Glavinized trailers are disposable. However, he did say c channel galvinized to tend to last much longer than tubular

well that guy i will tell is full of it ask Randle as well, i just bought his old galv trailer axles springs shot rest of the trailer you would think is brand new and it's an 88 model. i've seen alot of trailers that were steel and the axles be the only thing shot, it does depend on the brand as some brands cut corners and do crappy galv jobs and others do extremely good jobs and those will out last aluminum.
