  1. Near Ipswich, England. SCH is maybe 20 minutes drive from me, (and 30 from the essex-suffolk border) so it's a convenient manufacturer. However they have no tandem axle, and I'm unsure how much I can actually tow with an ATV, so their GPATV might not be suitable. The Yamaha seems to be rated to 600kg towed, but I've barely towed half that before with the current trailer.
  2. Thank you for the suggestions. My main concern with the arborist trolley is that the timber has been cut into small pieces that have already been cut to length, ready to split with an axe. So I couldn't make the most of its unique shape, as it's designed to carry long limbs. I'm wondering if something like this would be suitable due to the extra capacity, or if the ATV wouldn't be able to pull it packed with logs. As few journeys as possible would be ideal, as I have a long way to travel and a lot of logs to get through. I'll keep looking for one with a tandem axle as suggested
  3. That's a good idea, I hadn't considered a tandem axle. Towing with a Yamaha Grizzly 700
  4. The estate that I work on is looking to buy a new ATV trailer for carting firewood. I have to move many tonnes of cut and dried wood through narrow, winding paths, and I'm looking for something that can remain stable travelling at speed. Robustness is important, as our current trailer has to be loaded lightly and taken slow due to the bumpy offroad conditions. If anyone has suggestions that would be great. There are a few that I have my eye on, but I need more convincing!
