Choose 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.

The Erde 102 is one of the smallest trailers Erde sells, light enough to be towed by small cars and many motorcycles, and pitched at campers and gardeners rather than tradespeople. Its tipping body makes it easy to empty garden waste or loose loads without lifting them out by hand.
