Choose the CarGO Connect if...
A configurable enclosed cargo trailer for tradespeople, exhibition and event companies and small hauliers who need a lockable, weatherproof load area rather than an open bed. The low bed height is what makes loading practical without a ramp gradient that fights you.
Sold across a range of bed lengths and in two or three axle form, so unladen weight varies by nearly 300kg across the range.

The Erde 143 is a step up in size from the Erde 102, still light enough for many family cars to tow without a braking system, and commonly used for camping, tip runs and light gardening or DIY loads. Its tipping body and low unladen weight make it a popular first trailer for private buyers.
