I want to buy a new registered lightweight 6 x 4 Box Trailer from Caringbah Sydney shortly, need it brought down to Albury or Melbourne.
So if anyone needs the use of such trailer, (600kg GVM), for this route.
PM me.
Cheers
I know it doesn't help you, but why do you need to buy one in Caringbah?
I live near there, and have been looking at trailers. What are their trailers like?
No manufacturers make light/medium duty around here!
I'm looking for a light trailer for a holiday / windsurf transport.
The caringbah based trailers on ebay look to be a well priced unit.
Nice tie down points and comes registered.
Not sure on Quality, but for the money, 5 - 10 years life would be enough!
Wanting it ready by Xmas holidays, for a trip to the coast with my full kit for once.
^^^^ Seems a reasonable price for a brand new trailer with rego.
Only question is how good is the paint/rust protection system?
I live very much inland so the trailer wouldn't get much exposure to coastal conditions. Holidays mainly.
This is the only one I could find, in this price range, that comes with new wheels and tyres and 12 months registration.
The sides are a bit deeper than other cheapies as well.
Melbourne would be great, but nothing else i've seen on ebay/trading post stacks up.
I went and took a look at the trailer place, as I don't live that far away. They seem okay. They look like they build a lot of trailers.
I asked for other sizes, and he quoted $675 for the 6x4, $775 for a 7x4, and $875 for a 8x4. I also asked if you could leave the front open, and he said that they can have a front tailgate for an extra $60.
I figure it would be good to be able to fit most boards inside, but some boards I have are too long for even a 8x4. I should have asked about a 9x4...
I also asked about the stud pattern, and they can do commodore or ford stud patterns. This matters to me, as I think its better to match them to the towing car, if you have a commodore or falcon.
In Dec 2011 I had a custom 6 x 4 made by Australian trailers in Mordialloc for around $1k with the following:
Extended drawbar (easier towing but now have to register, but $40 P/A in Vic is great)
Spare tyre mounted on drawbar
removable 3 bike rails c/w with all fittings and proper tie down points front and rear.
deeper sides
LED lights
Swinging jockey wheel
Jerry can holder
Front and rear 'tailgates'
750kg rating
It was so good I gave a bottle of bundy to the guy that built it.
