What Is a Box Trailer?

A box trailer is a versatile open-top trailer with enclosed sides, designed to carry loose materials, tools, equipment, furniture and general cargo. It is one of the most practical trailer types for home users, tradies, landscapers and commercial buyers.

Box trailers are commonly used for:

• household transport
• garden waste and landscaping
• tools and trade equipment
• furniture and moving
• construction materials
• farm and rural work
• business deliveries and general hauling

For extra load containment, view our Cage Trailers range.

Box Trailer Sizes and Load Capacity

Common box trailer sizes start from 6×4 trailers with 750kg GVM and extend up to 10×6 trailers with 3500kg GVM, depending on the model, build type and configuration.

For heavier-duty use, tandem axle box trailer configurations can support higher load requirements, with selected models available up to 4500kg GVM. This makes them suitable for carrying tools, equipment, building materials, garden waste, machinery and general cargo across Melbourne and Victoria.

Zinc Primer Protection

Roshar box trailers are designed for everyday Australian conditions. Zinc primer protection helps improve corrosion resistance and supports longer-term durability, especially for trailers exposed to outdoor use, moisture and regular worksite conditions.
