Our Range of Trailers for Earthmoving and Construction

There are several types of trailers that can be used for earthmoving and construction. Their size and durability allow them to transport heavy machinery and materials efficiently. However, each type suits specific equipment and materials and should be used correctly. Below are the FWR range of trailers for earthmoving equipment:

  • Low Loader Trailers: Ideal for transporting heavy, oversized equipment like bulldozers, excavators, and graders. Due to their low deck height, machinery is easily loaded and is still in compliance with height restrictions.
  • Beavertail Trailers: Feature a sloped rear for safe, low-angle loading of compact machinery such as skid steers, rollers, and mini-excavators.
  • Plant Trailers: Designed specifically to carry various construction machinery with heavy-duty frames and ramps for easy loading/unloading.
  • Tilt Trailers: Allow quick, ramp-free loading of machinery and vehicles, reducing loading times.
  • Side Tippers: Used for moving bulk materials like soil, gravel, and sand on construction sites with fast unloading capability.

Built Tough: Engineering for Australian Civil Works

At FWR our trailers are built to withstand the harsh conditions, heavy loads, and rigorous use of the demanding Australian civil works industry. When engineering trailers for civil contractors we focus on durability, using high-strength steel, reinforced frames, and corrosion-resistant coatings to combat extreme weather and rugged terrain. 

Our designs prioritise stability, load distribution, and are compliant with strict road regulations. Our focus is on heavy-duty suspensions, robust braking systems, and customisable configurations. FWR’s commitment to quality engineering guarantees equipment protection, operator safety, and operational efficiency, making our trailers an essential tool in the success of Australia’s challenging civil works environment.

Why Quality Trailers are Critical for Your Construction Fleet

Working in construction, you may be faced with issues that can affect your production and the trailer you use may be a factor. This is why quality matters when it comes to the trailers you choose. Durable trailers can cope with harsh site conditions, heavy loads, and constant use without needing frequent repairs, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. 

The use of high-quality materials and engineering guarantees secure transport of expensive machinery, minimising the risk of damage and costly delays. And with safety features like robust braking systems and secure tie-down points in place, both operators and equipment are protected during transit. Quality trailers are the key to a successful business. 

They increase productivity, and safeguard assets while supporting compliance with road regulations, ultimately avoiding fines and interruptions. 

100% AUSSIE MADE & MANUFACTURED

Buying a trailer from FWR means:

✔ exceptional quality because we use materials that are sourced from local Brisbane suppliers and have the latest manufacturing techniques and equipment with all stages of production quality checked to ensure high standards

✔ all products conform to Australian design rules and to quality and safety standards so that cargoes and personnel are kept as safe and secure as possible

✔ durability is a priority so each trailer is exceptionally long-lasting and provides excellent reliability and value for money. 

Trailer Types for Your Specific Earthmoving Equipment

Each piece of earthmoving equipment requires a specific trailer type. The trailer must be suited to the machinery’s size, weight, and loading requirements, ensuring safety and compliance.

  • Beavertail Trailer: An all-rounder used for transporting excavators, skid steers, compact loaders, backhoe loaders, rollers and compactors. Its low angled ramp makes loading and unloading simpler. 
  • Low Loader: Often used to haul excavators, bulldozers, dump trucks and articulated trucks as it can handle heavier oversized equipment. 
  • Plant Trailer: Moves backhoe loaders, rollers and compactors as reinforced decks provide secure and convenient loading.
  • Tilt Trailer: Commonly used to shift dump trucks and articulated trucks as it can accommodate their height and weight efficiently.

Custom Trailers for Your Unique Project Requirements

Customising your trailer means you’ll have a transport solution that perfectly matches the specific demands of your project. Your business has unique requirements which your trailer should be tailored towards. With custom trailers you can choose the required dimensions, axle configurations, load restraints, and even add features such as hydraulic ramps or wideners. 

Investing in a purpose built tailor-made trailer saves time and costs while delivering reliable performance and long-term value, making it the smartest choice for unique or complex hauling needs.
