Road tow 3.5t bolster log trailer?

Hi all,

 

We're in Germany this week going to visit the Unsinn trailer factory. We'll be importing them shortly (get your orders in - first batch much cheaper than later batches to get them out there).

 

Anyway, I was thinking on the flight over that perhaps a bolstered trailer (basically a forwarding trailer, minus the crane and with heavy duty road axles) might be something that was useful to some of you. Is this the case? Would the ability to transport 2.8-3t of logs be handy? Unsinn make a lot of specialised trailers and manufacturing something like this might be in their remit. Might not even be a very expensive trailer as there isn't much to a logging trailer.

 

Something like this I suppose, minus the crane and a bit smaller:

Any interest to anyone?

Their 10ft, high sided, 3way, 3500kg tipper looks very handy, be interested in prices and what you think after a crawl over them

 

I shall report back! A friend in Edinburgh has ordered one of the 2600kg high sided 3 way tippers, but I've not explored the 3500kg one yet.

There may be people with tight access on there own wood land that need to get a drop of wood home. But I think when I looked into it it was cheaper to get an arctic or 8 wheeler than run it back and forth with a big 4x4

Right, back from Germany (from glorious blue skies to miserable driving rain and greyness).

 

I'll respond to individual requests for quotes shortly, but we were extremely impressed with the entire experience at Unsinn's factory. Their production process is clinical, their quality outstanding and their value for money excellent. Their trailers are also extremely customisable and they offer a much broader range than anything you'd find here.

 

I'm ordering myself a heavy duty 3500kg triaxle 14x6ft 8". My local haulier is likely to be taking a 20ft trailer specifically designed to take 20ft shipping containers, twist locks and all. A chap that works for me is taking a 9ft cage sided tipper.

 

Give us a bit of time to get set up, but full details will be made available soon. In the mean time, have a look at Unsinn's online catalogue and get in touch.

Sounds good, I look forward to some costings on their skip loading trailer.

 

Thanks

 

 

Eddie.
