TowFast Brisbane can help with trailer towing and trailer transport for suitable box trailers, trade trailers, car trailers, plant trailers and equipment trailers across Brisbane and South East Queensland. The correct transport method depends on the trailer itself, whether it is loaded and whether it is roadworthy enough to be towed normally.
Guide only for suitable local trailer jobs. Loaded weight, dimensions, trailer condition, access, distance and urgency affect the final quote. Larger, damaged or loaded trailers may cost more.
Trailer types we can assess
- Box trailers and cage trailers.
- Trade and tool trailers.
- Car trailers.
- Plant and equipment trailers.
- Small enclosed trailers.
- Selected camper or specialty trailers.
- Boat and jet ski trailers — see our boat towing and jet ski towing pages.
Broken, unregistered and non-roadworthy trailer transport
A trailer with a failed bearing, damaged tyre, wheel problem, coupling issue or registration problem should not simply be treated like a normal road tow. Depending on condition and size, tilt-tray transport may be a safer option.
Send photos of the full trailer, wheels, coupling and any damage. If it is loaded, tell us exactly what is on it and provide the approximate loaded weight if known.
Plant, car and equipment trailer transport
Loaded trailers can be much heavier than they appear. A plant trailer carrying a mini excavator or skid steer is a different job from an empty box trailer. Total dimensions and mass need to be confirmed before dispatch.
If the trailer is carrying machinery, see our machinery towing and equipment transport service as well. In some cases it may be more appropriate to transport the equipment separately from the trailer.
What we need before quoting
- Pickup and drop-off addresses.
- Trailer type and approximate length/width.
- Whether the trailer is empty or loaded.
- ATM/GTM or approximate loaded weight if known.
- Registration and roadworthy status.
- Tyre, wheel and bearing condition.
- Coupling, jockey wheel and brake condition if known.
- Whether the trailer rolls freely.
- Pickup and delivery access.
- Flexible, scheduled or ASAP timing.
- Photos for damaged, loaded or unusual trailers.

Trailer towing pricing in Brisbane
Trailer pricing depends on much more than kilometres. Size, loaded weight, condition, access, loading method, waiting time and urgency can change the job. A suitable simple local trailer move can start from around $220 including GST, while larger or difficult jobs are quoted individually.
See the TowFast Brisbane pricing guide for specialist starting prices.
Boat, jet ski and caravan transport
Marine and caravan trailers have their own considerations. For a boat, jet ski or caravan, use the dedicated boat towing, jet ski towing or caravan transport pages so you know what information to send.
