Hire a Trailer Near You
Hire from a local owner near your address, load at your own pace, return it when you're done. From $35/day.
Why hire from a local owner instead of a depot?
You see the owner's daily rate and our service fee before you pay, and cover is optional. No fuel levies are added at pickup.
No clock running from the moment you leave. Hire for the day, load when you're ready, and return when the job's done — not when the depot closes.
Local owners are available evenings and weekends — not just 9–5 business hours. Arrange a time that suits your move, not theirs.

Trailer hire for moving — FAQ
TrailerConnect is a peer-to-peer marketplace — you hire from a local owner near you and return the trailer to them when your move is done. There's no depot drop-off at a different location. For interstate moves, many people hire a trailer near their origin address, complete the move, then hire another local trailer at the destination if needed.
Find a trailer near your current address on TrailerConnect, book it online, and pick it up at an agreed time. Load at your own pace, drive to your new place, unload, then return the trailer to the owner. Trailer hire starts from $35/day — far cheaper than a removalist van, and you're not paying for an extra person.
It can be. Each local owner sets their own daily rate, and you see that rate and our service fee before you pay, with no fuel levies added at pickup. Most local owners are flexible about pickup times; agree any change to your return time with the owner before it is due.
TrailerConnect is designed for local trailer hire — all trailers must be returned to the owner's pickup location after your hire. We don't offer one-way interstate hire where you drop the trailer off in a different city. For interstate moves, you would need to arrange your own return transport or use a dedicated removalist service.
For a single room or small apartment, a 7×5 or 8×5 cage or box trailer is usually enough. For a 2–3 bedroom house, a 10×5 or 10×6 cage trailer or enclosed trailer will handle most loads in one trip. Check the trailer's listed dimensions and payload before booking.
