You could probably haul it on a good 7,000 GVW trailer, you are probably right at the rating limit for that, but I would say 10,000 would be a better choice as you will have extra load capacity as well as larger brakes. Disadvantage is typically more trailer weight. 14 foot long probably absolute bare minimum, guessing here, 16 foot probably haul better, typically deck over style trailer will get you wider cheaper but then you have the tall deck. I would prefer a low profile trailer if it can be found in a suitable width between the wheels for your needs. It will likely be more money than deck over style. They load easier, haul nice, very stable. 3/4 ton or bigger truck, 350 or bigger motor, appropriate hitch, I would go with electric breaks not surge, I don't think you really need a goose neck but they do work well especially in the larger sizes. Bigger is generally a good thing when hauling heavy equipment but realize you need a truck that will pull the rig.
