Riba TRIP – lightweight trailers: the range with unladen weight 860 to 1,250 kg, gross weight 3,500 to 7,000 kg, length 8,250 to 10,850 mm and width 2,400 to 2,520 mm
The TRIP range gathers the trailers of the manufacturer Riba in the register. The type designations TRIP 3500, TRIP 3500 A and TRIP 7000 refer to each model's gross vehicle weight in kilograms, a marking convention common among trailer makers. Under this scheme the range sits within vehicle class O3.

The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 860 to 1,250 kg, gross weights from 3,500 to 7,000 kg, lengths from 8,250 to 10,850 mm and widths from 2,400 to 2,520 mm.
The ratio of low unladen weight to comparatively great length and high payload reserve is typical of light, mostly single- or tandem-axle trailers built for carrying bulky but not extremely heavy goods, for example in landscaping, trades work, exhibition transport or small-scale haulage, where a large load area combined with a moderate towed weight allows operation behind smaller tow vehicles.
When buying used, check the condition of the chassis and load floor, the operation of the overrun brake, the condition of the axles, wheel bearings and tyres, and the tightness of the tarpaulin or side boards. On the longer versions it is also worth checking for chassis twist caused by overloading, as well as corrosion on the mudguards, drawbar and lighting system, and confirming the roadworthiness inspection is current.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
