Assembling the Utility Trailer

  1. 2
    Check local weight regulations regarding independent brakes. If you are building a trailer that is intended to carry heavy loads, it will need its own brakes. Not installing brakes on a heavy trailer can make it prone to jackknifing, and is illegal.
    • If you are intending to use the trailer in multiple countries/states/provinces, check the local weight regulations in each region you are likely to visit. For example, in Canada, the weight cutoff varies from 910 kg to 4,500 kg, depending on the province.[3]
