I can't help you with the empty weight of the trailer. Find the nearest truck stop that has CAT scales for that. You can calculate your GVWR. For a tandem axle trailer, take the lesser of the capacity of wheels, tires, or axle. For example let's use an axle rating of 7k. 2 axles is 14k. Now measure from the coupler to the center of the trailer box. Call this measurement A. Now measure from coupler to the midpoint between the axles. Call this B. Divide A by B. Call this C. Now divide 14k by C. This is your GVWR.
