Trailer, 5K - 5' x 12' Hydraulic Drop Deck
Our 52″ × 12′ Tilt Trailer is a Midsota SL Series heavy-equipment tilt trailer specifically designed for rolling heavy loads on and off without a forklift. With a 7,000 lb axle and a 5,800 lb payload capacity, this trailer excels where traditional ramps are too steep or unsafe.
This is one of our most specialized trailers and is commonly rented as a scissor lift trailer, but customers also rely on it for toolboxes, gun safes, industrial coolers, and heavy shop equipment that must be rolled—not lifted.
Purpose-Built for Heavy Rolling Loads
- 52″ × 12′ deck size
- 5,800 lb payload capacity
- Single 7,000 lb axle
- Full-deck tilt design for a low, shallow loading angle
- No ramps required — deck tilts to ground level
- Heavy-duty steel frame construction
- 2 5/16″ coupler for stable towing
The shallow approach angle makes it possible to safely load items using dollies, pallet jacks, carts, or built-in wheels, reducing risk and effort.
Ideal for Loads Without Forklift Access
This trailer is frequently used for:
- Scissor lifts
- Large mechanic toolboxes (job changes or shop moves)
- Gun safes
- Industrial coolers and appliances
- Heavy machinery or equipment on wheels
If it’s too heavy to lift, but can be rolled, this trailer is often the safest solution.
Simple, Rental-Ready Setup
We keep this trailer purpose-built and uncluttered. The only added accessories are:
- (2) 25-foot ratchet straps – 2″, 3,333 lb WLL each
Customers typically bring additional straps or chains depending on the load.
Why Customers Choose This Trailer
- No forklift required
- No steep ramps
- Safer loading for heavy, wheeled items
- Faster setup than traditional equipment trailers
- Ideal for tight spaces and shop moves
If you need a tilt trailer rental for heavy rolling equipment, this 52×12 Midsota SL Series trailer delivers control, safety, and simplicity where other trailers fall short.
