Need to move things from A to B? There’s a trailer for that! You’re unlikely to need a trailer every weekend, so hiring one when your job calls for it makes more sense than owning one. Hirepool have a wide range of trailers available for every kind of towing job, large or small, saving you the hassle and expense of storage, maintenance and running costs, not to mention the initial cost of buying one.
In this blog, we’ll cover 5 common jobs that are much easier to achieve in a weekend with a hire trailer. Before we get into the nitty-gritty, there are a couple of important things to consider when choosing a trailer to hire.
Making sure you have the right vehicle for your hire trailer is vital to ensure you are both towing your load safely and meeting the NZTA requirements.
Before you hire a trailer, you should ensure you have done the following:
It’s also important to know NZTA’s official rules for driving a light vehicle with a trailer:
If you’re unsure about any of the above, your local Hirepool expert will be able to assist you and work out your load limit. You can also check out NZTA’s Guide to Safe Towing and Loading for more detailed information.
Hirepool has a great range of trailers to suit almost any towing job, large or small. Our range includes:

Ready to tackle some towing jobs? Here are 5 jobs you can do with the help of a hire trailer this weekend.
Moving house? Upgraded your couch (finally!) and need to remove your old one? Moving furniture is one of the most common reasons for hiring a trailer. The best trailer for this job is typically a cage or high-sided trailer, or a specialist furniture trailer, depending on the size and shape of what you need to move.
If you are moving larger pieces of furniture or lots of boxes, a high sided trailer allows you to place items inside securely. You’ll often have to strap items in but if you don’t have too many large items to move or very far to travel, a cage or high-side trailer is a great choice. If there are a few loose items, consider using a tarpaulin to help keep the load contained while in transit.
Wet weather forecast for your moving day? Consider a covered furniture trailer for transporting furniture and boxes. Single axle trailers are best for lighter loads and will keep your precious cargo and belongings from exposure to the elements.
A covered trailer can also save you some time on moving day that you’d spend securing everything down with ties. It’s also a better option for keeping all your gear safe if you’re transporting items over a long distance.
One thing to consider when you’re renting a trailer for furniture moving purposes is hiring trolleys or load skates too. These can help you easily manoeuvre heavy items and could save you from a moving day injury. If you’re unsure what trailer is right for your moving job, call into your local Hirepool branch and chat to the knowledgeable team. They’ll be able to help size up the best trailer for your job and vehicle, as well as sort out any trailer accessories you might need to get the job done the smart way.
If you’re planning on spending the weekend clearing up the overgrown jungle in your backyard, you’ll need a few tools to get the job done and a plan for how you’ll dispose of your green waste. Greenwaste can be bulky, dirty and hard to dispose of without a trailer. Instead of wrestling unruly branches into your backseat and making a handful of trips to your local tip, hire a trailer, load it up and dispose of it in one go.
The best kind of trailer for clearing garden prunings is a high side trailer. The higher sides will keep your loose materials contained and allow you to pile it up nice and high without the worry that your pile of green waste will spill out as you drive.
At Hirepool, we have a range of caged and high side trailers, from small and medium-sized single axle caged trailers that can take loads ranging from 465kgs, up to 1140kgs. We also have larger tandem axle high side trailers that can take loads between 1550 – 1950 kg and are stabilised with a second axle for safer towing at higher speeds. Most of our tandem axle trailers are also equipped with brakes for added safety when towing heavy loads.
Hirepool is a one-stop-shop for all your hire gear. Why not hire all the landscaping equipment you need to do your gardening jobs the smart way and transport it all to your home or job site easily with our trailers? Hire hedge trimmers, pruning saws, post hole borers and more at Hirepool.
Working on a home renovation project? Building materials can be bulky and expensive to have delivered. You may be looking to pick up large items such as plasterboard or lengths of timber which may not fit in your vehicle.
Heavier materials such as builders mix, cement, sand, tile or pallets of blocks may not be suitable for simply driving home with them in the boot and may put undue strain on your vehicle. If you have to make multiple stops to collect materials for your DIY project, it might be worth hiring a trailer to more easily collect all the gear you need.
A standard or low side trailer is well suited to transporting building materials. These come in a variety of sizes and load capacities, as well as single axle or tandem axle models, so the right trailer for your job will depend on the size and weight of the load you’ll be carrying. For loading large, flat items like gib or plasterboard, a Flatdeck Tandem Axle trailer may be the better option and are available with or without sides. Your local Hirepool expert will be able to advise you on the best trailer for your needs if you’re unsure.
Working on a home renovation project can generate a lot of rubbish and debris in the process. Renovation waste may be bulky or dusty, sometimes even mouldy, or sharp and dangerous - not exactly the kind of things you want to put in the boot of your car!
When you want to get rid of materials such as broken plasterboard, old flooring, broken cement or other renovation waste, a trailer is going to be your best friend.
The right trailer for this job will depend on the size and weight of your load. There are a couple of key things to think about when hiring a trailer to dispose of renovation waste or household rubbish.
Hiring gear for a project at home? Hire a trailer to easily transport the gear to your property or job site. Sure, there are a handful of tools that you can probably fit in your car, but if you’re a couple of larger bits of equipment, Hirepool has the gear and the trailer to transport it to save any potential damage to your car.
Simply book online or call into your local branch to select the items you need and drive them straight to your job site where you are ready to work.
If you are hiring specialist equipment, there may be a specialist trailer for this or even towable options. Hirepool have a wide range of specialist trailers such as chiller trailers, portaloo trailers, excavator trailers, fuel tanker trailers and more.
Hirepool has your towing needs sorted with their huge range of trailers. Best of all, Hirepool trailers are fully checked and serviced between hires to ensure they are always safe, clean and roadworthy, something your local service station may not be doing between uses. Get the right trailer for your next project at competitive and affordable rates at Hirepool, simply call into your local branch or book online today and get towing.
