Questions
Enclosed trailer questions
What does a enclosed trailer suit?
Covered hire for tools, event gear, cartons and loads that need weather cover.
What size is common for a enclosed trailer?
6x4 ft to 10x6 ft is a typical common range, with internal height differing by trailer.
Do I need a special licence to tow a hire trailer?
For most light trailer hires, a standard car licence is enough. You still need to stay inside your licence class, the vehicle tow rating, the trailer ATM and the road rules for the state you drive in.
What is towball weight?
Towball weight is the downward load the trailer puts on the towball. Too little can make the trailer sway, too much can overload the rear axle. Start with the trailer plate and your vehicle handbook.
Do I need electric brakes over 750 kg GTM?
A trailer with GTM over 750 kg needs its own braking system in Australia. If the hire trailer has electric brakes, the tow vehicle needs a working electric brake controller. Over 2,000 kg GTM, stronger braking and breakaway requirements apply.
How long can I hire a trailer for?
Same day, overnight, weekend and weekly hires are common. Confirm pickup times, return windows and late return rules with the hire yard before you book.
