1500L – 3 Bin Trailer

A tough, proven 3-bin trailer built for orchard efficiency. With market-leading Soft-Ride suspension, effortless single-lever operation, and capacity to move up to 250 bins a day, it protects your fruit while saving time, fuel, and passes. A true workhorse for New Zealand growers.

The Transtak 1500L is built tough for serious orchard work, carrying three bins (1,500 kg) and shifting up to 250 bins a day. With Transtak’s Soft-Ride Hydra-Pneumatic Suspension, it delivers market leading ride quality, protecting fruit from bumps and jolts on rough tracks and headlands.

Simple, reliable, and quick to use, single-lever operation makes loading and unloading effortless, while the heavy-duty RHS frame and pressed steel forks guarantee season-after-season durability.

Widely used across New Zealand horticulture — especially in kiwifruit — the 1500L is a proven workhorse for moving bins efficiently from orchard to packhouse.

It also works seamlessly with the Transtak 3500 Stacking Trailer, feeding bins from rows to headlands for six-bin collection. Together, they keep fruit flowing smoothly, reduce tractor passes, and cut fuel use, giving you a smarter, more efficient harvest.
