Best American-Made Utility Trailers
For landscapers, homeowners, and small contractors, a utility trailer is often the most versatile tool in the yard. Doolittle’s PipeTop Utility Trailers and Rally Sport Utility Trailers are built to handle everything from mowers and ATVs to lumber and building supplies.
Sizes ranging from 5x8 to 7x20
GVWRs up to 7,000 lbs.
Sturdy frames and reinforced gates
Clean welds and smooth finishes that stand out compared to budget competitors
Whether you need a lightweight weekend hauler or a heavy-duty workhorse, Doolittle’s utility lineup is among the best American-made options on the market.
Best American-Made Dump Trailers
When the job calls for hauling rock, dirt, mulch, or demolition debris, you need a dump trailer you can trust. Doolittle’s Master Dump Series is designed for contractors, farmers, and anyone who works hard and needs equipment that works just as hard.
Key features include:
- Heavy-gauge steel beds and sidewalls
- Power-up / power-down hydraulic lifts
- Barn door or spreader gate configurations
- LED lighting and sealed wiring harnesses for reliability
- Available in sizes from compact 5x8 units to full-size 7x16 models, Doolittle dump trailers consistently earn praise for their strength and ease of use.
Best American-Made Gooseneck Trailers
For serious hauling, nothing beats the stability and capacity of a gooseneck. Doolittle’s Gooseneck and Deckover trailers are built with the strength and features professionals demand:
I-Beam main frames with crossmember reinforcement
Lengths from 20 to 40 feet
Tandem or dual axle configurations for heavy payloads
Treated wood or steel flooring options
These trailers stand shoulder-to-shoulder with brands like Diamond C, PJ, and Big Tex — but often deliver better value for the money. For farmers, equipment haulers, and contractors who need reliability without overpaying, Doolittle goosenecks are a smart investment.

In an industry crowded with choices, Doolittle has built a reputation for giving customers more trailer for their money. Here’s how they stand out:
