Used Livestock & Horse Trailers in Austin

Used Livestock & Horse Trailers — what to check

A used livestock or horse trailer needs a floor you'd trust an animal on: pull the mats and probe the wood or aluminum floor for rot and corrosion (urine destroys floors from below), check the welds and interior dividers, and confirm the roof and vents don't leak. Work the doors and latches, inspect the tires and brakes, and look for rust behind the wheel wells. Aluminum resists rot but can fatigue-crack — check welds.
