Buy or hire the Maxi 3 if...
The Maxi 3 is aimed at owners who regularly need to move three horses at once, using diagonal herringbone stalls and a full-size tack room rather than a simple extension of a two-horse layout. At 3500kg GVW it needs a suitably rated tow vehicle and, for newer licence holders, category B+E entitlement.

Buy or hire the TT3017 if...
A mid-size powered tipper used by groundworkers, agricultural contractors and self-builders moving muck, aggregate and spoil. The electric tipping ram is what you are paying for over a hand-winch tipper, and on a trailer used weekly it earns that back quickly.
