Pay someone with a truck- you'll have a chaser bin for them in any event.

I could understand why the odd farm or large estate had a chaser bin, but never understood how they would fit with anything else. Last summer taught me different and I can see how they could be a LOT cheaper and easier than some of the alternatives.

we do use trucks on longer hauls and farms that can accommodate them - they don’t work in every situation however
 
Been very impressed with our new NC trailer. It holds 16t of wheat and came as high speed,
560x60x22.5
Commercial axles with 420x180 brakes.
Air/hyd brakes,load sensing on air.
Hyd Rear door with seal and grain shoot.
Sprung draw bar.
Roll over sheet.
Dual led lights on rear high and low.
Rear led flasher
Full front window Perspex.
Galvanised side access ladder.
Bolt on mud guards and mud flaps.
Hardox body so it doubles up as a dump trailer as well if used sensibly.
£18,500 + vat.

The rollover sheet needs better fixings as it can wobble loose when unrolled on rough ground but other than that it’s a very well made trailer.

when was that priced Lee ? seems exceptional value vs any brand I have had a quote for recently, who is the dealer for them or do they sell direct ?

think steel and component price rises are filtering through fast and prices are rising very quickly
