That is the most nicest set up I have ever seen. I have ocd real bad and this would be my kinda set very organized and efficient 👍👍
My guess is the tire rack on the right hand side is a safety feature. You don't want to be fiddling with a spare tire mount right next to traffic on the side of the road.
Copper Creek Cuts yeah I get that but the curb side is the best place for all the racks. The spare tire was taking up some prime real estate. LOL!
Fall River Lawn Care Just to be clear, I wasn't passing judgement on your decision, I was just answering the question you posed near 2:06. :)

I was thinking the same thing, especially on the interstate.
I honestly think its because hes a trailer builder and not a landscaper these are problems you only figure out in the field
You know, just a thought here, I would have personally put the gas rack on the driver side, since that is the side you fuel up on. But I can totally see the reasoning behind keeping them equipment side.
Quick tip. I cut out a thin metal or aluminum plate to match the bracket hole on my racks. This made one large washer to hold the rack into place with the expanded metal. Tip 2 I would thru bolt the top racks you used the self tapers. Not a fan of the self tapers on racks. I have seen whole racks fall off , not to mention that they can easily be unbolted. Just sayN :)
Ron Hart thanks for the tips. Always like getting feedback like this! 👍🏻👍🏻
Ron Hart not fond of self tappers for any heavy duty or long term application, especially on vehicles and trailers. they often work loose.
Looks great! Thanks for the support Kevin!
Nice way to organize it. May have to fi d me something for my shed besides my dogs. Been some stealing in the neighborhood.
I would recommend replacing those self tappers with some heavy duty bolts from Home Depot. My experience with those self tappers, is they’re way too easy to break off.
You don’t have to buy them from HD but it is a good idea. I prefer to use MidState Bolt & Screw. They’ll deliver them to your door if you don’t have an outlet near you. And you can get them Hardened as well as Heavy Duty (unless that’s what you meant by heavy duty).
Looks great. That's a nice looking trailer. Should work perfect for you.
Nice Chevy silverado truck look like rock.
Ain’t gonna lie I love you trailer 😍
I think that the best place for that spare is on the front right safe and easily accessible
Nice set-up, inspires me to take the slow months to revamp all our trailers to be more efficient!
Grass Kisser Landscape Management drives me nuts when I’m not efficient. That’s why I had to get this trailer organized.
Great looking setup!
I see you getting money homie...I'm trying to get started in the lawn care business. This is how I wanna roll. Make it do what it do 💪💪💪
Great video man!! And nice job with the racks, my only thing is, who’s going to try to steal gas cans? I wouldn’t take the time or money to put locks on the pins and have to unlock it every 3-4 yards. If it were me I would just clip a carabiner only to keep it in place. Thanks for the video!
Really nice setup. You should make the holes bigger. Drill them out and install thicker bigger bolts. Better theft Deterrent. That is one super nice trailer.
Superior Lawn Care I will look at doing that if any of these bolts break.
Fall River Lawn Care ... yeah I did that to my trailer so a Thief would steal my stuff. I really can't afford to loose anything. If I can make it stronger hey why not.
I like those blowers mounted like that!
Looking sharp.
Looks great man
Kevin
looks like your having to much fun with your new toys.
Something you probably already factored in is in most states the max trailer width is 8'6"
including gear.
In Ct, something they will hold your feet to the fire for.
Be safe, be legal.
Very cool trailer.
Scott
Scott f yeah I’m a little over but I’m going to chance it and see how it goes. 😳
great job and awesome set up Kevin ;)
Great video Kevin. Maybe equipment defender will see your video and make metal plates that match the back side of the mounting brackets available for their products in the future for mounting with expanded gate. Even as optional hardware that you purchase if needed.
Lawn Care Business Success that would be awesome!
good job man i like you trailer setup 👍🏻
Man those equipment defender racks sure are nice.
Never bet your equipment on self taping screws !
