Subject: Empty weight of single axle trailer

The weight of your trailer can be figured out by looking at the VIN sticker located on the frame of your trailer. Locate the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) on the sticker. The GVWR is the empty weight of the trailer plus the capacity that the trailer is rated for (also known as the MAX GVCC ).

I have a single axle trailer, as per the Vin sticker the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating GVWR is 3500 lbs. The Maximum load carrying capacity MAX GVCC is 2,800 lbs.

Therefore, doing simple math, you can figure out what the empty weight of the trailer is by taking the GVWR – MAX GVCC = empty weight of the trailer. For my trailer , the GVWR is 3500 bs. minus the MAX GVCC of 2800 lbs equals 700 lbs empty weight.
