Custom-built tilt trailers from Overbilt Trailer Company — available in both tag-a-long tilt and gooseneck tilt configurations, manufactured one at a time by a single craftsman.
Why tilt loading matters
A tilt trailer’s deck pivots so equipment drives straight on at near-ground level. No ramps. No jackknife risk. No slow-and-steady climb up a steep ramp angle for equipment with low ground clearance. For skid steers, mini excavators, low-profile dozers, compactors, and any equipment where ramp loading is slow or unsafe, a tilt deck cuts loading time by more than half and eliminates the most common cause of equipment damage during transport.
We build two types of tilt trailers — which one you choose depends on your tow vehicle and the weight you haul.
Tag-A-Long Tilt Trailers
Tag-a-long tilts connect to a standard rear hitch or pintle behind your truck’s rear axle. They’re the right choice when you need tilt loading on a smaller or mid-range trailer and want to rotate between multiple trucks without specialty bed equipment.
Capacity ranges:
6 ton, 10 ton, 15 ton, 20 ton, and 25 ton
Deck lengths:
typically 16 ft to 26 ft
Connection:
standard hitch ball or pintle
Best for:
skid steers, mini excavators, compactors, small dozers, landscape equipment
Gooseneck Tilt Trailers
Gooseneck tilts connect at a coupler mounted in your truck bed, directly over or just ahead of the rear axle. The gooseneck configuration gives you significantly more capacity and better stability at highway speeds — the right call when you’re hauling heavier equipment and still want the loading speed of a tilt deck.
Capacity ranges:
10 ton, 15 ton, 20 ton, 25 ton, and 30 ton
Deck lengths:
typically 20 ft to 36 ft
Connection:
in-bed ball or kingpin coupler
Best for:
mid-size excavators, mid-size dozers, tracked equipment, equipment with low ground clearance that still needs higher capacity
Tilt mechanisms we build
Hydraulic tilt
— powered deck control for heavier loads and repeat daily cycling
Air-assisted tilt
— uses the truck’s air system to control deck pivot speed and hold position
Gravity / mechanical tilt
— simpler release mechanism for lighter-duty applications
Options across both configurations
Stake pockets, rub rails, toolboxes, winches, tie-down rings, LED lighting packages, custom deck widths, and custom paint. Both tag-a-long and gooseneck tilt builds can include any of the options available on our standard trailers.
What makes ours different
Every Overbilt trailer — tilt, tag-a-long, gooseneck, or lowboy — is built by a single craftsman from frame-up through final inspection. The deck pivot mechanism, the hydraulic or air system, the axle alignment, the frame welds — all the work of someone who owns the outcome. A tilt deck has more moving parts than a fixed deck trailer, and one person accountable for all of them is how we’ve kept trailers on the road for decades.
We spec the trailer around your equipment and your application. Whether you need a 10 ton tag-a-long tilt for a single skid steer or a 30 ton gooseneck tilt for a mid-size excavator fleet, the build is yours — not a catalog model with options bolted on.
