Buy or hire the LM126 if...
- you want one that is rated 500kg heavier gross
A workhorse flatbed for plant hire firms, groundworkers and landscapers moving mini-diggers, pallets and fencing. The payload relative to its own weight is the reason it is so common on sites: 675kg unladen against a 3,500kg gross leaves a useful figure.

Buy or hire the ProLine Beavertail if...
The ProLine Beavertail suits owners of low-ground-clearance cars, since its beavertail ramp lets a car drive on and off without grounding, unlike a flat-bed transporter. PRG offers it across twin and tri-axle chassis so buyers can match the trailer to a 3000kg or 3500kg tow limit.
