I had purchased a 6 by 9.5 foot landscape trailer and was happy untill I weighed it. I came to find out this trailer weighed about 1250 lbs empty. If the law says trailers over 2000 lbs must have brakes then this means I can only put 750 lbs of cargo on it to be fully road legal? Is this correct?
I am not sure what to think of that. I am trying to understand the purpose of my dual axle trailer when this is the case.
I also noticed that u-haul and home depot both rent 5 by 9 foot trailers that also weigh about 1250 lbs empty, (Without brakes).

opinions on this matter?
