This is our most recent addition to the fleet and is the most specialist trailer we have to offer. Initially built to move large pains of glass  but has been engineered to be capable of hauling the tallest machinery that is below the limits set by the government for UK bridges and overpasses. Most commonly used for reach trucks and access equipment but has also been used for automated machinery with low ground clearance and high sensitivity (please see the video below for example).There is no other trailer type in the country that has a smaller loading height.

Glass Trailer 

Recovery Unit

A unique trailer initially used for the transportation of forklifts but in more recent times used for the recovery of immobile machinery which require assistance from the built in winch. The 9 tonne tail lift makes it the ideal trailer for this as it has minimal loading gradient compared to the more common trailers with a rear ramp. Offering a safer and more efficient option during loading. Rather than the standard curtain sided trailers, the solid sides reduces the risk of in transit losses of loads and thefts. Making it not only the perfect recovery trailer but useful for those high value loads. 

​

  • Due to the retractable roof, loads of up to 4m/13'2ft 

  • Tail lift capacity of 9 tonnes 

  • Width 94inches 

  • Lower bed length 9.45m/372inches 

  • Upper bed length 3.56m/140inches
