Buy or hire the 12LT if...
The 12LT is Bateson's entry-level livestock trailer, the only single-axle model in its livestock range, aimed at smallholders and farmers moving calves, sheep or pigs in smaller numbers than a full cattle trailer would carry. Its low GVW keeps it towable by smaller 4x4s and pickups.
