight fit with a 52" mower.
@@Draega007 yes it possibly will be but you could always put your other equipment in the truck bed... or put the racks closer to the front that way you drive your mower out first and you have room. If you have a side door hook a blower rack to it for easy accessibility.
Those Goodyear tires are the only thing I will put on my trailer now. I dislike Goodyear tires in general, but their trailers tires are pretty bullet proof.
Brian keep doing your thing fam , been following you for 2 years now ,you done saved me so much money keep doing your thing , you are the shit , you katz better listen to Brian he is the real deal👍🏾
Lol thx pal
Informative video. Thanks 👍
Love the tesla jacket
Sounds like a plan can't wait til I get my Tesla! 👍
I just ordered my trailer 8.5/20🤟
🔥
Great video right now I’m 15 and looking to buy an enclosed trailer for this summer so I can keep my things in it and not in my shed but then of course next summer when I get mylicense of course I still would be using the trailer this summer and I have 2 zero turns one being a gravely mid mount and the other being a grasshopper front mount mower and then of course like two blowers two weedeaters and a push mower as well as five or six gas cans do you think The best idea would be to buy it used or new I would think used just because at this point in my life I don’t have 10 grand to throw at a trailer because you know I want to still have some money left over keep up the good work. Hopefully everything goes well I just found a new 8.5x16 ft enclosed trailer a vnose prayin everything goes well.
Great video
Sorry Brian all the tp at Costco is gone. I'll be switching to an enclosed this year. I'll be keeping my open trailer for landscaping work but I wanted somthing I could keep my equipment inside in. I was considering building another garage but the county wouldn't let me because I already have a garage the same size as my house and apparently you can't build a garage or shed bigger than your house.
Your my go do guy thank you
Great content (as usual)! Great tips! Thanks Brian! Nice jacket - I think I'll get one (do you have a code for Tesla stuff yet? Lol). ;-)
Matt Pahuta LoL thanks Matt. I don’t think Brians10 works with Tesla. 😝
Cool video man
Great video with tons of advice. Thank you. I just gotta ask.... how do you fill up all your mowers and equipment? do you just have like 10+ 5 gallon cans laying around? I'm only on a 5x10 looking to upgrade but I like being able to pull into the pump and gas my mower up. Again thanks for the video.
We refuel every day in the evening. But yeah one tank of mower gas lasts all day for us. But, we always carry 3-5 gallons of regular fuel, usually 4 gallons of 2mix
I love that your trailer and truck match. looks sharp. With a black truck, would a black trailer be super hot in the summer?
Potentially sure
I love your new intro
Speaking of the Etrack if your buying a cargo trailer or having one built have your Etrack welded to the frames. It's a huge difference on support. I have 2 strips going down the middle and 2 strips running horizontally on both side. Brian is exactly correct on the locks why in the world would you have 10 - 20k in equipment and a cheap lock. You get what you pay for.
Great info
They have ratchet straps with e track fittings on both ends. Skip the whole hooking onto the etrack d ring. Also no possibility of it coming off
Great video 👍
Hey Brian, I just upgraded my trailer from an open trailer to a enclosed trailer. I need some cabinets. Where did tou get your cabinets?. Great video!!!!
Nice man! These were a manufacturing option from the build out.
Excellent
Hey Brian, I don’t know if you’ve done it in your new trailer, have you thought about putting a vice on your workbench over in the corner?
We haven't, simply because we don't really need one to wrench on much for a mow trailer.
New trailers are so hard to find right now where I'm at. At least 12 weeks before they even know what kind are getting shipped to them.
New intro. Nice. I like the white background. Surprised you didn't go red 😂
Haha my brother made it in a jif! We’ll see if we keep it :)
Beautiful set uip
great video
Nice video! You even make a video about hanging the fire extinguisher and couldn’t find it. 😂😂
Lol dude I’m so rusty, it’s early spring!
What's it like driving the enclosed trailer? Do you have to avoid city streets and are there customers you can't service because it's a dead end with no turn around? And what's it like driving that on the highway, changing lanes etc. It seems like you would need some great driving skills.
Than k you for the info! Here is a tip for you, consider buying a small jump pack (capacitor) for low batteries. They are small, efficient, charge quickly and under a $100.00. A real time saver.for trucks and equipment. .I would recommend the Audew or Top Vision, with a minimum of 2200amh. I am not sponsered, but know what works for me and others.
Ron Anderson very neat I will check that out thanks!
