Could not really tell you. I built those myself to meet our needs. The first one had a solid steel deck but it was a little heavy. Dad uses it out on the farm and its good where he goes. The second was a expanded mesh just like the sides. Tandem 2000 lb hwy axels, springs, attaching parts rims and tires was @ $500
Seems to me at the time I would have needed $1800.00 cdn to sell it with labour and materials. But you know how the labour goes on the home built stuff.
If you can't roll your own, I'd ask a trailer mfg about putting a tandem axel under one of their lite utility trailers in something about 5 by 8' ft. I could have added electric brakes, but they are really not needed where I go.
I would not recomend it for use in the mountains, but it is surprizing how easy the wheeler handles 1500 lbs on grades of 15% or less.
