LOW LOADER AND EXTENDABLE TRAILERS FOR HIRE
At Ashcroft Trailer Hire, we have a wide range of extendable and low loader trailers available for hire in Newtownabbey and all of the surrounding areas. We also offer waste trailer hire and trailer repairs.
EXTENDABLE/TROMBONE TRAILER HIRE
Trombone trailers are becoming more and more familiar on our roads. We have trombone trailers available for hire for those extra long self supporting loads.
Standard extendable or trombone trailers stretch to accommodate indivisible loads such as crane or bridge beams up to 20.1m in length.
EXTENDABLE REAR STEER FLAT TRAILER HIRE
The extendable rear steer flat trailer does the same job as an extendable flat trailer. However the self steer rear axles help with manoeuvrability both on and off site which can improve access in towns or industrial areas.
​
For more information or to hire one of our extendable rear steer flat trailers, get in touch today.
EXTENDABLE DROP FRAME/STEP FRAME FLAT TRAILER HIRE
Extendable drop/step frame is a name for an extendable trailer with a main deck which is lower than the height of the tractor unit’s fifth wheel height.
The kingpin of the trailer is attached to the underside of the step frame trailer’s upper deck, enabling the trailer to be coupled to the lorry unit’s fifth wheel.
The upper deck is built sufficiently high to accommodate the lorry. The lower deck of the step frame trailer is built at a lower level than the upper deck, enabling high loads to be moved without the total height of the loaded trailer exceeding the legal limits for normal road transport.
LOW LOADER HIRE
Low loaders are trailers with bodies close to the ground. These trailers are mainly used to transport heavy loads such as construction equipment, turbines, railway parts and power infrastructure, although they are capable of moving any type of large equipment.
​
We have various low loader specifications available.
