Noticed a decent deal on a BCS dump trailer locally.

If I buy it I am wondering how to get it home - my small truck or my big truck?

Thanks

should be easy to figure out. What does the trailer weigh? What does your owners manual say your trucks towing capacity is. My 4 cyl Toyota has a 3500 lb. capacity. If I am pulling anything close to that weight very far I use my big truck. Ford F-250 with 7.3.
Also consider stopping the trailer. My little truck isn't equipped with a brake control and my big one is.

I just hauled a new Ravenna trailer in the box of my Ford F-150 7700 with 6.5foot bed, along with a 107d and tiller It was definitely a tight fit, but you won't have the tractor and tiller, so it should be good.

It isn't the weight I am concerned about, it is the size.

I looked at the shipping weight online and it is 200 pounds.

The widths is something like 43" IIRC.

I was just wondering if it would fit inside the smaller pickup bed or if I need to take my flatbed truck (which I have not renewed the tabs on because I currently only use it on my property).

Sorry, I should have been more explicit.

The BCS trailer is made by Ravenna. It fit in a Ford shortbed with a Grillo 107d and tiller. Now, my box is bigger'n yours, but you won't have the tractor. If you had to, you could slide it in on its side and strap it well.
