I am in the need of a 5x8 or close to it utility trailer to haul a motorcycle. I am from out of town and they will not sell me one at lowes without going to get a tag. I am leaving in a month and don't want to go through the trouble. Anybody got one for sale?

If you buy one from an individual, are you going to pull it without a tag?

Never knew that.
Why would Lowe's give a $hit?

If you find one, will you get me one too. Hubbys has been whining about needing a 5 x 8 trailer for his m/c.

In My Opinion
go to lowes on the web for your home state. Purchase the trailer there with the option to pick it up here.
since you dont need the trailer license in your home state, they should sell it to you, and since (I assume) you have your own state tags on your tow vehicle and not Maryland tags, the lowes here should have no option but to give you what you already paid for.

least thats what I would try.

They've got them at Lusby Motor Co... Prince Frederick... it's the hardware and john deere store on Main Street....

I think you can pick one up for about $700.00. They have a couple of them in stock...

Lowes is being stupid. Suppose you want to tow it around your farm?

I work on base and we went to Lowes to purchase a trailer for "base" use and Lowes would not sell to us without a tag. They said they had the trailers titled in their names and can't let a trailer leave their lot without a tag.. So, we told them to stick it and went up the road to Southern Md Trailers and bought one with no problem.. LOL

I bought my trailer down in Richmond, had it temp taged in VA and then went to one of those tag & title places... and received my perment tag.

I bought the trailer for 1/2 the price as the one Lowes was selling.

If you only need it for transport you can rent one on base for $14 a day at the Auto Skills Center. I believe they are closed Monday/Tuesday so if you rent it on Sunday you don't have to have it back until Wednesday for the $14.

Hope that helps!

It's easier just to ride the bike..

Hopefully, god willing and thanks to uber-engineering from Germany (just for you Pete).. mine will NEVER need or see a trailer.

I have an open 5x8 trailor for sale; $600... :shrug:

It doesn't have a lift gate, but with the right kind of ramps it's easy to get stuff on and off...
