Yes, brakes are required on a trailer, especially parking brakes. This is to ensure safe parking on any level grade. Trailer brakes in general help to ensure safe stopping with heavy loads. Brakes on all wheels are required in Maryland for trailers with a registered gross weight of at least 10,000 lbs.

To determine what trailers your vehicle can pull, you must first know the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). This is often found on your VIN label.


Make sure that you subtract the EMPTY weight of the trailer from the GVWR to determine your cargo capacity – the GVWR includes the trailer and its load. An empty trailer that matches your GVWR would have no cargo limit safe for your vehicle.

You always want to stay under 80% of your towing capacity for safety. To ensure a trailer a is compatible with your vehicle, check your vehicle’s GVWR, the weight of the empty trailer, and the weight of your cargo.

A secure connection of the trailer to your vehicle will be dependant on which trailer hitch you purchase. At C&C, we can help you ensure a safe towing journey.
