Some time ago I wrote about log trailers. As you may remember, this was something completely new to me. Now, when I have had the chance to look deeper into this, I have discovered that there are many log trailers on the market. If you ask me, it´s a jungle. Who can sort that out? Well, we took on the challenge.
Listing of Log Trailers
There are probably lists of log trailers all over the Internet. But to find one that suits us (NordicWoodJournal.com and Skogsforum.se) was difficult. So, we made our own. We have tried to not have too much details in it, but enough details to give a fair view of the manufacturers, and a good overview.
For those who want to dig deeper, we have added links to the manufacturer’s homepages, most of them in English. You can also find basic information about different types: trailers för ATV or tractor. Also some information about the different manufacturers size range (load capacity in metric tons) and if they offer different capacities as frame steering, driving and/or brakes.
Here’s also a video from where we tried four different log trailers from Moheda and Kesla. It’s in Swedish but has subtitles in English:
It’s most likely that there are more manufacturers to find than those we have listed here. If you know more brands and manufacturers, don’t hesitate to send me an email and we will update the list. It’s also possible to register your own account here at nordicwoodjournal.com and start discussions about log trailers or other interesting topics. Here’s the link to create your member account.
