What's the best trailer for a tracked wood chipper?

Would anyone know if I can use a tipping trailer for the daily transporting of a tracked chipper like a T/W190TR or similar or even something smaller like a Jensen 530T. So would a tipping trailer do the job well or do I need to get a plant trailer? Any advice please, thanks.

I have a Ifor Williams GH 6X4 plant trailer, double leaf springs, spring assisted tail gate and mesh infill on the gate, about 2 years old, got it for a tw150 tracked and a predator 28 going on ebay soon, it worked great for that.

I use a GX 84 plant trailer for my 150 VTR, but if I have to take the grinder I use my TT 105 10x5 tipper which I can get both on. If u can have both as a tipping trailer is very handy.

Cheers thanks. Its good to know the tipping trailer copes okay with your chipper and the stump grinder, because as you say a tipping trailer is so handy I was thinking I could avoid getting both and just use the tipping trailer to save on costs.

The advantage of the plant trailer is you can then use the chipper like a tow behind, let the ramp down and chip away, on the tipping trailer the bed is too high.
