10×6 Trailer for Sale | Extra Width for Heavy-Duty Transport

What Is a 10×6 Trailer?

A 10×6 trailer is a large, wide-deck trailer designed for transporting bulky, heavy, or wide equipment that will not comfortably fit on narrower platforms. It provides a full 6-foot (approximately 1829 mm) internal width making it ideal for wide machinery, furniture, livestock, and commercial loads where stability and load clearance are critical.

A 10×6 trailer is commonly selected for commercial and trade use across Melbourne and Victoria. At Roshar Trailers, this size is typically chosen by customers who transport machinery, furniture, or livestock and require improved stability compared with smaller platforms such as 8×5 trailers or 7×5 trailers.

What Is a 10×6 Trailer Designed For?

A trailer 10×6 is designed for users who need additional deck width to safely carry wide or heavy loads. Common applications include machinery transport, landscaping equipment, furniture removal, and agricultural use.

If storage space or towing capacity is limited, some buyers compare this size with 10×5 trailers for a slightly narrower footprint, or step down to 8×5 trailers for more compact heavy-duty use.

Why Choose a 10×6 Trailer?
