Tractor Supply has a good selection, remember, if you don't get one with a "drop down" ramp, you'll have to buy ramps. I'd also check with "four wheeler" places as it seems that everyone that has one has a trailer to haul it around on. Whatever you end up getting, invest in "bearing buddies" or whatever they're called now so you can keep the wheel bearings full of grease. Spare tire is also a good idea. IMHO, I'd stay FAR away from fold up trailers, remember you're going to be hauling some weight at highway speeds.

You don't mention what you'll be towing with, plan on getting a receiver hitch also the wiring adapter for your vehicle. If you have a pickup, should have a step and tow bumper which would handle this light load, regular vehicles don't have bumpers anymore. :-)

Unfortunately, cost and storage definitely come into play and you'll be spending some $$ and moving the trailer so you can mow under it in my experience.

Good luck,

You should check into the cost for licensing and inspections on trailers in your state.

I'll be using an Explorer to tow. Mine is a 2008 with the 4.6L V8. I think it is rated for 7200lbs. I have a complete tow kit setup with harness, chains, etc. I transported my 2nd LT133 from sellers house to my home using a Home Depot rental trailer.. It was more than I need, however. Good points on the ground clearance and licensing/registering with state. I'll have to look into that.

If you want to mess with a trailer with separate ramps (rather than a drop-down tailgate), look for ramps with an arch in them, and that would probably take care of the "bottoming out" problem. Storing the ramps and carrying them with you when you go is a pain in the ---.

Yes, I am minimalist by nature and can see where the ramp lugging will get old. The more I look at it the low-rider trailer is probably the way to go. Send along any links, pics, etc. of rigs yo may have. I need to get more ideas.. also this is a budget deal. Best price for utility needed is the goal.

Arched ramps are usually more difficult to load riding mowers (LTs) cause the ground clearance challenged riders bottom going on the ramp instead of going on the trailer when using straight ramps.

For low hung lawn tractors you want a trailer with smaller diameter wheels and long straight ramps like the one at Harbor Freight or a similar design.You're not hauling all that much weight trailering a lawn tractor. There are three Harbor Freight trailers with three weight capacities and all will carry the LT133.

Hard to beat the price of the HF trailer when on sale with a coupon and you can improve any aspect of the design you choose when you assemble it.

You can make any length ramps you want (within reason) using 2x8 or 2x10 or 2x12 lumber and can add loading ramp end kits http://www.lowes.com/Automotive/Trailers-Ramps/Loading-Ramp-Kits/_/N-1z0x2mp/pl?escaped_fragment=#!.
