What to Check When Buying a Used Trailer

  • Inspect the chassis for corrosion, cracks or previous repairs.
  • Check the floor or load bed for damage and weakness.
  • Inspect tyres for age, damage and uneven wear.
  • Check wheel bearings and hubs where possible.
  • Test lights, plug connections and electrical equipment.
  • Check brakes and handbrake on braked trailers.
  • Inspect coupling, hitch and breakaway cable.
  • Confirm the trailer's plated weight and load capacity.
  • Check ramps, doors, catches and tie-down points.
  • Make sure your tow vehicle is suitable for the trailer.

Plant & Machinery Trailers

Plant trailers are popular with builders, landscapers, groundworkers and businesses needing to move compact machinery between jobs.

Buyers should pay particular attention to the trailer's plated weight, payload, brakes, ramps and tie-down points. The combined weight of the trailer and load must remain within the legal limits of the trailer and towing vehicle.

Car Transporters & Flatbed Trailers

Car Transporters

Car transporter trailers can be useful for moving classic cars, project vehicles, non-runners and other suitable vehicles.

Check bed dimensions, ramp length, winch condition and the trailer's maximum permitted weight.

Flatbeds

Flatbed trailers provide flexibility for carrying machinery, building materials and other loads that are awkward to transport in an enclosed trailer.

Good tie-down points and correct load security are particularly important.

Trailer Weight & Towing

Before buying a trailer, check both the trailer's maximum authorised mass and the towing capacity of the vehicle you intend to use.

The towing vehicle, trailer and load must all remain within their applicable legal weight limits. Driving-licence rules and other requirements may also apply depending on the vehicle, trailer and intended use.
