Frequently Asked Questions about Trailers for Sale in Illinois
In Illinois, you'll find a wide variety of trailers for sale, including equipment trailers, flatbed trailers, enclosed cargo trailers, refrigerated van trailers, dump trailers, and lowboy trailers. Our inventory features trusted brands like Great Dane, Utility, Trail King, and Custom Heavy Haul, catering to diverse hauling needs.
Purple Wave is committed to transparency in all our auctions. We provide detailed descriptions, multiple photos, and sometimes even repair records for each trailer. Our no-reserve format means that every item sells to the highest bidder, ensuring a fair process for both buyers and sellers.
Our listings usually include the trailer's make, model, year, VIN, dimensions (overall length, width, and deck measurements), features, chassis details (including hitch type, suspension, and brakes), tire information, and GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). We also note any specific features or known issues to help buyers make informed decisions.
No, Purple Wave's online auctions are open to buyers from anywhere. However, buyers are responsible for trailer pickup or arranging transport. Many of our Illinois trailers are conveniently located for buyers in the Midwest, but we welcome bidders from across the country.
We recommend carefully reviewing all provided information, including photos and descriptions. Pay attention to details like the trailer's age, listed features, and any noted repairs or issues. For refrigerated trailers, check the refrigeration unit's hours. If you have specific questions, you can contact Purple Wave for additional information before placing a bid.
Consider your specific hauling needs, including the type and weight of loads you'll be carrying. For heavy equipment, look at lowboy or equipment trailers. For temperature-sensitive goods, consider refrigerated vans. Also, factor in the trailer's dimensions, GVWR, and compatibility with your towing vehicle. Lastly, consider features like ramp types, deck materials, and any specialized equipment for your industry.
Yes, Purple Wave ensures proper ownership documentation for all trailers. Most listings mention 'Illinois title' or titles from neighboring states. The listing will specify if there's any delay in title distribution, which is typically up to 14 days from the verification of funds. Always check the specific details in each listing regarding title and documentation.
While Purple Wave provides comprehensive online information, physical inspections may be possible depending on the seller's location and policies. Check the listing for the trailer's location and contact Purple Wave if you wish to arrange an inspection. Remember, all items are sold 'as is, where is,' so thorough research is recommended.
For heavy equipment transport, consider lowboy trailers, such as the Trail King or Load King models in our inventory. These trailers typically have low deck heights and high weight capacities, ideal for moving construction or agricultural equipment. Tilt-deck trailers, like some Custom Heavy Haul models we offer, are also excellent for easy loading of wheeled or tracked machinery.
Look at the trailer's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) in the listing. The GVWR indicates the maximum weight the trailer can safely carry, including its own weight. Ensure this exceeds the weight of your typical loads plus the trailer weight. Also, consider the trailer's dimensions to ensure your cargo will fit. If you're unsure, consult with a Purple Wave representative for guidance.
