Frequently Asked Questions about Utility Trailers
Purple Wave auctions frequently feature a variety of Utility trailers, including refrigerated van trailers, dry van trailers, flatbed trailers, and drop deck equipment trailers. Our inventory often includes models such as the Utility VS2RA, 3000R, 4000D-X Composite, and FS2CHA, catering to diverse transportation needs.
Purple Wave is committed to transparency in all our auctions. For Utility trailers, we provide detailed listings with comprehensive information about each unit, including dimensions, features, chassis specifications, and known issues. Our no-reserve format means the highest bid wins, ensuring a fair process for all buyers.
Our Utility trailer listings usually include the year, make, model, VIN, dimensions, features (such as deck type and refrigeration units), chassis details (suspension, brakes, axles), tire information, and GVWR/GAWR. We also note any significant features like refrigeration unit hours, known damages, or recent repairs when available.
To evaluate a Utility trailer, consider the following: trailer type (refrigerated, dry van, flatbed), dimensions, weight capacity (GVWR), condition of key components (refrigeration unit, tires, brakes), and any specialized features you require. Pay attention to the trailer's age, mileage (if available), and maintenance history. Our detailed listings help you make informed decisions based on your specific transportation requirements.
Utility refrigerated van trailers typically feature aluminum construction, Thermo King or Carrier refrigeration units, air suspension, dual landing gear, and tandem axles. They often have a GVWR of 65,000 lbs and come equipped with either steel or aluminum wheels. Many models offer sliding axles for load distribution flexibility.
While we strive to provide as much information as possible, detailed maintenance records are not always available for every Utility trailer. However, our listings often include important maintenance-related information such as refrigeration unit hours, recent repairs, and any known issues. We encourage bidders to carefully review all provided information and images.
When purchasing a used Utility flatbed trailer, consider the deck condition (material and wear), overall length and width, weight capacity, axle configuration, and tire condition. Check for any signs of structural damage or excessive wear. Also, consider whether features like sliding axles or specific tie-down options are important for your hauling needs.
Utility trailers at our auctions vary in condition, from well-maintained units with moderate use to those that may require some repairs. While they may show signs of use, many offer excellent value compared to new models. Our detailed listings help you assess each trailer's condition, allowing you to make informed decisions based on your budget and requirements.
Purple Wave does not directly offer financing, but we welcome buyers to arrange their own financing. Many of our buyers work with their preferred financial institutions or equipment financing companies. We recommend securing financing before bidding to ensure a smooth purchase process.
Pickup availability varies by seller and location. Generally, trailers can be picked up within a few days after the auction closes and payment is received. Some listings may have specific pickup windows or locations. Always check the individual listing for pickup details and contact our customer service if you have any questions about the process.
