FAQ – What You Need to Know Before You Hire a Trailer
I’ve never towed before. Can you show me what to do?
Absolutely. Most first-time hirers come to Dave because they want to learn how to do it right.
Dave personally walks you through:
- How to attach the trailer safely and check lights and chains
- How to balance and secure your load correctly
- When to use straps, tie-downs, or electric brakes
By the time you leave, you’ll know how to tow confidently, safely, and legally on Victorian roads.
What should I check before hiring a trailer?
Before booking, make sure you know:
- Your vehicle’s towing capacity (found in your owner’s manual)
- The weight of your load and whether electric brakes are required
- The type of trailer you need (car, tandem, cage, etc.)
If you’re unsure, Dave will confirm it for you before finalising the hire so there’s no guesswork or unsafe combinations.
What are the legal requirements for towing in Victoria?
Victorian road laws require that all trailers and towing vehicles meet specific safety standards.
- Loads over 750 kg (unbraked) or 2,000 kg (braked) need an electric brake controller fitted to the vehicle.
- Loads must be evenly balanced and securely restrained using rated straps or tie-downs.
- Safety chains and working tail-lights are mandatory.
Dave checks every trailer before it leaves the yard and makes sure your setup is compliant helping you avoid fines and stay safe.
Do I need to know my towing capacity before calling?
No, Dave can help you check it. Just tell us what car you’re driving and what you plan to tow.
Do you deliver trailers?
Yes! We offer local delivery and pickup across Werribee, Hoppers Crossing, Tarneit, Truganina, Point Cook, and nearby suburbs.
Can you help me load or strap my car safely?
