This collection page gathers the Woodford Trailers models the register could not assign to a named series. The range spans the light flatbed trailers of the FBT series, the box trailers of the LWT series, the multi-step numbered RL, RL2, RL3, RL5, RL6 and RL7 types, and the WBT models; listed separately is the Race Shuttle, a car transporter trailer. The digits following the letter codes distinguish individual variants within a series.

The register lists 37 versions with an unladen weight from 320 to 1,500 kg and a gross weight from 1,300 to 3,500 kg. Lengths range from 3.64 to 8.14 m, widths from 2.08 to 2.55 m.

These figures place the page firmly in the classic segment of trailers up to 3.5 t, from compact utility trailers to long transporters for race and sports cars. Such trailers serve private owners, trade businesses and motorsport teams alike.

When buying used, check the overrun brake coupling and brake linings, corrosion on the frame and loading-bed edges, and tyre condition and tread depth. On box versions, roof and door sealing also matter; on open platforms, the state of the floor covering does. Wiring and lights should be tested before the first journey; spare parts for axles and couplings are available from trailer specialists. Wheel bearings and hub seals should also be inspected on the heavier RL-series models.

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.
