Equipment & Tilt Trailers
Deck-Over Equipment Haulers
Deck-over equipment haulers feature a bed positioned above the wheels, providing additional deck width and ground clearance. This setup is commonly used for transporting larger equipment and wider loads that extend beyond standard trailer widths.
Low-Profile Tilt Trailers
Low-profile tilt trailers are designed with a reduced deck height to improve loading angles. The tilt function allows equipment to be loaded without ramps, making them a practical option for heavier machinery and frequent loading.
Deck-Over Tilt Trailers
Deck-over tilt trailers combine a wider deck with a tilting platform, allowing for the transport of larger equipment while simplifying the loading process. This configuration is often used when both deck space and loading efficiency are priorities.
Low-Profile Equipment Haulers
Low-profile equipment haulers sit closer to the ground, which helps reduce loading angles and improve stability during transport. They’re commonly used for hauling machinery such as skid steers, tractors, and compact equipment across job sites.

Equipment Trailers & Tilt Trailers
Equipment and tilt trailers are designed for hauling machinery, vehicles, and equipment, similar to setups used with gooseneck trailers or larger deckover trailers depending on load size.
With a range of deck configurations, including standard, deck-over, and tilt designs, these trailers provide options based on how equipment is loaded, transported, and supported under load.
Equipment & Tilt Trailer Types
Big Tex offers several styles depending on the type of equipment being hauled:
Deck-Over Equipment Haulers
Provide additional deck width and ground clearance with a bed positioned above the wheels. Commonly used for larger equipment and wider loads.
Low-Profile Equipment Haulers
Sit closer to the ground to reduce loading angles and improve stability. Often used for tractors, skid steers, and compact equipment.
Super-Wide Equipment Haulers
Offer extended deck width for oversized equipment, combining additional space with a low-profile design for easier loading.
Low-Profile Tilt Trailers
Use a tilting deck to allow equipment to be loaded without ramps. Lower deck height helps improve loading angles for heavier machinery.
Deck-Over Tilt Trailers
Combine a wider deck with a tilting platform, making them suitable for transporting larger equipment while maintaining efficient loading.
Tilt Trailers vs Equipment Trailers:
Choosing between tilt trailers and standard equipment haulers depends on how you load and transport your equipment.
Tilt trailers are typically used when:
- You want to load equipment without ramps
- You frequently load and unload machinery
- You need a faster, more streamlined loading process
Equipment haulers are typically used when:
- You need a fixed deck for consistent transport
- You’re hauling a variety of equipment sizes
- You prefer ramp-based loading setups
Choosing the Right Setup
When selecting a trailer, consider how it will perform under load:
- Weight Capacity (GVWR): Match the trailer to your equipment weight
- Deck Configuration: Choose between standard, deck-over, or tilt based on loading needs
- Axle Setup: Heavier loads may require tandem or triple axle support
- Loading Method: Tilt decks vs ramps can impact speed and ease of use
