Large Open Load Area for Regular Work

The 12×6 platform offers additional room for long, bulky or mixed loads that may be difficult to arrange in a smaller trailer.

Its open-top configuration provides direct access when loading by hand, forklift or suitable site equipment. The fixed side panels help contain general cargo, while the external tie rails provide accessible points for correctly securing loads.

Typical applications include:

• building materials and trade supplies
• landscaping equipment and garden materials
• tools and worksite equipment
• property maintenance loads
• farm and rural supplies
• bulky household items
• business deliveries and general cargo

The trailer’s usable payload will depend on its finished tare weight and selected GVM. Customers should confirm the final payload and towing requirements before ordering.

12×6 Tandem Trailer Compared with Other Configurations

Choosing the correct body style depends on the type of cargo and how it needs to be loaded, secured and unloaded.

Open Tandem Trailer

Choose this model for general tools, materials, equipment and mixed cargo where open access and a large floor area are the priorities.

Tandem Cage Trailer

A cage configuration provides additional height and containment for green waste, furniture and bulky loose materials.

Hydraulic Tipper Trailer

A hydraulic tipper is more appropriate when mechanical unloading of soil, gravel, mulch, rubble or similar bulk material is required.

Compare the 12×6 Hydraulic Tipper Trailer.

Enclosed Trailer

An enclosed model provides greater protection from weather, dust and unauthorised access for tools, stock and sensitive equipment.

Heavy-Duty Construction

The trailer is built around a heavy-duty chassis and reinforced 100×50mm drawbar. Its 2.1mm chequer plate floor provides a durable working surface, while the double folded guards help protect the wheel areas during regular use.

Additional standard construction features include solid axles, A-type hubs, slipper suspension, a lockable coupling, LED lights, reflectors, mudflaps and twin ADR-approved safety chains.

These specifications make the trailer suitable for customers seeking a practical open trailer rather than a specialised cage, enclosed or tipping configuration.

Choosing the Correct GVM

The correct GVM should be selected according to:

• the weight and type of cargo
• the finished tare weight of the trailer
• required payload
• towing vehicle capacity
• towbar and coupling ratings
• intended towing frequency

The towing vehicle must be suitable for the trailer’s selected rating and intended loaded weight. Final towing compatibility should be confirmed before placing an order. Roshar’s published terms also place responsibility on the owner to ensure the towing vehicle, towbar, electrical connection and load restraint arrangements are suitable.

Made Locally by Roshar Trailers

Roshar Trailers states that its newly manufactured trailers are made locally at its Braeside factory by an Australian-owned business. The current product information also lists a 12-month structural warranty, subject to the published warranty terms and exclusions.

Customers should check the final quotation carefully to confirm the agreed dimensions, GVM, components and build specifications before paying a deposit.

A 12×6 tandem trailer is suited to buyers who need greater floor space without moving to a specialised enclosed, cage or hydraulic tipping body.

More Usable Floor Space

The extended platform allows tools, supplies and equipment to be arranged more efficiently, particularly when transporting longer items or several different materials in one trip.

Open Access

The open body provides practical access from above and through the rear, making it suitable for general freight and materials that do not require enclosed storage.

Tandem Axle Support

The tandem configuration distributes the trailer and load across two axles when loaded correctly. This makes it suitable for larger trailer builds and regular trade or commercial applications.

Multiple GVM Configurations

The model is offered from 2000kg to 4500kg GVM, allowing the final build to be selected around the intended load and compatible towing vehicle.
