What is a box trailer?
Box trailers are a builders or handyperson’s best friend. Coates box trailers are utility trailer / hauler trailers that are purpose-designed for tough love, allowing you to negotiate difficult roads for accessing remote building sites.
What is the weight of a box trailer?
A box trailer is relatively light, and will come with its own capacity (payload) limit. The overall capacity, also called aggregate trailer mass (ATM), combines the box trailer weight and maximum safe payload. Match the box trailer with your vehicle’s towing capacity.
How much does it cost to hire a box trailer?
Our enclosed trailers are available at prices our competitors can’t match. At around $40 for four hours ($60 with trailer cage), these trailers are in demand, providing the performance and profitability Australian workers expect.

At Coates, we understand you want fast access to local hire equipment. We have 150 hire branches located Australia-wide for your convenience, so there is bound to be a branch near you. You can also reserve equipment online so it is ready for you exactly when you need it.
How to tow a box trailer?
A hauler trailer for enclosed cargo is easy to tow, although reversing your trailer in narrow spaces will provide a challenge for the inexperienced. As far as possible, you should try to provide even and centred weight distribution, and use covers and tie-downs over anything that may fly off the trailer in high winds at speed.
