Buy or hire the Provan if...
A lightweight two-horse trailer for private owners and small livery yards who want to tow with a car on a standard B96 licence rather than needing a 7.5 tonne horsebox. The all-polyester body and large front ramp aim to make loading easier than a steel-bodied trailer of similar size.

Buy or hire the TB Tiltbed if...
- you want one that is 41cm (1.5ft) wider inside
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.
