    Parkit360 5000# versus Trax Trailer Dolly 6000#

    Does anyone have experience with these two trailer movers? I need one to turn my 19' Skeeter around in the driveway and back into the garage (with minor slope). I am wondering which might be better. I've read through previous threads and do not recall the Trax being mentioned.

    I have not weighed it, but assume the Skeeter weighs 3,500 to 4,000# fully loaded. I can swing the boat around by hand, but it is getting tougher as I age.....

    I have a Park-it-360 but went with the 10,000 lb to be safe. My boat is 4,500 lbs. I have had it for seven years and works great on flat services and small inclines. You will have to jack the hitch up 24” to mount the trailer on the dolly. The Trax is also a good unit from what I have heard.

    I've got the Trax TX6000 that I bought new in March 2023 when I moved into my house. The street is tight and I was worried about cars blocking me from backing my boat in normally. I used it a few times to get my skeeter zx225 into the driveway. Its strong and works well but is a little difficult to turn sharply, needs to be more a gradual turn. Now I never need to use it thankfully and it just sits in my garage. If you want to make a drive up to VA to get it I will sell it to you for a good price, shoot me a DM if interested.

    I have a Trailer Valet. Although expensive it’s great. Remote control and will put
    the boat exactly where I want it. Good luck

    I have the Parkit 10k. I use it to spot my Ranger 520c (dual axle trailer) in my garage. My garage door clearance is tight and the dolly makes things a lot less stressful. Be sure to get the larger tires-I upgraded mine for better traction.

    Trax 6000 for me. Love mine. Heard the Park it 360 was a bit on the noisy side. Which ever one get the larger tires. PS tried the Hand Crank trailer valet, after one attempt it went back.

    Traction is very important when going uphill into a garage with any trailer mover, for any unit get the upgraded tires/wheels if possible.
