Moving plant, materials or a load that will not fit in the van? The right trailer turns a three-trip job into one. If you are looking for trailer hire near me in Surrey, our Godstone depot stocks plant, flatbed and box trailers. Call 01883 743 322.
Trailer Options at Godstone
Plant trailers are low-bed designs with ramps for transporting mini excavators, dumpers, rollers and plate compactors. Flatbed trailers carry building materials, steel, scaffolding and timber. Box trailers — enclosed with a lockable door — keep tools and equipment dry and secure during transit.
All trailers are road-legal, maintained and supplied with lighting and coupling equipment. Call 01883 743 322 with your load type and towing vehicle and we will confirm the right trailer.
Matching Trailer to Vehicle and Load
Trailer selection is about the combination of load, trailer and towing vehicle within legal limits. Your vehicle’s rated towing capacity is the governing limit. If hiring plant from us and need transport, tell us the machine and we will confirm the correct trailer. We check coupling compatibility at handover.

Frequently Asked Questions — Trailer Hire
Can I tow a plant trailer on a standard car licence?
It depends on when you passed your test. Licences before January 1997 generally include heavier towing. After that date, towing is restricted unless you have B+E or your combined weight stays under 3,500kg. Check your entitlement before booking.
What is my vehicle's towing capacity?
Check your vehicle handbook under towing specifications. Common 4×4 and pickup figures are 2,500 to 3,500kg. For cars, typically 1,200 to 1,800kg. Tell us your vehicle when you call and we can help confirm a suitable trailer.
Do I need insurance to tow a hired trailer?
Your motor insurance may or may not cover hired trailers — policies vary. Check with your insurer before collecting. Coppard’s hire does not include load insurance.
Can my vehicle safely tow a plant trailer?
That depends on the towing capacity of your vehicle, the trailer’s maximum authorised mass and the combined weight once the machinery is loaded. The trailer must also be correctly coupled, within its permitted limits and fitted with working brakes where required. GOV.UK explains how to check trailer weights, towing limits and equipment requirements. Tell Coppard’s Godstone team which machine you need to transport and what vehicle you plan to use, and they can help identify a suitable trailer, although the driver remains responsible for confirming that the vehicle, licence and loaded combination are legal and safe.
Can I hire a trailer alongside plant from the same account?
Yes. One account, one invoice. This is how most of our trade customers operate — hire the machine and the trailer together. Call 01883 743 322.
