Buy or hire the GX106 if...

  • you want one that carries 2,310kg more
  • you want one that is rated 2,750kg heavier gross

Bought where machinery is too wide for the 1.57m GX105HD bed but the shorter 3.03m length is still enough, typically for wider skid-steers and small rollers.

Buy or hire the ECO745 if...

  • you want one that is 440kg lighter empty

A taller, longer-bedded version of the Eco Box range for buyers needing more internal volume while staying unbraked. At 1470mm internal height it will take a stacked load standing up, which is what separates a box trailer from a flatbed with sides, while staying under the 750kg unbraked limit.
