| Sumario: | The two-wheel tractor-operated tipper trailer is used for transporting small and large or heavy items over short or long distances. It has a bed resting on an axle with two rubber wheels. The deck is covered on the sides with hinged side drops, hence forming a container in which goods can be carried safely and securely. It is attached to a two-wheel tractor via its hitching point. There is a seat on the trainer for the operator to control the tractor and drive the trailer comfortably. This trailer is a source of year-round income through hiring out services. It helps communities reduce their transport cost and time, improve the timely marketing/transportation of their goods, and sell directly to the market for a higher price. |
