Custom-built Gooseneck Tandem Axle Trailer for Coastal Vegetation Management in WA

Coastal Vegetation Management, based in Mandurah, Western Australia, has added a robust new gooseneck tandem axle trailer on 17.5” K-Hitch spring suspension to their fleet — custom-built by Ultimate Plant Trailers to meet the demands of their specialised vegetation and land management services.

This 7-metre deck trailer, finished in a striking Ford Conquer Grey PPG paint, combines purpose-built engineering with rugged durability, ensuring safe and efficient transport of the heavy machinery used in vegetation control, fire mitigation, and coastal asset protection. The 1-metre beavertail enhances loading ease, while the low deck height and gooseneck design improve weight distribution and towing stability — especially important when operating across varied terrain.

Built for serious work

This trailer is engineered for field performance. With dual hydraulic front legs for effortless decoupling, hydraulic ramps for safer machinery loading, and a Mini Max Hitch for strong and secure towing, it supports Coastal Vegetation Management's fast-paced, equipment-intensive operations.

Why a gooseneck trailer is the perfect fit

For a business like Coastal Vegetation Management, which services coastal bushland, reserves, and private properties, the gooseneck trailer offers real-world advantages:

• Greater towing stability: The over-axle connection improves weight distribution, perfect for moving heavy equipment like forestry mulchers and loaders over soft or sloped ground.
• Better maneuverability: Essential for accessing tight bush tracks and narrow coastal corridors.
• Lower deck height: Combined with the beavertail and hydraulic ramps, this means faster, safer loading of high-centre-of-gravity machinery.
• Built tough: The spring suspension and steel construction handle WA’s demanding terrain — from beachside scrub to rocky firebreaks.

This trailer is more than transport—it’s a field-ready support unit that ensures Coastal Vegetation Management can operate effectively, safely, and professionally on every job.
