Looking for a new trailer and wondering what to consider before buying? We’ve listed some handy tips to help you find the perfect trailer for your needs. Let’s get started!

Choose the right trailer type

Private users often think of a standard rental trailer, while professionals usually have more specific requirements. Either way, think carefully about how you’ll use it.

Flatbed trailer: standard model with side panels and open bed.
Multi transporter: flatbed with extras like ramps, tilt system and extensions.
Tipper: tilting flatbed for easy unloading.
Transporter: ideal for cars, motorcycles or machinery with advanced securing systems.

Consider size and weight

Make sure the trailer fits your needs, but also your driving licence limits. Length regulations (lighting & markings) also apply. Eduard dealers ensure full compliance.

Number of axles

Single, tandem or triple axle: more axles mean higher load capacity, but also more total weight. Balance is key.

Custom-built trailer

For intensive use, a tailored trailer is the way to go:

  • Type, dimensions and weight
  • Loading height & ramp system
  • Bodywork and accessories
  • Shock absorbers and supports
