Frequently Asked Questions about our 8x5 Enclosed Tandem-Axle Trailer Hire

Is the 8x5 enclosed tandem trailer completely waterproof?
+ -

Yes! Our 8x5 enclosed trailer is fully weather-sealed and lockable, designed to keep your furniture, electronics, or commercial stock 100% dry and protected from Melbourne’s unpredictable weather.

Can I use this trailer to move a whole house?
+ -

Absolutely. It is essentially a commercial moving van on wheels. With a massive 8x5 foot floorspace (240 x 150cm) and high 6 foot internal clearance (180cm), it’s the ultimate choice for 2-3 bedroom house moves, office relocations, or transporting valuable equipment securely. However if you think you need more height, check out our 8x5 single-axle caged trailer.

What vehicle requirements are there to tow the 8x5 enclosed trailer?
+ -

Because of its size and payload potential, you will need a capable SUV, 4WD, or Ute with a braked towing capacity rating that matches your total load. Please ensure your vehicle features a standard 50mm tow ball.

How do I stop my furniture from sliding around inside the enclosed trailer?
+ -

The interior features professional-grade tie-down rails along the walls and floor. We highly recommend bringing moving blankets (to prevent scratches) and plenty of ratchet straps to tie your items securely to the internal tracking system.

Does this trailer have a ramp door or barn doors at the back?
+ -

Our 8x5 enclosed trailer features twin barn doors, allowing you to back right up to a loading dock or garage door in tight spaces.
