1500LE – 3-4 Bin Trailer

The 1500LE is a versatile 3–4 bin trailer with a 2000 kg load rating. Carry 3 bins in tight headlands or boost capacity by 33% with extension forks to move 4 bins per trip. Built tough with Soft-Ride suspension, it’s designed to help growers deliver fast, efficient harvests.

The Transtak 1500LE gives growers the flexibility to move more fruit per trip. With a 2000 kg load rating, it comfortably carries 3 full bins in tighter headlands and orchard blocks — and with 1,200 mm extension forks, it can carry 4 full bins, delivering up to 33% more capacity than a 3-bin trailer when conditions allow.

Built with high-flotation ag wheels, a heavy-duty RHS frame, and Transtak’s proven fork design, the 1500LE is designed to adapt across multiple blocks and varying headland spacings. Growers can downsize to 3 bins in tight rows or upsize to 4 bins where space allows — giving true versatility at harvest.

In apple and citrus orchards, particularly in Australia, the 1500LE is widely used as a dedicated 4-bin trailer, carrying 4 x 500 kg bins per trip. Combined with Transtak’s Soft-Ride suspension system, it delivers unmatched ride quality and protection for fruit on every load.

With single-hose, single-lever hydraulic control, the 1500LE is quick, simple, and efficient to operate. Trusted across kiwifruit, apple, and citrus industries, it’s built tough to handle the pace of modern harvests — cutting trips, saving fuel, and keeping fruit moving.

Benefits

One-Lever One-Hose Operation

One lever does it all — lift and lower bins with ease, making harvest smoother and faster with every quick lift & lower cycle saving time each day, all harvest.

Super Strong, Built Tough

When harvest is in full swing, you need gear you can trust. The 1500L is engineered tough with a bulletproof design, built to perform every day of the season without letting you down.

Superior Ride Quality

Transtak’s unique Hydra-Float soft-ride suspension system cushions every bump, protecting your fruit by delivering a smooth, stable ride through uneven headlands & orchard tracks.
