Sled trailer rental or borrow

I hate to ask this on here, but anyone know where I can rent a 4place open deck sled trailer central Alberta, I own a two place and a sled deck but I'm not sure if my dodge 2500 5.7 will allow for the weight at the border, thanks 4 m8 2009 and 4 average guys if that helps

Lots of different 2500 GVWR's depending on truck year and configuration. Some, like the 2012 CC short box allows 2360 lbs payload so you should be good with 2 M8's & deck and the two place pull behind. It is all about the legal rating of your truck. What doe the door sticker say?

Put 1 on deck and 3 on trailer to get through, then switch

If it fit this way he would probably just go that way for the trip.

Can't fit 3 on a trailer it's a 12ft v nose and 153 cats can can barely fit 3 on my 16ft high boy unless you's have a different way

They don't give a chit about weight at the border

What do they check for then, how come I've heard of guys getting turned around

I've done three 154 XM'S on a 12x8.5 open with a 2' v nose. 2 facing front and back the 3rd in between.

They dont have a checkpoint at the provincial borders, maybe the USA border but i don't remember seeing one.
I used to haul three sleds on my 14' tandem axle trailer all the time, front two sleds spread open and third one up the middle, middle sled stuck out about a foot. 12' single axle might be a little sketchy.

I think we got it figured out now, gonna use my friends f350 with my sled deck and my two place trailer should be fine

Frig see that it was done on a sled deck so trailer is usually just as wide but longer, lol
