Buy or hire the BV105 if...
A general enclosed trailer for tradespeople and small hauliers who need to keep tools, bikes or stock dry and locked away rather than under a sheet. It sits below the BV125/BV106 in the range, so it suits loads that need weather protection but not extra width or gross weight.
