Buy or hire the GH Plant with DigaDoc if...
- you want one that is rated 1.2 tonnes heavier gross
Bought by plant hire and groundworks firms that need to prove what left the yard and where it went, since DigaDoc records load movements electronically on top of the standard GH plant trailer chassis. It is the same GH94 base trailer as the plain GH94, with the tracking hardware added.

Buy or hire the Standard Flatbed if...
- you want one that is 259kg 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.
