Buy or hire the Standard Flatbed if...
- you want one that is 1.1 tonnes 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.
