- Always check the trailer's payload rating against your equipment's weight before booking.

FAQs — Equipment Transport in Canberra
Common questions about using a trailer for equipment transport.
What trailer is best for transporting heavy machinery?▼
A flat-top or car trailer with a high GVM (gross vehicle mass) rating is ideal for heavy equipment. Check the trailer's rated payload and ensure your tow vehicle can handle the combined weight.
Do I need a special licence to tow heavy equipment in Australia?▼
Licence classes in Australia are set by the vehicle you drive rather than the trailer behind it, so a standard car licence covers the trailers listed here. What actually limits you is your own vehicle's rated towing capacity and towball download, both in its owner's manual. Rules differ by state, so check with your state road authority if you are unsure.
Can I tow a ride-on mower on a TrailerConnect trailer?▼
Yes — most cage and flat-top trailers can handle a ride-on mower. Check the payload, confirm there's ramp access, and ensure the trailer width accommodates your mower's wheel span.
