Your mini excavator needs to get to the next job, and your aggregate needs moving from the yard to the site. Coppard supplies plant, tipping and flatbed trailers from our Southwick depot — hire the trailer with the machine and move everything yourself. Serving contractors across Brighton, Hove and West Sussex. If you are searching for trailer hire near me in Brighton, call 01273 596 979.
What Trailer Do You Need?
Plant trailers move excavators, dumpers and rollers between sites. Tipping trailers haul aggregate, topsoil and spoil. Flatbed trailers carry materials, fencing, steel and anything that loads from the side.
The right trailer depends on your payload and your towing vehicle. Plant trailers come with ramps and tie-down points. Tipping trailers hydraulically tip the load — faster and safer than shovelling by hand. Tell us what you are moving and the weight when you call 01273 596 979.
Trailer Hire Range
Contractors across Brighton, Hove and Worthing hire trailers to move mini excavators, dumpers and compaction plant between jobs. Landscapers moving materials to domestic sites use tipping trailers — faster than loading by hand and cleaner than leaving aggregate loose in a van. For larger plant moves across Lewes, Burgess Hill and Chichester, twin-axle plant trailers handle machines up to 3.5T. The best trailer for your job depends on what you are carrying and what you are towing with.
The Southwick depot stocks plant trailers for machines up to 3.5T, tipping trailers for bulk materials and flatbed trailers for general loads. Twin-axle options handle heavier payloads.
All trailers come with lights, brakes and appropriate couplings. If you need a specific hitch type, mention it when you call.
Full specifications for the complete trailer range are listed in the Coppard online catalogue.

What to Expect
For contractors moving plant between multiple sites across Brighton and West Sussex, a trailer on weekly hire avoids the cost of owning and maintaining a dedicated unit. If you are self-collecting hired equipment from the Southwick depot, the trailer and the plant go out together — one trip, one account.
The yard team confirms your coupling type, walks through the lights and brakes, and checks your towing vehicle is suitable. Trailers are maintained between hires and inspected before every collection. Call 01273 596 979.
If you are hiring plant from Coppard and moving it between sites yourself, hire the trailer at the same time. We check compatibility between the machine and the trailer before you leave the yard. For regular users across Brighton and West Sussex, longer-term hire avoids repeated bookings.
