Buying a Used Utility Trailer Near Memphis
Memphis buyers looking for a used utility trailer have three main channels: private sellers, auction lots, and dealer pre-owned stock. Private listings and auctions can post lower asking prices, but you take on title risk, no service history, and no recourse if something breaks on the first haul. A dealer charges more up front and hands over a titled unit backed by a shop inspection, financing, and completed paperwork.
We currently have three used utility trailers on our Poplar Bluff Trailer lot, about two and a half hours north of Memphis, priced from $988 to $9,998. Each unit went through our shop before it reached the lot, and Memphis is on our delivery routes, so you do not have to make the drive if you prefer not to. Below is what each trailer offers, what it costs, and who it fits best. These are live listings as of the time of writing and can sell at any time.
Used Utility Trailer Prices by Build
Light-Duty Single Axle, 12 ft Decks
Two single-axle units anchor the entry tier. The 2012 used 77" x 12' utility trailer carries a 3,500 lb GVWR and is priced at $988 versus $2,995 retail. The wider 77" deck suits landscape crews hauling mowers, pallets of mulch, and small skid attachments.
The 2025 used Load Trail 6' x 12' utility trailer runs $2,200 against a $2,500 retail figure. It is rated at 2,990 lbs GVWR on a bumper pull hitch, and the narrower 6 ft deck tows and stores more easily for crews working residential lots around Shelby County.
The choice between them comes down to deck width and model year. The Load Trail is newer with a narrower deck; the 2012 unit is wider, older, and roughly $1,200 cheaper.
Light-duty single-axle utility trailers offer significant savings over retail, with used prices starting under $1,000.
Heavy Duty Aluminum Deckover, 24 ft
The 2020 used Aluma 1024HTA-BT-DT-RR-RTD is the top of used utility stock at $9,998, marked down from $13,995 retail. It runs an 8.5 ft wide aluminum deckover platform, a 24 ft deck, a 9,900 lb GVWR, and a bi-fold tailgate for rear loading.
Deckover construction puts the deck above the fenders, so the full 8.5 ft width stays usable. Contractors hauling wide implements, pallets of material, or two pieces of compact equipment on one deck get that width without a step-over. The aluminum frame also cuts empty weight compared with a comparable steel build, leaving more of the rating available for payload.

Available Options to Buy Used Utility Trailers in Memphis
Private Sellers
Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, and similar platforms are where most budget listings show up. Prices tend to be the lowest, but the transaction is entirely on you: verifying the title, checking the frame and axles in a driveway rather than a shop, and covering anything that goes wrong once the cash changes hands.
Most private sellers do not offer a bill of sale beyond a handwritten receipt, and none offer financing. If the title has a lien on it, is in someone else's name, or is missing entirely, that becomes your problem at the county clerk's office with no way to recover the money.
Auctions
Auction lots move used trailers at competitive prices, but you are buying as-is with limited or no opportunity to inspect the unit before bidding closes. Title transfer timelines can run longer than a dealer or private sale, and financing is rarely an option, so you need the full amount ready at purchase. Auctions work best for buyers who can evaluate a trailer on-site and are comfortable absorbing the risk of hidden mechanical or structural issues.
Dealer Lots
Dealer pre-owned stock costs more up front and closes the gaps the other two channels leave open. You get a titled unit that has been through a shop inspection, access to financing, and completed paperwork before you leave. Most working buyers who need the trailer earning money that week go this route because the trailer is verified, the title is clean, and the transaction is handled start to finish.
