To determine the weight of your trailer, locate the VIN sticker on the frame. On the sticker, find the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating), which includes the trailer's empty weight and its rated capacity (MAX GVCC). For example, if your trailer, like the VATB-5225, has a GVWR of 6175 lbs and a MAX GVCC of 5225 lbs, you can calculate its empty weight:

GVWR (6175 lbs) - MAX GVCC (5225 lbs) = Empty weight of the trailer (950 lbs)

In this case, the empty weight of the VATB-5225 trailer is 950 lbs.
