Who Needs a Toy Hauler?

Anyone who likes RVing and also likes other equipment-intensive pastimes like ATVing or snowmobiling is a great candidate for a toy hauler. 

Toy haulers are simply large, sturdy fifth-wheels or travel trailers that have a rear cargo “garage.” The “toys” most manufacturers have in mind when they build these rigs are usually offroad vehicles such as ATVs or UTVs, but you can use your garage however you like. 

Here’s some info about this category of towable RVs, from the team at John's RV Sales & Service. We’re in Lexington, South Carolina, just 18 miles west of Columbia on Interstate 20. 

Who Needs a Toy Hauler?

As we said, the classic use of the toy hauler is to take off-road toys to the campsite so they can go ripping around the area. The garage space has built-in tie-downs so you can secure your load. Since you can only pull one trailer, this lets you have both your offroad toys and a comfy RV to sleep in. 

Another type of user is the golf cart aficionado. Again, you can only haul one trailer. If you want a small, quiet, economical vehicle to get around town so you can leave your truck behind, park a golf cart in your toy hauler garage, and take it on the road at your destination. 

There are lots of other sports and hobbies that are easier with a toy hauler. You can bring bikes for the whole family, kayaks, inflatable boats, skis, snowboards, and all the associated gear in your garage, and keep the living space uncluttered for your downtime. 

Fairs and Festivals

People who vend or have other responsibilities at fairs and festivals are also good candidates for a toy hauler. The big rear space is built for heavy loads, so merchandise and booth materials can be transported inside. 

Nomadic Work

If you want to work from an RV and you require some space, a toy hauler is perfect. The garage space can be tricked out as a podcast studio, a mobile office, a dog-grooming salon, a beautician’s studio, an art studio, or a woodshop. The sky’s the limit! 

Hunting and Fishing

A toy hauler makes a great hunting cabin. You can bring an ATV or UTV along, and you also have space for the deer you bagged. If you love to fish, there’s plenty of room for an inflatable boat, waders, and all the equipment you could ever need.

Versatile Space

Many toy haulers let you convert the garage space into living space when you aren’t hauling your ATVs in it. Some have fold-away chairs and tables, and some have queen-sized beds you can lower. Some also let you convert the rear ramp into a raised patio, perfect for hanging out and watching the world go by.
