We are thinking about trading in our current travel trailer for a toy hauler. We recently purchased 3 quads. 2 small kawi 50's and a polaris 2up. I am looking at trailers under 25 ft. Most of the cargo areas would not be large enough to accomodate all 3 bikes. Can you load the bikes upright to travel? Do they make some kind of accessory for this? thanks for your advice in advance.

"accomodate all 3 bikes" are you talking about the 3 quads you just bought or do you want to load 3 bikes and 3 quads it this trailer?
Most 25' Toy Haulers can hold 4 full sized quads so I would think you should be able to get 1 full sized quad 2 50cc quads and 3 dirt bikes in without standing anything up.

I have a 22 foot fleetwood mallard and I can fit 2 suzuki 90 one Articat 500 and one KFX 700 and one dirt bike in it once it is loaded there is no room to walk you have to climb it has 15 1/2 feet of cargo room. I found that the trialers with beds in the front have less room for the cargo unless you get a trailer over 28 feet. I wanted a small trailer that I could take in the back country when hunting and any thing over 26 feet would have been too long. Still pleanty of room I have slept 6 grown men in it just buy a air mattras to go under the loft bed. I dont understand why these people need such a large trailer your camping in it not living in it all I do in mine is sleep and******in it.

WARNING!!!!!WARNING!!!!
Do not overlook a common affliction that many new Toyhauler owners come down with.
It's called A$$BACKWARDITIS.
(The process of buying the smallest toyhauler available then soon realizing you need more room)
****REMEMBER: Those 50's will grow into 250's or 450's sooner than you think.
Get a Toyhauler that will accomadate the family not just for today, but tomorrow as well.
Glamis...why go anywhere else?

This is true we are on our 3rd rv we chose a very large one (one poster asked why???) Because we have 5 kids and 3 grandkids plus ourselves and cant stand being on top of each other.
Go bigger 1st time out or you will be doing what we all did and taking hits on trading in for bigger, did we all buy saying "oh this is plenty big" yes we did, Did we wish we went bigger? yes we did!
Ours is plenty big and there are several models even bigger
Happy shopping keep asking questions someone will own every model out there and can help with any questions you may have.

Yep - go big or go home as they say.
In our 12ft garage on the 3612 I get 4 Quads - Raptor 660, 2- Honda 250's, Yamaha 90 and 2 bikes - a Yamaha TTr125 and a new Honda 250. THrow in tents, coolers, chairs and other assorted stuff there's still room to pile more (12ft ceiling!  )
I would have liked a longer garage but we make it all fit!
