Handy Cargo Trailer Accessories

If you own a cargo trailer, we recommend checking out our article below! In it, we’ve listed a number of helpful accessories to make your hauling experience easier than ever before and ensure your freight stays safe and sound throughout the trip. To purchase some of the helpful accessories listed below, feel free to visit us here at Absolute Trailer Sales Inc. in Inver Grove Heights, MN.

Sway Bars

Cargo trailers are prone to sway, and it isn’t always possible to distribute a load of freight evenly across the bed to ensure your model doesn’t go swinging from side to side. That’s why we advise purchasing a set of handy sway bars to attach to your hitch. This will reduce the likelihood of trailer sway while hauling an uneven load of cargo, and can also be helpful during high winds and inclement weather. 

Cargo Nets 

Cargo trailers don’t typically need tie-downs, as items can be conveniently stacked to ensure they don’t go slipping and sliding across the bed as you drive. However, if you need to carry a small freight load, you may struggle to keep all your items in place in a largely empty cargo trailer. To ensure nothing gets damaged, we advise investing in a handy cargo net to help keep everything safely in place. 

Moving Blankets

If you’re carrying exceptionally fragile freight, it may be a wise idea to invest in some durable moving blankets for your cargo trailer. These thick blankets are simply thrown over or wrapped around sensitive cargo to keep it from being damaged by other items or by knocking into the trailer's walls.
