Enclosed cargo trailers tend to be primarily made up of either aluminum or steel. Both offer unique advantages and drawbacks. The right choice for you will depend on your given situation.

Aluminum models tend to be lighter, which can make them easier to tow and less like gas guzzlers. They also are more resistant to rust, which can save you money on repair costs.

Steel models are more durable and will last longer. They can better stand up against the inevitable wear and tear that comes with hauling large loads. It's also easier to find a mechanic experienced in steel enclosed trailers. Aluminum welding requires a different technique that not all professionals know, which can make it harder to get repair assistance.

Enclosed trailers come with an outer skin. The thickness of the skin ranges depending on the model you are considering. When it's thinner, it's going to more easily warp over time. If you use the enclosed cargo trailer in bad weather, the skin is going to wear down faster. Thinner skin is cheaper, but it won't last as long. The more often you expect to use your purchase, the more you'll want to spend on a sturdy skin. The higher upfront cost can save you in repairs down the road.

You'll also want to take into account the roof. Usually, they come in flat or rounded options. Flat ones tend to be cheaper, which is advantageous for those on a budget. But keep in mind that they tend to collect rainwater quickly. This can create a breeding ground for mold, which can lead to more time spent cleaning and maintaining the roof. Rounded roofs tend to be more costly, but water slides down over the side. This leads to less collection of moisture, which can reduce the upkeep time and energy.
