Buy or hire the Touring Country if...

  • you want one that is rated 1.1 tonnes heavier gross

The most direct continental alternative to the Ifor Williams HB range. It is both larger inside and lighter unladen than the HB506, which is the trade-off worth understanding: more room per kilo, from aluminium and composite construction rather than steel.

Buy or hire the Standard Flatbed if...

  • you want one that is 500kg lighter empty

A general-purpose flatbed trailer range built in several weight ratings on the same 6'1" wide bed, so hire and sales yards can offer one design across light and heavier loads. It suits plant, vehicle and general haulage rather than any single specialist job.
