Medium Plant Trailer hire - frequently asked questions
What is a medium plant trailer suitable for?
Medium plant trailers handle machinery in the 3,000-8,000 kg range - typically midi excavators (3-8 tonne), compact telehandlers, and large dumpers. They bridge the gap between standard plant trailers and low loaders.
Do medium plant trailers need a special vehicle?
Yes - a pickup truck or large 4x4 with a tow rating of at least 3,500 kg is the minimum. For heavier machinery, a dedicated plant mover with a C licence is required.
What is a beaver-tail trailer?
A beaver-tail trailer has a raised rear section that tapers down to reduce the loading angle, making it easier to load tracked machines without scraping the undercarriage.
