Trailers for Sale Near New Haven, CT

Introduction

From New Haven, head east on I-95 along the shoreline about 38 miles. Take I-395 North at the Waterford split, about 21 miles, then Route 12 to our lot in Canterbury. OSRM puts it at about 67 miles and roughly 1 hour 23 minutes, but I-95 east of New Haven is rarely free-flowing at rush hour. A mid-morning or Saturday-morning trip is usually smoother.

Shoreline buyers, shoreline jobs

Greater New Haven mixes a dense city, university and hospital work, and the shoreline towns from Branford to Old Saybrook. Trailers that match:

Service trades in the city often want a 6x12 enclosed cargo trailer, which is easier to park on city streets than a full-size tandem (more enclosed).

Shoreline landscapers and masons in Branford, Guilford and Madison use tandem-axle dump trailers for stone, sand and storm debris (Hillcrest dumps).

Small excavation outfits look at the Hillcrest 14+2 equipment trailer. Check your machine's weight against the listed payload.

Car people pick from the 16+2 and 18+2 car haulers.

Why come this far

The reasons to make the trip: both prices shown on every listing, financing that accepts an ITIN or a business EIN as well as an SSN, and a specific trailer in stock. If you're not sure the trip is worth it, call (860) 924-0887 first. We'd rather tell you a unit's gone than have you drive 80 minutes for nothing.

Registration for New Haven County

Like anywhere in Connecticut, registration is done in person at a DMV office. Titles are needed only above 3,000 lbs gross weight (title rule). Financing buyers: ask us how registration and tax are handled.

Holds and final sale

Because every sale is final (policy), shoreline buyers often reserve a unit online ($200, one week, transferable) and use the drive to look it over in person before paying the balance.

Planning around I-95

The shoreline stretch of I-95 is the one variable in this trip. Traffic between New Haven and the Waterford split can double the drive at peak times. Many buyers come on a weekday morning, look the trailer over, and head home before the afternoon rush. Hold the unit online first so it's still here when you arrive.
