Lowe’s trailers look kinda flimsy to me,Tractor Supply trailers look a little heavier duty.

I got my Load Trail from Truck and Trailer World in Denham and have no complaints.

avoid lowes or home depot like the plague
tractor supply trailers are much better built and stronger with bigger axles under them

I had one custom built to my specs for not much more than you'd pay for one these mass produced trailers...
I used Bayou Trailers in Bay Saint Louis, MS

I just shopped them myself but did not make a purchase because the store did not have the title!!
THD has the best deal and the best trailer IMHO. I looked at Lowes and TSC and THD. THD was rated for a bigger load.
THD is has pipe steel sides that can be turned down allowing for a wider load and they have good wheels and tires with easy to grease bearings.
I tried to buy one at the Covington store and NONE of the titles they had matched the serial numbers of their inventory.
There were like $1400. This is the one I was going to buy. LINK
Let me know what you think. I am still in the market.

^what a ripoff^
I got a true(floor of trailer) 7'x 14' with back ramp gate, tube top and a 4' side gate rated for 7500# w/ e rated radial tires , for $1800 at Bayou Trailers
this was 2yrs ago, so price of steel and materials may vary since then.

Lowe’s
I have had a Lowe's 5'x 8' for about 10 years with no complaints.
When I bought it I told the check out chick you're supposed to give me a title for the trailer. She sent me to the customer service desk where manager chick had no idea what a trailer title was. After explaining it to her she looked around for a good while and found a folder with all the trailer titles. She picked a random title out the folder and said here's your title. I had to further explain that the title serial # had to match the trailer serial #

may be an unpopular choice but I have had no problem with my big Tex. Needs more and better placed tie downs though

We have a couple truck and trailer world trailers that have had no problems with. One when sat under water for a couple days in the 2016 flood. Had to change boards but still good to go.

A little off topic, but yesterday I saw someone picking up something at Lowe’s with a Home Depot rental trailer

Just my two cents, but a dual axle trailer rides your cargo so much smoother. Looks like you have to get into a 14' to get a second axle.
