I am about to buy a mini excavator for my company. What type of trailer is best for safely loading and unloading these? Flatbed with ramps? Dump trailer? Something else? Length and width?
Best trailer for a mini excavator?

They can be loaded on pretty much anything. Ramps are even optional. I prefer deck over trailers because they’re better for loading other things but for a dedicated job of hauling a mini excavator the lower deck of an equipment trailer would be better. A dump trailer is quite likely the worst option for hauling equipment but has the benefit of dumping so..
What size excavator are you looking at?
