When you've got a lot of gear to carry, every bit of space counts. 👌

This setup doesn't stop at what's inside the trailer.

A front-mounted storage box gives you extra space for the smaller stuff, while the ladder and roof racks take care of those long, awkward loads that just aren't going to fit inside.

Timber, ladders, lengths of pipe... chuck them up top and keep that valuable cargo space free for everything else.

Add the mud tyres underneath and this one's well set up for getting the gear where it needs to go — even when the job takes you off the tarmac. 💪

Built to haul some serious gear. 💪

This one was designed with loading, securing and protecting the gear in mind.

Internal tie-down rails give plenty of flexibility when it comes to strapping everything down, while plywood lining adds another layer of protection for the inside of the trailer.

External wheel guards keep the wheel arches out of the cargo space, giving you a nice, uninterrupted floor inside — and the fold-down rear door makes getting the heavy stuff in and out easy.

A proper workhorse, built around the job it's there to do. 👌

MYTH: My trailer doesn’t need brakes if it’s under 2,000kg.

Well... yes. And no. 😅

Under NZ trailer regulations, a trailer under 2,000kg doesn’t automatically need to have brakes fitted.

But that doesn’t necessarily mean your vehicle can tow it unbraked.

Your tow vehicle has its own braked and unbraked towing capacities, and many vehicles have an unbraked limit of around 750kg.

For example, you could have a single axle trailer rated to carry up to 1,500kg that doesn’t legally require brakes based on that rating alone.

But if the trailer itself weighs around 700kg empty and your vehicle is only rated to tow 750kg unbraked, that leaves you with just 50kg before you’ve reached your vehicle’s unbraked towing limit.

Add your bikes, tools, shelving or gear and you can see how quickly that disappears.

That’s why it’s important to check your vehicle’s braked and unbraked towing capacities and think about what your trailer will actually weigh once loaded.

Under 2,000kg doesn’t automatically mean “no brakes needed.” 👌

🔧 Another tool trailer heading off to its new owner.

These larger enclosed trailers have become incredibly popular, and it's easy to see why.

They offer plenty of secure storage, with the option of becoming a fully set-up mobile workshop as your business grows.

Load it up, lock it up, and everything you need is ready to go for the next job.

Simple. Practical. Built to work as hard as you do. 👌

Muddy paddocks and rough worksites? Bring it on. 💪

Winter means wet worksites, soggy paddocks and plenty of places where a bit of extra traction makes all the difference.

Our mud tyre upgrade gives you extra grip and increased ground clearance, helping your trailer tackle those rougher, wetter spots with confidence.

And with both our standard and mud tyres being 8-ply commercial grade, you're not choosing between strength OR traction, it's simply about choosing the setup that suits where your trailer needs to go.

Because sometimes getting the gear to the job is half the battle. 👌

MYTH: Tandem axles are always better.

Not necessarily! 👇

We love a good tandem, but more axles don't automatically mean a better trailer.

If you don't need the extra load capacity, a single axle can actually be the better choice. It's lighter, easier to manoeuvre by hand, generally costs less, and there's less running gear to maintain.

A tandem really comes into its own when you're carrying heavier loads or need the extra capacity, and for some of our larger builds, it's simply the right setup for the job.

But for lighter loads? There's no need to add an extra axle just because it sounds more heavy-duty.

It's all about matching the trailer to what you're actually going to use it for. 👌

Single or tandem — we'll help you figure out which one makes sense for your build.

🔨 Make the most of every bit of space.

A false floor is a seriously handy addition to our Small Tradie Trailers, especially when you've got long, awkward gear to carry.

The space underneath gives you dedicated storage for things like ladders, lengths of timber, or even full sheets of ply or GIB, keeping them tucked away and out of the main workspace.

Up top, you get a nice, even floor level for the side doors to open onto, making it easy to organize the rest of your tools and gear without having to work around what's stored underneath.

Long stuff below.
Everyday gear up top.
No wasted space. 👌

A clever way to pack a whole lot of storage into a compact trailer.

One trailer option that's easy to overlook? Ventilation. 💨

It's not the most exciting thing to think about when you're planning your new trailer, but depending on how you'll use it, good airflow can make a big difference.

Dark-coloured trailers in particular can get pretty warm sitting in the sun, while wet bikes, muddy gear or equipment can leave plenty of moisture behind once those doors are shut.

We don't include ventilation as standard because every trailer — and every customer — is different. A simple storage trailer might not need it at all, while a toy hauler, mobile workshop or trailer you'll spend time inside could really benefit from it.

There are plenty of options too, from simple louvre vents through to rotary roof vents and caravan-style pop-up vents that also bring in natural light.

The right setup comes down to how you'll use your trailer, how much airflow you need and, of course, your budget.

It's definitely worth thinking about before we build, because some ventilation options are much easier to incorporate into the trailer from the start.

Turn up. Open the doors. You're ready to go. 🙌

For sports clubs and community groups, a purpose-built trailer can make event days a whole lot easier.

Instead of gear being stored in different places, packed into cars or buried in boxes, everything has its own spot, with shelving and storage designed around exactly what your group needs to carry.

Equipment stays together, organized and secure between events, and when it's time to head out, there's a lot less packing, unpacking and wondering who was supposed to bring what. 😅

Whether it's sports gear, marquees, signage, tables, uniforms, fundraising supplies or event equipment, a custom setup means you can arrive, open up and get on with the day.

One trailer. Everything together. Ready for the next event.
