MUV-Trailer Mover

The MUV Trailer Mover was developed for moving boat trailers, tipper trailers, livestock trailers, general purpose trailers, horsebox trailers, plant trailers, box van trailers, motorsport trailers, and other such trailers that typically use a 50mm Ball Hitch or Towing Eye at the front.

The Multi-Utility Vehicle (MUV) consists of a core chassis & drive system that can be fitted with a modular range of attachments – showing here is the Trailer Mover module.

Configurable with either Ball Hitch or, Towing Eye, the MUV-Trailer Mover is designed to move trailers in locations where it is not realistic to use a larger car/truck and where petrol/diesel engined vehicles are not appropriate. It enables a single pedestrian operator to achieve what might otherwise require two or three people, thereby improving both productivity and reducing the risk of back injury.

Being significantly smaller than a forklift / tractor type vehicle and having no engine noise, exhaust emissions or, handlebar vibrations it is ideal for use both internally and externally. There is no requirement for an operator driver licence and the Trailer Mover can be easily moved between locations in the back of a van (loading simply requiring 3 standard ‘scaffold’ planks, a tail-lift or ramp).

The Nu-Star Trailer Mover is available for both sale, short and long-term hire.
