Low Loader

The low loader is extremely versatile, and regularly used by local construction firms and farmers for moving plant hire equipment to different sites. Your vehicles are driven straight up the trailer ramps, before being secured into position. Allowing you to quickly and cost efficiently move equipment around the country.