Great video, thank you
Great video, I'm starting to record leaf clean ups, I like to video record it, fast pace it and post it on my account, turns out to be a very satisfying video to watch, nice trailer set up
Nice video. On the areas where you mounted to the expanded metal. Consider using a galvanized metal electrical plate on each side. It will keep the expanded metal from flexing and bending. All that money invested, I hope you have Lo Jack on there as well!!!!!
looking great! I've been thinking about getting some Equipment Defender racks when i upgrade my trailer

Hey Fall River...these dudes that are criticizing you for having "too much crap for one guy" kill me. It's your stinking business...run it the way you want. Plus, if you are planning for the future as you say, that just makes you wise. I've been pretty much solo for over 30 years. I've had the same trailer since about 1990. Single axle 6x12 with the original floor...(treated wood was waaayyyy better back then). It has been functional but I've lost a few pieces of equipment from bouncing out of the trailer and damaged countless pieces of gear because they weren't on racks. I wish I had organized many years ago. Looking at a new trailer this season and it will be racked up. Btw...I've got a 48 VRide and a Turf Tiger 2. The longer I have them, the more i use the V. It stinks that i bought mine last year and they come out with the VRide 2 this year which is a much better mower. Plan to sell my current V and purchase a new 48 and a 36 next season. Good video.
Hey man! Thats a dope trailer. Also im super excited about you doing a review on that kubota. That is my daily mower and i dont know of any big youtube guys who use kubota! If anyone does let me know.
found you through Blake! Love watching you guys!
Thanks for coming and checking out the channel. Blake is a good guy!
Your going to hit a mailbox one day with that equipment hanging so far out. I did once with my spare tire hanging out. I had the same trailer made by Load Trail and I put all my equipment in the front tool box cage, expect it was one door that folded down. I made a shelf so I had 2 levels and I kept my blowers in the bed of the truck.
Eric Hughes it’s definitely much wider than my enclosed. Been watching for anything close to the road.
Fall River Lawn Care - after this test run what will you do with the big open trailer? Or are you going to stay with the open trailer set up instead of going back to the enclosed trailer?
Love the stand up, got to have one soon, how do you like it?
Bro, I love your setup. Can show another video on it and a pic?
Merry Christmas dude. see u in 2018!
Self tapping screws !!!! Lol you’re gonna find your Stuff scattered on the highway
Hey Kevin, That is a Very Nice Set Up & I really do Like it, You are so Right when you say it gets Hot inside the Enclosed Trailer, I Run an Enclosed 7x16 Trailer with all the Equipment Defender Racks and it Gets HOT in their to the Point I Have to get Out Fast or I will Roast 😟, I'm Down in Broward County Florida. Now Having said That I do Love the Fact that all my Equipment is out of sight and secure in my Trailer Overnight. I know if a Thief wants it they will do anything to get in, but I have made it a bit harder for them to take. Everything outside is Locked up with Hocky Puck Locks, plus all my STHIL 's Locked upon my Racks Plus I have a Chain also on my "WRIGHT STANDER". It might take the Thief just a Bit Longer and a Bit more Stressful to get it if they really want it, Thats is Good that you do back your Trailer up into your Shop and not leave it outside, even though it is a Bit of a Pain to do it everyday 😏 Thanks For Sharing Friend 👍🏻
I got some Foakley's "Fake Oakley's" just like that too! Pretty good glasses for 19.99
Officer_Willard I have been looking for some good fake ones. Where did you get them if you don’t mind me asking.
It's awesome to find another Arkansas lawn care TH-camr like myself!!! Great channel buddy!!
Precision Lawn Service what part of Arkansas are you from?
@@HFConstruction Marion. It's close to Memphis
I know that area, I grew up in Forrest City.
@@HFConstruction it's a small world my friend. I'm glad I found your channel. I look forward to watching all your videos
Mailboxes may become an obstacle. Hope you don’t lose anything
Colby Brand I actually sold that trailer and got a box truck. I also switched all the racks out to Greentouch.
Fall River Lawn Care -nice. Good billboard and cover. In a perfect world an isuzu style with removable dovetail would be ultimate. Mowers w/dove and mulch, dirt, salt vbox, pull trailer w/it off. I see those around here with V-blades on. Not sure how that would work out lol
Trailer looks great, shame you're going to have to change it
Yep gotta have the nuts! Lol
Quick question. How are the blower tubes held onto the side of the trailer? I would worry they would fall down and drag the ground.
Lmfao. The Nuts you need he said
I need that trailer bro ..
