Buy or hire the 100LT if...

Bateson's largest livestock trailer, a 20ft tractor-drawn unit with a fully galvanised, demountable container. At 10 tonnes gross it suits livestock hauliers and farms moving full loads of cattle or sheep rather than the smaller trailers aimed at hobby keepers.

Buy or hire the Oblic+2 if...

A two-horse trailer that loads horses at a diagonal rather than straight ahead, giving nervous travellers more room to brace. It is hired by owners moving horses that struggle in conventional straight-loading boxes; UK ads sometimes list it under Cheval Liberte, the dealer that distributes it, rather than its actual French maker Fautras.
