Trailer chip box

[hazzygawa]

I brought mesh sides for my tt105g Ifor from IW's before the vat went up. They cost a bloody fortune. But it looks a whole lot better than it did with thick ply greedy boards. I plan on just tarping the inside when chipping into it as the timberwolf doesnt exactly Shute it to the front of the trailer at great pace. Then I just fold tarp up when it's tipped off. Job done.

Finally got the box finnished today, just in time for a full days chipping tomorrow! looks like it will hold a fair bit and i dont think it looks too bad. Made it so its only a couple screws to take off and it can be removed easily.

Yertiz, only an 8 footer but any longer I'd be more than overweight with almost 5m3 of chip in there as it is. The extra ratchet strap going all the way round is only on when the trailer is so full I have to put an extra board at the back to stop carpeting the road with chip!

 

Edit; The boards are only up once parked and the trailer being chipped into; saves fuel when towing empty - I just remove the strap, twist in the headboard and flop it down flat and just fold the others down flat on top - a 2 minute job. Chip stops them flapping about.
