Car Trailers
Car trailers made to order in our Queanbeyan workshop: open car floats you drive straight onto, tilt decks with a low loading angle, and fully enclosed car transporters. Each one is sized to your car and rated for the weight it carries. We build motorcycle trailers too.

Buyer's guide
The car trailers we build
Open car floats
A flat drive-on deck on tandem or tri-axles, with slide-out or fold-down ramps. We have added recessed wheel wells, twin spare wheels and removable headboards.
Tilt deck trailers
The deck tilts so the loading angle stays low for sports cars, project cars and anything that sits close to the road.
Beavertail decks
The back of the deck slopes down to meet fold-out ramps, so a car rolls on without bottoming out at the top of the ramp.
Enclosed car transporters
A lockable body that keeps the car dry and out of sight. One recent build has a hydraulic canopy that lifts clear for loading and a lined interior.
Motorcycle trailers
Bike trailers with wheel chocks and tie-down points for each bike. We have built them for three bikes with mesh infill on the sides.

Common questions
Does a car trailer need brakes?
Almost always. Under the national rules a trailer over 750 kg ATM needs brakes, and over 2,000 kg it needs brakes on every wheel that the driver can apply from the tow vehicle, plus a breakaway system. Once a car is on board most car trailers are well past 2,000 kg, so we fit brakes to suit the rating.
What size car trailer do I need?
It depends on the car, not a standard size. We set the deck length and width to your car with room to tie it down, and rate the trailer for the car plus the trailer itself. Tell us the car and what you tow with and we will work it out with you.
Can my tow vehicle pull a car trailer?
Check its towing capacity and towball limit first. A loaded car trailer is one of the heaviest things most people tow. Both are in your owner's manual, and we will talk it through with you before we build.
Can you service or inspect a car trailer I already own?
Yes. The workshop services and repairs car trailers whoever built them, and we are a licensed provider of NSW and ACT registration safety inspections.
