The trailer jobs Canberra locals hire for most

Every city has its own rhythm of trailer jobs, set by the way people live and the trips they need to make. In Canberra, the loads that come up again and again are share-house and apartment moves, autumn green runs and Marketplace pickups.

Tip and rubbish runs lead the list. A 6x4 box trailer (from $40) is the everyday tool for a boot-load too big for the car, and a cage trailer (from $50) is the pick when the load is light but bulky, like a mattress, boxes or a garden clean-up. The city's resource management centres take general and green waste, with green waste often separated for a lower fee.

Moves are close behind. A small one or two bedroom shift, a rental exit or a Marketplace pickup often does not need a full removalist. A furniture trailer (from $70) keeps the load dry and out of the wind, and an enclosed or high-side design protects a fridge or a wardrobe on the drive.

Vehicle and machine moves turn up too. Buying a car, shifting a ride-on mower or moving a small machine calls for a car carrier or transporter (from $80), with ramps and a rated coupling matched to the weight. Always check your tow vehicle is rated for the combined load.

Then there are the material jobs. Soil, sand, gravel and mulch for a landscaping project are heavy and awkward to shovel out of a flat tray, so a tipper trailer (from $90) that lifts and tips saves your back. Wide streets and generous blocks make towing and parking a loaded trailer straightforward.
