Key Features to Look for in a Plant Trailer
When choosing a plant trailer, it’s important to consider payload capacity, loading ease, and security features. Here’s what to look for:
Ramp Options – Which One is Best?
When choosing a ramp, it's important to consider the type of machinery you're transporting. Solid ramps provide full-width support, making them ideal for heavy machinery that requires extra stability. Split ramps, on the other hand, are lighter and easier to handle, making them a great option for transporting multiple load types. If you need more flexibility, slide-out ramps allow for variable loading angles, which helps reduce the risk of clearance issues on uneven surfaces.
Load Capacity – How Much Can You Carry?
Plant trailers come in a range of payload capacities, usually between 2,000kg and 3,500kg. To stay within legal towing limits, always check the weight of your machinery and match it to a trailer that can handle the load safely. Overloading not only puts unnecessary strain on your towing vehicle but also increases the risk of accidents.
Tie-Down Points – Securing Your Load
Making sure your load is properly secured is key to safe towing. The best plant trailers offer multiple lashing points, allowing you to secure different types of machinery with ease. Many models also include integrated D-rings or welded hooks, which provide additional security. A non-slip bed surface can also help prevent shifting during transport, giving you extra peace of mind on the road.
