TUMBLEWEED TRAILER
Made in the USA, Tumbleweed trailers create a perfect
foundation for your home. Designed specifically to
carry your most prized possession - your home.

SAFETY
Tumbleweed ensures your quality-built trailer comes
standard with brakes, lights, underside flashing and
special trailer radial tires. These tires are a significant
upgrade from tires normally found on utility trailers
and extremely important for your safety. These
radials differ from traditional bias-ply tires in their
construction, minimizing tread wear and improving
flexibility for better handling with heavier loads.
The tires we use are designed specifically for
trailers with heavier loads and carry a manufacturers
warranty of four years. We use steel belted Grand
Ride ST235/75R25, rated at 2540 lbs per tire, 5080
lbs per axle that should provide you with 30,000
miles of service with proper care and maintenance.
You should be checking the tire pressure on all your
vehicles once a month at a minimum.
Our suspension package, with multiple 5,000
lb axles, comfortably carries the weight of you tiny
home. Standard 3,500 lb axles found on standard
trailers may not meet your needs.
