What is a tilt tray?
A tilt tray is a flatbed truck with a hydraulic platform that tilts down to ground level, allowing vehicles or equipment to be loaded directly onto it. This makes loading safer and easier compared to traditional towing methods, especially for damaged or low-clearance vehicles.
Do I need special preparation before my load is collected?
It's helpful to ensure the load is accessible, with clear space for the tilt tray to manoeuvre and lower its platform. For vehicles, having keys available and ensuring they're in neutral (where possible) can also help speed up the loading process.
Is tilt tray transport safer than traditional towing?
Yes, tilt trays carry the entire vehicle or load on a flat platform, reducing wear, stress, and risk of damage during transport. This makes them a preferred option for accident-damaged vehicles, all-wheel-drive cars and equipment that shouldn't be dragged or towed conventionally.
