Trailer Sales, Service & Parts
Haul Hard, Haul Trio in LaFollette, TN
Family-run trailer sales, parts and service on one lot in LaFollette, Tennessee — trailers to buy, parts to keep them rolling, and a service side for when something quits. Call or text us and we'll tell you straight what we've got.
Start with the kind of trailer you need
Why Trio
A family-run lot, and the same faces every time
Trio is family run, and that shows up in small ways: the person who sells you a trailer is the one you'll see again when you come back for a coupler or a light kit, and the one who hears about it if the service side got something wrong. We're not a call center with a lot attached. Neighbors, farms, work crews and weekend haulers around LaFollette all pull in here, and we'd rather send somebody home with the right trailer than move a bigger one today. If you're not sure what you need, call or text a description and we'll sort it out before you make the drive.

Before you hitch up
The towing questions we get asked every week
How do I find out what my truck can really pull?
Three numbers decide it: the tow rating in your owner's manual for your exact truck, the rating stamped on the receiver, and the tongue weight the hitch is good for. The lowest of the three is your ceiling, not your target. Text us those numbers and what you're hauling and we'll tell you what range to look at.
Single axle or tandem — how do I choose?
Single axle is lighter, cheaper on tires and easy to push around a tight driveway, which suits yard work and short hauls. Tandem carries more, rides steadier on the highway, and usually limps you to the shoulder instead of dropping a corner if a tire goes. Loading much over 3,000 pounds or running long distances points you to two axles.
Do I need trailer brakes?
It depends on the loaded weight and what your tow vehicle is set up for — brakes are no help without a controller in the truck. Tell us what you tow with and how heavy you load, and we'll go over what the trailer you're looking at has. It's a cheaper conversation before you buy than after.
How do I know which ball fits the trailer?
The size is stamped or cast into the coupler itself — usually 1-7/8, 2 or 2-5/16 inch. Match the ball to that number and the ball mount's rating to the loaded trailer, and don't guess by eye, because a 2-inch coupler will sit on a 1-7/8 ball and come off on the first bump. Send us a photo of the coupler if the stamp is painted over.
Why do trailer lights keep quitting on me?
Most of the time it's a ground, not a bulb — the frame connection corrodes and everything gets strange at once. Sealed connectors and a clean ground stud fix most of it. Bring it by the service side or text a photo of the plug and the harness and we'll tell you what it needs.
The tires look fine but the trailer has been sitting. Is that a problem?
Probably yes. Trailer tires age out before they wear out, and the four-digit date code on the sidewall tells you the week and year they were built. If they're several years old, plan on replacing them regardless of tread — a blowout on a loaded trailer costs more than a pair of tires.
Can I text a photo of a part instead of trying to name it?
That's the easiest way to do it. The number on this site takes calls and texts, so send a picture of the part or the damage and we'll work from that. You'll get an answer from the same people who'd meet you on the lot.
Is everything at one place, or do I go somewhere else for service?
One lot in LaFollette, Tennessee. Sales, service and parts are all here, so the people who sold you the trailer are the ones who see it again when it needs work.
Should I call before I drive out to look at a trailer?
Yes — call or text first. Units move, and a quick message saves you the trip if the one you had your eye on just sold.
