Weight of the trailer nose
The  nose   weight  of  any   trailer  is  an
important weight  to measure  because it
affects  the   total  gross   vehicle  weight
(GVW)   of   your   vehicle.  This   weight
includes the  kerb  weight of  the vehicle,
any  cargo you  may carry  in  it, and  the
people who  will be  riding in the  vehicle.
And if you will tow a trailer, you must add
the  nose  weight  to  the  GVW  because
your  vehicle  will  also  be  carrying  that
weight.

Weight of the trailer
The  trailer  nose  should weigh  a  maxi-
mum  of 10%  of  the  total loaded  trailer
weight, within the  limits of the  maximum

you've loaded your trailer, weigh the trail-
er and then  the nose, separately,  to see
if the  weights  are proper.  If they  aren’t,
you may  be able to  correct them  simply
by moving some items around in the trail-
er.

should never weigh  more than the maxi-
mum trailer weight with trailer brakes. But
even that can be too heavy.

weight  in   the  rear  than   in  the
front. The front should  be loaded
with  approximately   60%  of   the
total trailer  load; the rear  should
be   loaded   with   approximately
It depends on  how you plan  to use your
trailer. For example, speed, altitude, road
grades,  outside   temperature  and  how
often your vehicle is used  to pull a trailer
are all important. The  ideal trailer weight
can  also depend  on any  special  equip-
ment that you have on your vehicle.
