A workhorse flatbed for plant hire firms, groundworkers and landscapers moving mini-diggers, pallets and fencing. The payload relative to its own weight is the reason it is so common on sites: 675kg unladen against a 3,500kg gross leaves a useful figure.

Buy or hire the TT3017 if...
A mid-size powered tipper used by groundworkers, agricultural contractors and self-builders moving muck, aggregate and spoil. The electric tipping ram is what you are paying for over a hand-winch tipper, and on a trailer used weekly it earns that back quickly.
