Moving a skid steer, mini excavator, or track loader takes a purpose-built trailer — not a guess. Diamond C equipment trailers are engineered from the ground up for heavy-equipment hauling, and Trailer Place in Wharton, TX carries several key models to match your machine weight, towing setup, and job site needs.

Diamond C Equipment Trailer Models

LPX — Low Pro Deckover (14,000–25,900 lb GVWR)

The LPX is one of Diamond C’s most versatile equipment trailers. The deckover design gives you full deck width — no fenders to work around — which makes loading wide machines easier and faster. GVWR options from 14,000 to 25,900 lbs. Deck lengths up to 24 feet. Fold-down or stand-up ramps standard. The LPX is a favorite for landscapers running a Bobcat S650, excavation crews with a Kubota KX080, or ranchers moving a tractor. Requires 3/4-ton minimum; 1-ton dually recommended for 20K+ GVWR models.

HDT — Heavy Duty Tilt (14,000–22,000 lb GVWR)

The HDT series pairs heavy-duty steel construction with a hydraulic or gravity tilt deck, letting you load equipment without ramps. Excellent for low-clearance machines like compact track loaders and skid steers. Available in 83″×16′ to 102″×22′ configurations. The full-tilt deck design speeds up loading on job sites where time is money. GVWR from 14,000 to 22,000 lbs.

LPT — Low Pro Tilt (10,000–14,000 lb GVWR)

The LPT offers tilt convenience in a lighter package. At 10,000 to 14,000 lb GVWR, it’s built for mini excavators, Dingo-style machines, stand-on equipment, and mid-size landscaping gear. The lower deck height reduces the ramp angle for machines with limited ground clearance.

MSO — Medium Duty Deckover (14,000–22,000 lb GVWR)

The MSO deckover splits the difference between the LPX and heavy commercial units. Ideal for agricultural and contractor use where a moderate payload range (5,000–10,000 lb equipment) and a 20–22 foot deck is the sweet spot. Double-break ramps, heavy-duty flooring, and wide tie-down tracks come standard.

GVWR & Payload Guide

Equipment trailer selection starts with your machine weight plus the trailer’s own weight (typically 3,000–5,000 lbs depending on size). A 14,000 lb GVWR trailer with a 4,000 lb trailer weight gives you a 10,000 lb payload — enough for most skid steers and mini-excavators. For full-size track loaders and agricultural equipment, step up to an 18,000–25,900 lb GVWR unit. Always verify your towing vehicle’s actual payload and hitch rating before purchase.

Pricing Context

Diamond C equipment trailers typically range from $8,500 for entry LPT models to $22,000+ for heavy deckover configurations. Exact pricing varies by deck length, GVWR, and options. Contact us for a current quote.
