Hi I am buying a new trailer and wondered if anyone could recommend a goo d place to go in Melb on Friday this week when I am down there, There is a place in Moorabbin somewhere but I have no idea which or where to go. Would like to drive in and tow out.

Want a 7'x5' single axle heavy duty, 750kg or 1000kg unit, box trailer, front and rear tailgate opening, longer drawbar if possible making them easier to back. And a jockey wheel also.

Anyone recommend a good place?

Thanx

I have had some experience with a crowd called Australian Trailers @ 12-14 Japaddy St Mordialloc ph 03 9580 6558. Web www.australiantrailers.com.au. I cant help with pricing etc but I have seen the quality of their product and it is as good as any. They used to build for Dingo CT until there was some sort of fall out I believe. I owned one of these for about 6 years. Couldn't break it with a sledge hammer.
Good luck.

Bonz, I would think if you wanted a longer draw bar than normal,that you would have to do some planning before lobbing on the door step, just my thoughts. Good luck.

Aussie Trailers in Moorabin, I think it is called?

sunshine trailers do some good custom jobs at a good price, not far off the western highway or ring road.
