My logtrailer

as long as you tow it with a quad registered as light agricultural, the weight limit doesnt apply, only a 25mph limit

I was impressed by Teed’s video of his Chinese-made ATV log trailer. Especially for those of us on smaller operations, working awkward ground, Teed’s trailer looks good. This type of trailer may be popular in Sweden but I haven’t found a UK supplier importing from China. It is for sale in Germany at £851 incl VAT but freight would be another £200+ [ Logging trailer, forestry trailer HR500 + crane for small tractors and ATV Quad - Motorgeräte Fritzsch GmbH ] but that is imported from Sweden after having been imported from China first…. So the freight charges stack up.

 

I’ve found the (or a) manufacturer in China. It works out at £676 carriage paid to Liverpool docks (I’m in the NW). VAT is extra if you’re not VAT registered. I don’t think there is any import duty on this sort of machinery. Half the cost is freight - basic trailer cost in China is £338. I’ve not definitely decided to import one but if anyone else is interested that would reduce the proportionate cost of the shipping on each trailer. So if anyone is interested I’ll let you have more details.

I think I paid £650-700 for my in Sweden when I bought it a few years ago
