6×10 trailer Maybe Possible by deck size only if deck length is tight, especially with attachments. Confirm trailer payload, ramps, brakes, tie-downs and attachments before hauling.
6×12 trailer Likely Likely fits by deck size only. Confirm trailer payload, ramp rating, brakes, tie-downs and attachment weight before hauling.

John Deere 655 Trailer Setup Guide

Bare machine Start with a 5×10 or 6×10 utility trailer for deck size. Because no usable machine weight was found, confirm payload on the trailer placard before hauling
Mower deck or collection system A mower deck, bagger or collection system can increase width and weight, so check clearance between trailer fenders and side rails
Snow or rear attachments A snow blade, snow blower, rear attachment or hitch-mounted accessory can add length and weight. Measure the real setup, not just the bare machine
Weights and loaded tires Wheel weights, suitcase weights and loaded tires increase payload demand. Use the real loaded weight before choosing the trailer

John Deere 655 Hauling Notes

Trailer size note For the John Deere 655, the practical trailer starting point is 5×10 or 6×10 utility trailer. Treat this as a deck-size fit guide for the machine; confirm payload, ramp rating and tie-down capacity separately
Deck length note Deck length should be longer than the machine’s listed 108 in (9 ft / 2,743 mm) overall length so it can sit safely and be balanced over the axle
Deck width note Usable deck width matters more than advertised trailer width. The John Deere 655 is listed at 48 in (4 ft / 1,219 mm) wide, so check fender and rail clearance
Payload note No usable machine weight was found for this row, so treat this as a deck-size fit guide only. Confirm payload rating, ramp rating, brakes and tie-down capacity before hauling
Ramp and tie-down note Check ramp capacity, ramp angle, trailer brakes, axle rating and tie-down points. A machine that fits on the deck can still be unsafe if the trailer hardware is under-rated
Height note The listed overall height is 76 in (6.3 ft / 1,930 mm). This matters for enclosed trailers, garage doors, carports and low roof clearance
