Why this caged trailer earns its keep
Galvanised steel is the reason Apache open trailers last. Paint chips and lets rust in; a hot-dipped zinc coating protects the steel inside and out. Add a solid steel floor and heavy-duty suspension and you have a trailer that copes with tip runs, building materials and agricultural use for years.
The layout of sides, cage, ramp or tailgate decides what it’s best at. Cages add height for light, bulky loads such as hedge cuttings, ramps suit anything on wheels, and drop panels make it quick to rake out loose loads.
Typical jobs
- Tip runs and garden clearance
- Building materials and DIY projects
- Moving mowers, garden machinery and small plant
- Farm, stable and smallholding work

Getting the most from it
Spread heavy loads evenly and keep the weight slightly forward of the axle. A fitted cover keeps loads dry and stops waste blowing out. Check your car’s towing limit before loading up, and see the GOV.UK guide to towing with a car for licence rules.
