Operator Included for Every Job

Tilt Tray Hire Sydney

Professional tilt tray hire across Sydney and NSW. Select Tilt Tray Group provides fully operated tilt tray trucks for the transport of vehicles, machinery, and equipment. Available 24/7 with experienced operators and modern equipment.

Fully Operated Tilt Tray Hire Across Sydney

When you need a tilt tray for a job in Sydney, we provide the truck, the driver and the expertise to get your vehicle or equipment moved safely. Unlike self-drive hire, our service includes experienced operators who handle loading, securing and unloading, so you can keep the rest of the job moving.

 

From our Smeaton Grange base, our team dispatches tilt tray trucks across Greater Sydney, regional NSW and long-haul routes on request. Every job is managed by trained operators who understand load restraint, access restrictions and Chain of Responsibility (CoR) obligations under heavy vehicle law.

 

Our tilt tray hire sits within the wider towing and transport services we provide across Sydney. Our tilt trays also handle race car towing for prestige and motorsport vehicles and heavy vehicle towing for larger jobs.

What We Transport with Our Tilt Trays

Our tilt tray service handles a wide range of vehicles, plant and equipment. Our operators load and secure each item using rated restraints, with truck selection matched to the weight, dimensions and access conditions of the job.

If you are unsure which truck suits your load, our team will recommend the right setup once we know what is moving.

Our Tilt Tray Fleet

Our team operates over 20 trucks from our Smeaton Grange base, from tilt trays carrying 4.2 tonnes up to prime movers with low loaders carrying 24 tonnes. The right truck is matched to the job based on weight, dimensions and any access conditions on site, and every load is secured with rated restraints for safe loading and transport.

 

  • Tilt trays from 4.2 to 6 tonnes for cars, vans and light equipment
  • Lazy axle and heavy tilt trays from 8 to 14 tonnes for larger machinery, containers and heavy loads
  • Prime movers with low loaders from 10 to 24 tonnes for tall, oversized or extra-heavy equipment
  • A flat tray truck with ramp carrying 5.2 tonnes

How Tilt Tray Hire Works

Each job runs through the same five-step process, so you know what to expect from the first call through to drop-off. Our operators handle the load, the route and the safety side of the job, with clear communication along the way.

 

  1. Tell us what needs moving: Provide details about the vehicle or equipment, including type, weight, dimensions and condition, along with the pickup and drop-off locations.
  2. We assign the right tilt tray truck: Based on the load, we select the most suitable truck from our fleet and dispatch a driver as quickly as possible.
  3. We load and secure your load: Our operators use hydraulic tilt trays, winches and rated restraints to load and secure your vehicle or machinery safely.
  4. We transport across Sydney: Your load is moved to the agreed destination within the agreed window, with the operator handling access, route planning and load monitoring along the way.
  5. We unload safely at your destination: Low-angle, controlled unloading minimises risk to people, vehicles and equipment at the drop-off point.

Tilt Tray Hire Coverage from
the CBD to Regional NSW

Every tilt tray we hire out leaves our Smeaton Grange base with a trained operator on board, across three coverage areas:

 

  • Greater Sydney: urgent, same-day and scheduled hire, 24 hours a day.
  • Blue Mountains, Central Coast and Wollongong: site deliveries and equipment moves, with the truck matched to access at both ends.
  • Regional NSW and long-haul: arranged on request, with backloading reducing the cost when your run lines up with one of our return trips.

Let us know about overhead clearance, loading dock times or tight driveways at either end when you call, so we send the right tray.

We approached Select Tilt Tray Group to transport a 10T forklift from Sydney to Gloucester. The machine was collected without hassle and delivered to our workshop on schedule. Definitely the name in forklift transport, no one has the experience or equipment these guys do. Highly recommend 5 stars.
