That depends on the axle configuration. If it a closed tandem typically 17,000. If it is a spread axle 20,000. If it is a single axle (Front of a Semi) typically 12,000. Those would be the "legal weights", but states allow different amounts of weights with a permit for over weight. That all depends on the state. Wisconsin will allow 23,000 per axle.

The weight capacity of a 16-foot utility trailer can vary based on its design and materials, but most standard utility trailers typically have a payload capacity ranging from 2,000 to 3,500 pounds. It's important to check the manufacturer's specifications for the specific trailer model, as well as consider the trailer's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), which includes both the trailer's weight and its maximum load. Always ensure that you do not exceed these limits for safety and compliance.
The weight a single axle trailer can carry typically ranges from 1,500 to 7,000 pounds, depending on the trailer's design, materials, and axle rating. Most commonly, single axle trailers are rated for around 3,500 to 5,000 pounds. It's essential to check the manufacturer's specifications for the exact weight capacity and ensure that the load does not exceed this limit for safe towing. Additionally, consider the weight of the trailer itself when calculating total load capacity.
it refers to the weight you are legally allowed to carry on a trailer with brakes. (including the trailer) trailers without brakes are restricted to a lesser weight.
The total weight of the trailer and cargo can safely and legally carry what the axle is rated for, up to 3000 lbs with proper tires.
1600kg (including load) the trailer weighs 770kg unladen and is able to carry 830kg load.

The weight a three-axle trailer can carry depends on several factors, including its design, construction, and the specific regulations in place. Generally, a three-axle trailer can carry between 20,000 to 30,000 pounds (9,000 to 13,600 kg) of payload. However, it's essential to check the manufacturer's specifications and local weight limits to ensure compliance with legal requirements. Additionally, the weight distribution and load configuration play a crucial role in determining the trailer's capacity.
Not at 70MPH across the mountains...but depends on style and weight of the trailer dave
Most states you can carry up to 50k pounds. Empty trailer wieghs @ 10k lbs empty.
I have been looking to invest in dump trailers, and was wondering how much weight can the average dump trailer carry?
The definitive answer is...it depends. Very few trailers are made with axels of 2000lb (or less) capacity. Most are 2500 to 5000 llbs (per axle). So if you have a dual axle trailer with two 3500 lb axles you can haul 7000 lbs MINUS what the trailer weighs. I have a single axle 6X12 with a single 3500 lb axle. The trailer weighs approx 500 lbs, so I would feel relatively safe hauling a 3000 lb load.
