8.5×20 Enclosed Cargo Trailer — FAQ

Do I need a permit for an 8.5 wide trailer?+

No — 8.5 feet (102 inches) is the maximum legal trailer width without an oversize permit in Georgia and nationwide. It's the widest you can tow freely.

What truck pulls an 8.5x20 loaded?+

A 3/4-ton (F-250, Silverado 2500) is the comfortable minimum for a loaded 8.5×20; a half-ton can handle lighter loads but you'll want the bigger truck for cars and heavy gear.

Can an 8.5x20 fit a car?+

Yes. Twenty feet plus a beavertail ramp loads most cars with room left for tires, tools, and a workbench up front.
