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 ProLine Beavertail if...
The ProLine Beavertail suits owners of low-ground-clearance cars, since its beavertail ramp lets a car drive on and off without grounding, unlike a flat-bed transporter. PRG offers it across twin and tri-axle chassis so buyers can match the trailer to a 3000kg or 3500kg tow limit.
