Workhorse Tipping Trailers

The Richardson WORKHORSE range of tipping trailers offer maximum adaptability: in buying a WORKHORSE Tipper, you are in fact getting three trailers for the price of one! Remove the sides, and you have a flat bed, fitted with rope hooks for the safe transport of static loads; replace the sides, and you have a rear, or revolutionary three-way tipper for the effortless delivery of loose and bulky goods just where you want them; attach the optional ramps, and you have a stable and smooth towing trailer for the transport of plant and machinery.

The Richardson WORKHORSE range of tipping trailers offers two bed sizes, 8’ x 5’, and 10’ x 6’, and maximum gross weights between 2000kg and 3500kg. Coupled with the optional mesh extension sides, these two body sizes can carry nearly 6 cu. yds and nearly 9 cu. yds of loose material respectively.

The three-way tipping capability is achieved by the ingenious use of ball and socket joints and pins, holding body to chassis, with the configuration of the holding pins determining the direction of tip. With a WORKHORSE Tipper, you can tip how much you want, how you want, exactly where you want.

Repairs and Services

Just as with your towing vehicle, it is best practise to keep your trailer regularly maintained, with a thorough service recommended at least once a year. If you want to keep your trailer in a safe and legal condition, we have a team of experienced engineers at your disposal. Please ring the office on 01904 470282 to book an appointment.

In the unfortunate event of an accident, we can get your trailer back on the road, and you back to work quicker than you can say, "Time is money!". If your trailer is involved in an accident, we can offer a collection and delivery service to the factory, where a damage report can be quickly compiled and the cost of repair estimated. In some cases, we can even supply you with a trailer from our hire fleet to keep you going whilst yours is off the road. Our staff have many years experience dealing with all aspects of repair work, including the preparation of insurance claims and liaising with insurance companies, leaving you to get on with what you do best: earning money. We are only a phone call away.

Spare Parts

Handy with a spanner? If you are an experienced mechanic, or just need a small part to get you back up and running, we can supply you with a multitude of spares, for most trailer models dating back many years, many available ex-stock and shippable within 24 hours of order. Please call our spares dept. with your requirements.

Trailer Hire

We know that not everybody needs a trailer every day, so no matter whether you want a trailer for 24 hours, a weekend, a week or six months, we have a model and tariff to suit your requirements. The whole fleet is maintained regularly to guarantee safety and reliability, and novices to towing are given basic instruction and guidelines to help them on their way.

The hire fleet is also available on a "TRY B 4 U BUY" scheme, whereby, if you want to convince yourself that a certain model of trailer really is the one for you, then you can hire the trailer for a short spell, and if you proceed to buy, we will refund the hire charge; you can't say fairer than that! To take advantage of either of these offers, simply call the hire dept. on 01904 470282 to place your booking.

If you are looking for help to identify your trailer, then give our specialist sales team a call.