Hi Kevin, I was wondering what kind of trailer is that and where can i get it
I like those racks, but Im gonna have to go with green touch. They seem to have more mounting options.
Galvans Property Care Galvan definitely best to go with what you feel will work best for you. 👍🏻👍🏻
When a car sideswipes you, your equipment is GONE! Those pipes sticking up catches rain.
That trailer is sweet. Do they make just the top section?
Like the setup I bought my new defender blower and 3 trimmer rack at the GIE just before I met you and Brian I'm going to install over the winter . Question trimmer rack installation the way you installed what worries me is the motors are facing the truck and rain going I to the mufflers also those 2 on the bottom won't they get a lot of wheel spray just a question and thoughts of mechanical issues
Imperial Services I have been told it’s best to cover the motors if it starts raining. I have put bags in my truck so it I’m out and it starts raining I can cover them right then. You can also switch the racks around if you want yours facing the other way. They are universal.
Fall River Lawn Care the bags ahhh I️ forgot I️ switched my other racks around for that reason we’ll continue on you have my permission ha ha ha I️m going to try and do some modifications to my trailer over the won’t then I’ll mount my pretty racks. Thanks
Great video Kevin! Really enjoyed you setting up this trailer and glad to hear it was faster for you this time! How long will you have that mower for?
Fence Armor they said a week but I hope to get mine back sooner than that.
Let's hope! It is always more comfortable to use your own equipment!
Red loctite should help those self tapers stay put
So are those the enclosed trailer brackets for the racks?
Great video man! I really enjoyed seeing the racks get installed. Seems like Equipment Defender makes some quality equipment. Will you still use the enclosed or are you going to sell it?
Joe Mills thanks man! I’m keeping the enclosed and going to continue to use it. The new trailer is nice but it’s just so big.
I used to do everything myself. It's easier to pay ur guys a few extra hours to do it.
I hear ya man, I like racks also.
Where can I get that attachment for the weed eater? The one that helps with edging
Thanks for Sharing Kevin, Sucks that your V-Ride broke down but it would be very Interesting to hear your thoughts on Stander or Sit Down ..... I enjoyed your video ... Thumbs Up !!
Cool58F250 I’m so ready to have my vride back.
I'm sure you are, Especially when thats what you are used to using ..... Hopefully Soon 😊 Thank You for the Response 👍🏻
Nace Job
I'd be careful mounting that to the expanded metal, depending on the gauge I mounted my weedeeater string holder to the expanded metal on my trailer and the vibration broke the expanded metal.
i dont know if you said it in the video but what trailer is that?
Great video
What type of trailer is that bc I am thinking of getting one?
Haven’t seen much lately honestly but what are the discs on the trimmers? Love the trailer.
They are for edging and keep lines straight
Is there any links to the exact rack holders for gasoline gallons ?
Great video!!! I’ve never seen no weed eater shields like that lol, so I’m assuming you only edge with the edger?
Alex Harper Those are called Edge-it Pro. They make trimming easier, imho, and you can also tip the trimmer and use them to maintain an edge. They work great, well worth the cash.
I know you just got the trailer but when are you going to put a lift kit on the truck it’s so low and with bigger tires..love the channel. Keep up the good work. Think positive.
Evan stanley it has the leveling kit on it. Probably all I’m going to do to it.
You add anything to the trucks suspension? Helper springs, air bags, add a leaf, etc?
And what size are those tires? They look mean!
Lee Ward no haven’t added anything but been looking at getting air bags. There is also a chance I may just get a new truck. Tires are 33’s
I’m a 10 year old boy I love to play outside I love lawn care I have an electric powered dirtbike and I tried to make a wood trailer but I can’t find anyway to hook the wooden trailer up to the dirtbike in 2020 I’m going to make my own business by myself but I might need to wait until I’m 16 so I can drive and pull a trailer
Why don't you put your leaf blowers on the front? So you don't have to go to the side?
Post a link to the tool you're using before you drill holes for the gas can racks.
They put it on the right side so is you have to access it after you pull off on the shoulder you don't get hit my traffic
Your bolts may have been just common hardware grade.
Look for increased strength bolts.
Try getting SAE bolts for greater strength.
