Top 3 14K Gooseneck Trailers for Sale: Specs, Price & Options

Key Takeaways

• 14K gooseneck trailers carry a 14,000 lb GVWR and tow without a CDL in most states, which makes them the working sweet spot for hauling equipment, vehicles, and bulk materials with a heavy-duty pickup.

• Picking the right 14K unit comes down to deck length and use case, and buyers who shop on price alone end up with a trailer that is either too short for the load or longer than the job needs.

• The three units worth the buy right now at Poplar Bluff Trailer are the 2023 Kaufman 24' for mid-sized equipment, the 2022 P&T 30' Flatbed with Stand-Up Ramps for vehicles and heavier machinery, and the 2026 Maxx-D GSX10240 40' Hot Shot for long-haul commercial work.

• Cash pricing on the three picks runs from $7,998 on the Kaufman 24' to $8,998 on the P&T 30' and $17,488 on the new Maxx-D 40', each priced under its retail sticker.

• Poplar Bluff Trailer keeps all three units on the lot with daily inventory updates and ships across Missouri, Illinois, and the surrounding region.

What are the Best 14K Gooseneck Trailers Worth Checking Out? 

The three 14K gooseneck trailers worth a serious look at Poplar Bluff Trailer are the 2023 Kaufman 24' x 102" Gooseneck Equipment Trailer for mid-sized equipment moves, the 2022 P&T 8.5' x 30' Gooseneck Flatbed with Stand-Up Ramps for vehicles and heavier machinery, and the 2026 Maxx-D GSX10240 40' x 102" Hot Shot Gooseneck for long-haul commercial work. The Kaufman covers compact loads at the lowest entry price, the P&T trades up to a 30-foot flatbed for mixed and oversized hauls, and the Maxx-D hits the 40-foot ceiling for hot shot operators. Which one fits depends on the length of the loads you run, whether you need a new unit with a warranty, and how much deck you actually use day to day.

14K is the most-bought GVWR class in the gooseneck category for a reason: it covers most professional hauling jobs without crossing into CDL territory, and the trailers themselves are light enough to tow comfortably behind a one-ton pickup.

If you're shopping in Missouri, Illinois, or the surrounding Mid-South region, the three units below cover the practical span of the 14K class from a 24-foot used equipment hauler to a brand-new 40-foot hot shot.

Which 14K Gooseneck Trailers Stand Out in the Lineup?

1. Used 2023 Kaufman 24' x 102" 14K Gooseneck Equipment Trailer

The Kaufman's stand-up ramp configuration stores vertically when not in use, keeping the rear deck clear and reducing loading setup time.

The 2023 Kaufman 24’ x 102” measures 24 feet long and 102 inches wide, making it easier to maneuver on job sites without sacrificing the full 14,000 lb GVWR. It runs on two 7,000-lb axles, giving you a combined axle capacity that supports the full-rated GVWR. At 102 inches (8'6") wide, it matches standard lane width and can accommodate most compact equipment without overhang concerns.

Key Specs & Features

• GVWR: 14,000 lbs

• Deck Length: 24 ft

• Width: 102" (8'6")

• Axles: Dual 7,000 lb axles

• Model Year: 2023

• Condition: Used

2. Used 2022 P&T 8.5' x 30' 14K Gooseneck Flatbed With Stand-Up Ramps

The P&T 30' flatbed runs the full 14,000 lb GVWR across its 30-foot deck, giving you six additional feet of loading surface compared to the 24 ft Kaufman. 

The P&T 8.5' x 30' 14K Gooseneck Flatbed is for buyers who need more deck real estate. At 8.5 feet wide and 30 feet long, this trailer gives you substantially more loading surface than the 24 ft Kaufman while maintaining the same 14,000 lb GVWR. This setup works well for longer equipment, multiple smaller machines, or lumber and pipe loads that need the extra length.

Like the Kaufman, this unit also comes equipped with stand-up ramps, keeping the loading process efficient. The 8.5 ft width (102 inches) gives you the same lane-legal clearance while offering slightly more usable deck space side to side.

• GVWR: 14,000 lbs

• Deck Length: 30 ft

• Width: 8.5 ft (102")

• Ramp Type: Stand-up ramps

3. 2026 Maxx-D Trailers GSX10240 40' x 102" 14K Hot Shot Gooseneck

The Maxx-D GSX10240 is designed to carry long, light loads efficiently over distance.

The Maxx-D GSX10240 takes the 14K gooseneck concept in a completely different direction. At 40 feet long, this is a hot shot-style configuration built for operators who need maximum deck length while staying within the 14,000 lb GVWR ceiling. 

The GSX10240 is a new 2026 unit, which means it comes with full manufacturer warranty coverage. Maxx-D is known for heavy-gauge steel construction and tight quality control, and its hot shot gooseneck line is built to handle the demands of professional transport work as well as occasional hauling.

Key Specs & Features

• Model: GSX Single Wheel Flatbed

• Dimensions: 102" Wide x 40' Long (35' Flat + 5' Dovetail)

• GVWR: 14000 lbs (Optional 12k or 16k De-rate/Up-rate Available)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the payload capacity of a 14K gooseneck trailer?

The payload capacity of a 14K gooseneck trailer is the GVWR minus the trailer's own weight. With a 14,000 lb GVWR and a trailer that typically weighs between 2,500 and 4,000 lbs, depending on deck length and construction, your usable payload lands somewhere between 10,000 and 11,500 lbs in most real-world configurations.

Do you need a special license to tow a 14K gooseneck trailer?

In most U.S. states, a standard Class C or Class D driver's license is sufficient to tow a trailer with a GVWR of 14,000 lbs, provided the combined vehicle and trailer weight stays at or below 26,000 lbs. However, licensing rules vary by state, so always confirm your local requirements before you load up and hit the road. 

Is it better to buy a new or used 14K gooseneck trailer?

The right answer depends on your budget, your timeline, and how hard you plan to work on the trailer. New trailers come with manufacturer warranties, current-year builds, and zero unknown history, but you'll typically pay a premium for them. 

Meanwhile, used trailers in good condition can be valuable, particularly in the current market where used inventory is priced well below new. The trade-off is that used trailers are sold as-is, meaning any issues discovered after purchase become your responsibility immediately.

What is the difference between a low-pro and standard gooseneck trailer?

A low-profile (low-pro) gooseneck trailer has a lower deck height than a standard gooseneck, achieved by using smaller-diameter tires and a recessed frame design. The practical benefit is a lower loading angle, which makes it easier to load equipment with limited ground clearance. Meanwhile, standard gooseneck trailers ride higher off the ground and typically use larger tires, which can make loading taller equipment more straightforward but create a steeper ramp angle for low-clearance machines.

Does Poplar Bluff Trailer stock other types of trailers?

Yes, at Poplar Bluff Trailer, we stock a broad inventory well beyond the 14K gooseneck category. Our lot includes gooseneck flatbeds ranging from 14K to 40,000 lb GVWR, covering brands like Maxx-D, Load Trail, Big Tex, and more. Beyond flatbeds, we also stock gooseneck dump trailers, car and equipment haulers, and low-profile models suited for specific applications.
