Delivering vented bags

[farmer_ben]

vauxhaul brava, but changing shortly to a single cab ranger or l200 4work.

I think a crane like i have on the back of my LT would be too big for a ranger, its not the size its the weight it can lift and move around. I would say you would be looking at a swing lift too.

Just not much space to hold logs is there, but i suppose you could tow a large trailer no worries!

 

I found a landy 130 at a firm in the uk that had a 3way tipping back and a small hiab, that was 15k too.

my firewood trailer:

 

Indespension plant trailer with a hiab fitted to it, 24v electric pump powers it, will lift 3/4 ton. can get six 1/2 m3 bags on if need be. also great for picking up big lumps of wood. looking for some tractor timber tongs for it if anyone knows where to get a decent set?

 

Even has a little ram for lifting it on and off the truck, which can be used as an outrigger when lifting heavy stuff

Is that trailer legal to tow behind a standard 4x4/truck due to it's nose weight?

does it matter

[Dave Alviti]

its not that heavy really, the plant trailer distributes the weight quite well, certainly no worse than having a mini digger on there

When you have done your deliveries and are running home empty there is an extra 200ish kg between the front wheels and hitch. Most vehicles have a max vertical hitch load of 100kg. Are you telling me you are within these limits?
