TRAILER TRANSPORT

The kit has to be there before the crew is.

On a shoot or an event, a trailer that turns up late holds everyone up. Our pickup trucks tow production and event trailers between yards, bases and locations, so the power is on, the water is running and the welfare units are in place before call time.

We move generators, honeywagons, tipper trailers, water bowsers, towerlights and eco-pods for film and TV. We also tow for events and private clients, from campers heading off on holiday to plant for a building job.

Remote locations are part of the job. We’ve delivered a 20K generator to a coastal film base and taken silent power trailers deep into forest locations.

WHAT WE MOVE

FILM & TV MOVES

Swings, unit moves and base-to-location runs.

Film crews call it a swing: moving kit from one base or location to the next while the shoot carries on. We handle swings for generators, honeywagons, bowsers and towerlights, early mornings and late nights included.

Our pickups work in pairs when a job needs it (we call them yin and yang), so two trailers can move at once and the unit isn’t split across the day.

  • Early and late swings
  • Two-pickup moves
  • Delivered and positioned on site

EVENTS & PRIVATE MOVES

Not just film trailers.

Outside of production work we tow for event organisers, caterers, builders and private clients. That means generators and power units for festivals and outdoor events, plant to building sites, and campers delivered for a peaceful holiday.

Tell us what the trailer is, roughly what it weighs, where it’s coming from and where it needs to be, and we’ll confirm whether we can move it and when.

  • Events and festivals
  • Building and plant moves
  • Private campers and leisure trailers
