About This Finance

Car Carrier Trailer

Car carrier trailers move vehicles for dealers, auction houses, rental fleets and private customers. They range from single-deck trailers carrying a few cars to multi-level carriers behind a prime mover, and enclosed carriers for prestige and classic vehicles.

Lenders treat larger car carriers as specialised transport equipment, so they look closely at the work behind the purchase: contracts with dealers or auction groups, or a history of regular jobs. Hydraulic decks and ramps add value but also maintenance cost, so lenders may ask about servicing on used units. New transport businesses can get approved, usually with relevant industry experience.

Tip: if you're bidding on transport contracts, get pre-approved first. Being able to show you can put the equipment on the road quickly can help you win the work.
