Haul Master trailers
I am looking for an enclosed 6x12 trailer. I saw that Lowes had haul Master trailers. I tried to do some research on them but didn't find any info.Please help.

Could it have been a Haulmark?

No it is not a haulmark it is a Haul Master. I was thinking about getting it soon but I thought it would be helpful to get some advice. Has anyone had a lemon trailer. I don't want to buy junk. Also how long does an enclosed trailer normaly last. Thanks.

Cheap price can mean cheap work and cheap quality of material used.
I got what I thought was a good deal on a 16' flat deck trailer. The wiring was not done right, the paint was almost worthless, the wheel bearings were trash. The tires were the cheapest they could find and the axles were put in crooked so that the tires got eaten up.
My advice is if you can't find any more info on this brand to go with a US name brand trailer. Sure it will be more $$ but it might be worth it.

Joehar The price for a 6*12 enclosed is 2500.00 . I know that seems cheap ,they were 2800.00 but they are trying to get them of the lot for winter. Is that a good price ? Thanks guys for the replies.

That is not much more than a 16' flat deck. The price sounds great man, but what about the quality. Also a 12' will probably only be a single axle. Those ride much rougher and bounce around a lot more than a tandem.