I have a jump pack/ air compressor (70 bucks at Walmart) and i use it all the time. It keeps me from patching my leaky tire tho lol
6 minutes in, you wanna wrap it up in 5 and there's still 10 minutes of video after that... lol. Love your videos, Brian! I just made my first money as a lawn care business owner! It's gonna be a good year! #goals
Quinton Hudson 5-7 minutes: that’s Latin for 20 on BLM youtube lol
@@BriansLawnMaintenance I should know this by now watching all your videos, but I don't... Go figure lol
The longer the video the better!
Thanks!
We love the long videos
Loaded man purse 😂 LOL JK, video filled with loads of great information. Nice job Brian!
Lol :)
@@BriansLawnMaintenance :)
great videos
Awesome video. But damn it Brian, that trailer looking pretty rough on the outside. Lol
lol I know. She’s getting a major overhaul next week!
I also think you need a 5 gallon water tank on the ground with a 12volt high pressure pump from an RV/boat and a 25’ coiled hose to wash the dog poop off the mower wheels. I hate the smell of dog poop in the trailer or on my mower.
looks like its about time for a new leaf rake buddy. You shoulda came down to ga for your enclosed. That one would probably cost around 4k down here.
Yeah but then my local dealer goes out of business and I have to drive to GA for service. And plus, the trailer might be $200 cheaper, not $4,000.
Just got my first strata contact.
Hey Brian, Awesome Video, I watched One of your video's a few month's ago and you mentioned Dewalt Making Stand on mowers, Any chance You can Demo One and Let us know, I am Curious , I might Be in the market in the next year for a new mower.Thanks Brian always enjoy your video's. Tip Top lawn Downriver, Michigan.
We will be here soon! Another few weeks 🤘
Where’d you get your red cabinets from
How does the trailer aid work again?
Excellent video. Did you install the plywood on the walls of the trailer or did it come that way? Do you know if it's 1/2" or 3/4" ? Also, where did you purchase the spare tire rack? Thanks
They came with it. I think they’re 1/4 or 1/2”. The tire rack was an upgrade from the manufacturer.
@@BriansLawnMaintenance You sure? Was wondering how the racks were attached to the walls. Did you install them? 1/4" or even 1/2" is not a lot of material to hold a screw. Especially with a trailer that could be a little bouncy..
Bro greatly appreciated information!! I’m Starting This Spring
Andre Miller Wish you nothing but the best pal!
When you're licensed, what does that consist of? I've been doing work for the last couple of years and am trying to get an official company established myself in the state I live.
Bri., it's a great set up Fo Sho!! Now you know my set up is no where near that elaborate. If you take any 2 cents worth of advice from me it would be to get small magnet rolls or sheet magnets & a small labeling machine & label what you have in each cabinet on the inside of each door. This way you can change out the lists as your needs change inside each cabinet. Hoping all is well Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!
Money Making Mike G. That’s not a bad idea at all! 3MG always with the pro tips! 👊
@@BriansLawnMaintenance Anyway I can pay back 1% of how much you helped me!! Hoping it works out Bud.
Hey Brian, recent fan but been enjoying a lot of the content, I literally come home from work and wonder what the algorithm of you tube has provided me with BLM..... my question for you is, what does a weekend warrior lawn maintenance guy need? Does he need a trailer? A little red wagon perhaps?
I bought my own vinyl cutter off eBay 15 years ago. I think I paid $800. And I can do up to 4ft wide signs. It’s not hard to do
When it comes to the E Track, (I understand putting them on the floor to tie down your equipment to the floor). But when it comes to future growth, if you are able to, have you thought about putting it right above the fenders? That way it will reduce all the junk that will get in them & you are able to tie down other things in the future?
Jeremy Lane I haven’t considered that. That’s not a bad idea. I just don’t know if I can bolt thru the fenders or sidewalls like I can with the thick floor. Thoughts?
Brian's Lawn Maintenance You could try putting it on the fenders, but I was actually referring to putting it on the walls just above the fenders..... With all the equipment that you have on the walls, not sure how high you can put it on the walls. I’m not sure on what is the correct way to install it on the walls, but I have seen a video or two which people have installed it on their walls. If you able to, you wouldn’t have to deal with all the junk getting in the E Track.
Brian's Lawn Maintenance here is a video of a guy installing the E Track on the walls of his enclosed trailer. ruclips.net/video/i9PJFICm0IA/видео.html
Brian's Lawn Maintenance here is another video that you can look at when installing the E Track to the walls of an enclosed trailer. ruclips.net/video/j4_AG-WFGTw/видео.html
If one thing I comment is definitely have a spare tire and tire plug kit and portable air pump didn’t see you had a tire plug get definitely get one on Amazon
Hi Brian, great video. I am in the process of ordering my trailer and was asked if I want to add an additional six inches to the heigh making the inside 6ft 6in. Did you do this or recommend it?
Couldn’t hurt! I think mine is 6’6” maybe?
