woodchipper and stumpy on a tipper trailer

[Dean O]

I recently had my 8x5 tipper trailer stolen.

 

I was considering getting a 10x5 with ramps etc in the hope that it would be useful to occasionally get the stumpy (bandit turntable jobby) and chipper (tw230vtr) on....

 

would this be possible on a 10 footer tho?

I don't really want to go above this size if I can help it.

 

anyone do similar?

 

I obviously already have a plant trailer which does the job of carrying either the stumpy or the chipper, but wont carry both.

 

a new, bigger plant trailer would obviously do this job better than a tipper, but doesn't have the advantage of being able to chip into/ carry logs when needed...

 

opinions - good/bad

 

thanks

We converted at work from 8x5 to 10x5, best thing we did, so many more options.

argh, cant open the Facebook link.

probably because I'm not a face booker, rather than a dodgy link tho'.

sounds positive so far tho, thanks for the replies so far.

Your grinder must be quite a narrow one Johnny?

gosh that's a good fit.

 

theres no way I'd get the 230 and our stumpy on side by side

is that a 5ft wide or 6ft wide trailer?

just also recalled that the 10x5 tippers have got a bar running across their width halfway along their length when with the high sides - I was planning on getting the solid high sides - will this scupper the plan for carrying the chipper??

 

does this bar have to remain in place?