I used grade 8 for mine with lockers. Hope that was right lol
I use two bolts on each attachment point. I have noticed that I loose (break) a bolt every month.
Barry Camarillo I’ll definitely keep an eye on it. Thanks for letting me know.
👍
Just wandered if you use some kind of back up camera to hook to the trailer. I kind of get tired of getting it close, then getting out to see how much more I need to move to line it up. My trailer is heavy like yours, so moving to the trailer to the ball is not an option.
Florida Treasure Hunter I do use a camera. I just found a cheap one on amazon and installed it myself.
What's a average pay of a lawn care owner/operator can make a day?
There is no link for equipment defender...
What kind of straps are those
What are these circular guards on a weed eaters? I've never seen those. Is that some Echo invention? Is there any advantage over a regular back guard like you see on a Stihl or a Husqvarna?
That is something I have added to them. It’s called the edge it pro. I wasn’t good a edging with a weedeater so this helped me get better.
Is this in fall river mass
Do people ask u to help them move being its a old uhaul
How big is your open trailer
kevin i would put much bigger washer than that because expanded medle is not the strongest so you want more surface aria
johns lawns I knew you guys would burn me in the comments! LOL! Im just joking with you. I’m thinking about switching it to a solid plate that all the bolts will go through.
that sounds a lot stronger and quick question about how much did that trailer cost
johns lawns about 2k
How did it go with those self tapping bolts?, i would of tack them or fully weld them.
I ended up selling that trailer.
Fall River what did you get instead, i didnt sell my 6x12 open trailer i started with i got a 7x16 i installed all racks sheves, blower racks, and had the wright stander 52”, a cub cadet pro z 48” and a husqvarna W436 36” belt driven walk behind, man after a year i went back to the open trailer most places i couldn’t park the 16 plus the ramp... now i will do this season with the 6x12!the husky 36” and a new cub cadet pro x652 stander...
Any wrap planned for the truck this year ?
Jeff Pratt not as of right now but have been thinking about signage for the trailer.
Please put Bolts w/Nuts on rake's. IT WILL LOOSEN UP. Good Luck
Can you tell me the name of rack plis
I'll be doing this exact thing with my trailer spare tire rack. Why wouldn't they put them street side to begin wtih?
They put the spare tire rack on the passenger side because when you have a flat on the freeway your not standing out there like a fool trying to get the spare off to fix your flat.
At 2012 Corbett
how are those equipment defender racks for the blower with tall walls?
in fact if its solid Ill go through your link!! Just let me know because I use the green touch industry trimmer racks and I love them but it looks like ill like equipment defender blower racks more.. Just wanna make sure they are ok on the walls.
I really didn’t like the ED blower racks. They were just so big and bulky. All I use now is the Greentouch ones.
@@HFConstruction Do you use them on that open trailer with the side walls?
No I don’t have that trailer anymore. I went to a box truck
Well y dong u unbolt the gas can holder brackets and flip them around I see bolts on there
Milwaukee
Is that a 20’ trailer? Looks like a semi trailer. Mostly smaller lots out here. These houses are sandwiched here. I used to use a 18’ but went down to 12’ ,parking was too much a headache with these subdivisions. Are you still going to use the enclosed? I’m finally going to be switching to my enclosed ,can’t wait. Won’t have to hold it anymore.., shut the door and go. Good video Kevin.
This is the first time watching your videos. I was thinking the whole time that you had like four guys working out of a truck and this was an awesome set up. Checking the comments after and find out your solo... WTF is all that for. Still an impressive set up but why?
G G I was looking to the future. Trying to get things ready for starting a crew. Just because it’s just me right now doesn’t mean I’m planning on keeping it that way. Thanks for for watching and I hope you subscribe and watch some of my other videos. 👍🏻👍🏻
Fall River Lawn Care I subbed and will check out your other videos. Your way ahead of me man, not trying to put you down.
Why self tappers, doesnt and well with all that vibration, I'd use 3/8 hard ware with lock washers
Brendan Sites I ended up taking all this stuff off the trailer and switched to Greentouch. It’s all bolted on now.
WTH do u have on ur weedeater
Hey Guys,Anybody heard or had to deal with Competitors messing with your equipment, say when you run in somewhere for lunch?
