Scissor Lift Trailer for Ground-Level Loading

Load scissor lifts without ramps or steep inclines. Our hydraulic scissor lift trailers lower the entire deck to ground level, making it easier and safer to load low-clearance equipment. Choose from 3,500–10,000 lb payload models built for contractors, rental companies, and commercial fleets.

Scissor Lift Trailer Models & Capacities

Whether you're hauling a small Genie 1932 or a full-size SkyJack 4740, we have a trailer to match. Choose from single axle, tandem axle, or enclosed models, all with flush ground loading and rated up to 10,000 lb payloads.

Tandem Axle Models

Designed for heavier lifts and more demanding applications, our tandem axle trailers handle loads up to 10,000 lbs. These are the go-to choice for commercial contractors hauling Genie 3246, SkyJack 4740, and similar lifts on a daily basis.

Why Ground-Level Loading Is Better for Scissor Lifts

Scissor lifts have low ground clearance, making ramps and tilt decks difficult to navigate. An HGL scissor lift trailer lowers the entire deck to ground level, allowing the operator to drive straight onto the trailer without climbing a steep incline.

Features That Set Our Trailers Apart

made-in-usa-

Ground-Level Deck Design

The trailer’s entire deck lowers flush to the ground, eliminating detachable ramps and steep loading angles. Low-clearance scissor lifts can drive directly onto the deck before it is raised for transport.

Onboard Hydraulic Operation

An onboard 12-volt battery powers the hydraulic system that raises and lowers the deck. Push-button controls let the operator position the trailer without relying on the tow vehicle.

Patented Axleless Suspension

The HGL suspension uses a D-frame design supported by sumo springs and guided by durable UHMW polymer. This axleless configuration allows the deck to lower completely to ground level.

Commercial-Grade Construction

A reinforced steel chassis, heavy-duty diamond-plate deck, and powder-coated finish are built for regular commercial use. Structural components and the suspension are backed by a five-year warranty.
