what does a gorilla 14' single axle trailer weigh
A Gorilla 14' single axle trailer usually weighs about 1,200 to 1,500 lb empty , depending on the exact model and build. A 14' Gorilla utility trailer with a 3,500-lb axle is listed with a 2,990 GVWR , which means the trailer itself is typically well under that rating and the exact curb weight varies by options like ramp gate, floor, and frame setup.
What that means
- Empty weight: roughly 1,200–1,500 lb for a typical 14' single-axle utility trailer in this class.
- GVWR: around 2,990 lb on Gorilla’s single-axle 14' utility models.
- Payload: the remaining capacity after trailer weight is subtracted from GVWR.
Why it varies
The weight changes with features such as:
- Ramp gate.
- Steel vs. aluminum construction.
- Dovetail.
- Floor material.
- Spare tire mount, jack, and lighting package.
Practical take
If you need the exact weight for towing or registration, the safest number is the trailer’s VIN plate or manufacturer spec sheet for the specific model. For a quick estimate, plan on around 1,300 lb for many 14' Gorilla single- axle utility trailers.
