Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to register my trailer?
All of our trailers must be legally registered according to VicRoads guidelines. A trailer can be registered under the name of an individual or a company.
Are any of your trailers exempt from registration?
No, our trailers are not exempt from registration since they do not meet the criteria for exemption in Victoria. A light trailer is exempt from registration if it:
- Has a tare mass of less than 200kg when unladen,
- Is not wider than the towing vehicle,
- Measures 3m or less in length, including the drawbar,
- Is not used for business purposes.
Can you register trailers on-site?
Yes, we offer on-site registration services during pickup for customers in Victoria. We provide the number plate and registration documents on the spot.
Can I register your trailers interstate?
Yes, our trailers can be registered in other states, but this requires the customer to familiarise themselves with their state’s rules and regulations. We can provide a 7-day travel permit to tow the trailer from Victoria to the desired state. Please contact us for more information.
Do you offer financing options?
We offer various financing options to make purchasing easier. Please contact us for more details.

How often should I service my trailer?
We recommend scheduling service every 12 months for your trailer. Regular servicing is crucial for maintaining optimal performance and safety, preventing costly repairs, and ensuring a longer lifespan for your trailer. Please contact us to book an appointment.
What is the warranty period for your trailers?
Our trailers come with a 12-month structural warranty. This period can be extended for an additional 12 months if the trailer is serviced by us after the first year.
What does ‘Hot Dip Galvanised’ mean?
Hot dipped galvanizing is a process where the trailer is coated in molten zinc, providing superior corrosion resistance. Hot dipped galvanised trailers are more durable and require minimal maintenance.
What is the Trailer ATM and how do I find it?
The Aggregate Trailer Mass (ATM) is the total weight of the trailer when fully loaded, without being attached to a towing vehicle. You can find the ATM marked on the trailer’s compliance plate or in the registration documentation.
What is the Trailer Tare Mass and how do I find it?
The Trailer Tare Mass is the weight of the trailer itself, without any load. It represents the empty weight of the trailer. You can find the Tare Mass on the trailer’s compliance plate or in the registration documentation.
Where do I find the maximum loading capacity of my trailer?
To find out the maximum loading capacity, subtract the Tare Mass from the ATM, as marked on the trailer’s compliance plate.
What are the benefits of choosing a dual axle over a single axle trailer?
Increased Load Capacity: Dual axle trailers can carry heavier loads.
Improved Stability: They offer better stability and less sway.
Better Weight Distribution: This reduces stress on each axle and tyre.
Enhanced Safety: In case of a tyre failure, the other tyres can support the load.
Smoother Ride: Generally provides a smoother towing experience.
What are the benefits of choosing a single axle over a dual axle trailer?
Lower Cost: Generally less expensive to purchase and maintain.
Lighter Weight: Easier to tow.
Maneuverability: More agile, easier to handle in tight spaces.
Simpler Maintenance: Fewer tyres, brakes, and bearings to maintain.
What is the difference between rocker roller and slipper springs?
All of our tandem trailers come with rocker roller suspension, which provides improved load distribution, enhanced ride quality, and increased durability, in comparison to slipper springs.
Better handling, adjustable for varying loads.
Ideal for heavy or uneven loads.

Provides a smoother and safer towing experience.
What are Eye to Eye (Shackle) Springs?
Eye to Eye Leaf Springs (Shackle Springs) offer improved ride comfort, can carry heavier loads, last longer, and cause less wear and tear on the trailer’s chassis compared to slipper springs.
Is the tilt option standard on all your single axle trailers?
Yes, all our single axle trailers come with a manual tilt/tipper option at NO EXTRA COST, making unloading easier and more efficient.
Are your trailer canvas covers removable?
Yes, our canvas covers are designed to be easily removable for your convenience.
Can you customise trailers?

Where are your trailers manufactured?
Our trailers are imported and assembled in Australia. They undergo rigorous testing and are designed in accordance with the Australian Design Rules (ADR). Additionally, they are approved and certified under the Road Vehicle Standards Act 2018 (RVSA), supported by testing reports from accredited facilities.
It is important to be aware that products failing to meet ADR standards not only carry quality risks but may also affect your insurance claims.
We can also manufacture Australian Made trailers, both painted and galvanised, based on orders.
