Buy or hire the AT 4019/27 if...
A tipping, low-bed car transporter from German builder Bockmann, rated to carry a car or light plant up to around 2 tonnes. The tipping bed and integral winch let one person load a non-runner without a separate ramp, which is what puts it in vehicle recovery and plant fleets rather than ordinary car trailers.

- you want one that is rated 300kg heavier gross
A flatbed trailer with a tilting deck, built for loading vehicles with low ground clearance or for vehicle recovery, where a fixed ramp angle would ground the car. Recovery operators and low-car owners choose it over a standard flatbed for that reason alone.
