Since our early years of manufacturing, light duty tag trailers have been a core part of what we do at Loadstar. We’ve always built light tags with the same attention to quality and durability as our heavy tags and lowboys. Unlike mass-produced options, our custom built light tags are made to withstand tough commercial use and fully customizable to meet any specific need. Our clients value a light tag trailer that’s built to last, and they know that quality craftsmanship is worth the investment. Whether you need a straightforward deck between or deck over trailer, or a custom design to support a large water reservoir or secure tool cage, we deliver trailers that are as versatile as they are durable.
Our process starts with a detailed consultation to understand your specific hauling needs. This helps us design a trailer solution tailored to the challenges you face. Next, our engineering team creates custom designs, refining every detail to meet your exact expectations. Once approved, the project moves to our skilled production team of welders, machinists, and finishers, who craft your trailer with precision. From start to finish, our goal is to deliver a reliable, high-performance trailer. Begin with a no-obligation consultation to explore ideas and solutions before committing.

For operators and haulers new to Loadstar Trailers and to the world of light tag trailers, we hope the following gives you a clear understanding of what makes these trailers ideal for hauling loads up to 15 tons.
The same trailer often goes by several names, depending on who you’re talking to. Here are some variations we’ve come across: Tag, Tagalong, and Tag-a-long trailer. We call them light tag trailers, and we believe they’re the efficient solution for lighter loads, essential for transporting machinery, equipment, and materials with ease. Loadstar Trailers offer custom-built light tag trailers designed to handle payloads from 7-15 tons, making them ideal for commercial landscaping, equipment rentals, maintenance teams, etc.
A light duty tag trailer is a compact and versatile trailer used for transporting mid-range loads that don’t require the heavy-duty specifications of larger trailers. These trailers are designed with a custom-built tow eye that can be adjusted for height using multiple holes in the front frame, allowing it to align with the towing vehicle’s hook or ball hitch. With load capacities between 7 and 15 tons, light duty tag trailers are perfect for hauling smaller equipment, materials, or tools without losing quality or performance.
Light tag trailers typically feature 2 or 3 fixed axles with spring ride suspension. Ramps are standard at the rear, with optional side ramps available. Toolboxes can be mounted in the front A-frame, or a mesh-bottomed storage area with an optional lid. D-rings along each side provide secure load attachment. An optional headracks at the front of the deck help organize and secure tools. Additionally, a platform can be integrated to support fluid reservoirs or equipment security cages, enhancing functionality and storage options.
Light duty tag trailers are a wise choice for hauling loads that sit lower than those needing a lowboy and weigh up to 15 tons. A light tag is mainly loaded from the rear but can also be side-loaded. Loadstar designs custom light tag trailers for sale, delivering the strength, versatility, and dependability essential for transporting smaller equipment, cargo, and machinery. Whether you’re in maintenance, paving, concrete work, or landscaping, these trailers are built to tackle the toughest tasks.
