Buy or hire the TB12-15 if...
Bailey's TB12-15 range covers three tipping trailer sizes on the same heavy commercial running gear, aimed at contractors and plant hire yards moving aggregate, spoil and site waste. The largest, the TB15, carries close to 20m3 of loose material, so it suits bulky waste rather than dense loads.

Buy or hire the LM146 if...
The LM146 is a general-purpose flatbed aimed at landscaping, construction and plumbing trades that need a long, wide load bed with a high payload on a single 3500kg-braked chassis. It is used where loads are bulky or awkwardly shaped rather than plant machinery, which typically goes on the ramped GX range instead.
