A
trailer is an unpowered vehicle towed by a powered vehicle and is commonly used
for transport of materials and goods. Some trailers are utilised for personal
purposes which can be powered by any vehicle having a good hitch but other
trailers form part of large trucks called as semi-trailer trucks for the
transport of cargo material. Trailers
usually have many good benefits:
The
main advantage of hiring or purchasing a trailer is that trailer can be moved
at will wherever required. The vehicles can be moved anytime in the day or
night at a time which is suitable. Some of the trailers can be used for more
than a single purpose and can be used to transport things like firewood, garden
supplies and furniture. Sometimes trailers can be used as a tilt enabling easy
loading of vehicles. Trailers are especially more useful for transporting
material or goods over longer distances.
A
trailer jack is a machine which has been designed to lift the trailer to a
height which allows the trailer to be hitched or unhitched to and from the
towing vehicle. Trailer jacks are also used for levelling of the trailer during
storage. The most common types of trailers are A-frame jacks, swivel jacks and
drop-leg jacks. Some of the trailers like horse trailers have a built in jack
for this reason.
Thus
trailers are useful equipments which can be used to transport material and
goods over large distances safely and securely.
