What for
- Move out of a studio or a student room without hiring a van.
- Take garden waste or building rubble from a job to the recycling centre.
- Bring home a second-hand piece of furniture, a fridge or DIY materials.
How to choose
- Light trailer, up to 750 kg maximum authorised mass. It is enough for most jobs and can be towed with a category B licence.
- Open or covered. A cover protects a house move from the rain. An open trailer is easier to load for garden waste and materials.
- Side boards and ramp. Fold-down sides make side loading easier, and a ramp helps with a lawnmower or a sack truck.
- The electrical socket. 7-pin or 13-pin depending on the trailer. Check the one on your car, or ask the owner whether an adapter is supplied.
What to check at handover
- The tyres, properly inflated and with no cuts, and the jockey wheel if the trailer has one.
- The lights, indicators and brake lights, once the trailer is plugged in.
- The coupling locked securely on the tow ball and the safety cable hooked on.
- The condition of the item noted together in the app, with photos, at pick-up and on return.
Rent or buy?
A trailer is used a few times a year, then takes up a parking space or the back of the garden. Renting saves you the purchase, the storage and the upkeep, and lets you pick the right size for each job.
Common questions
What licence do I need to tow a trailer?
With a category B licence you can tow a trailer up to 750 kg maximum authorised mass. Above that, the car and trailer together must not exceed 3,500 kg; otherwise you need the B96 code or a BE licence. The masses are shown on the registration certificates of the car and the trailer.
Does a rented trailer need a number plate?
A trailer of 750 kg or less has no plate of its own. It carries a copy of the plate of the car towing it. Have it ready before the rental day, or ask the owner how they handle it. Above 750 kg, the trailer has its own plate, which starts with a Q.
Is there a deposit?
Between individuals, no: Loutou doesn't manage deposits. Only the booking amount is held on your card when you send a request. A professional can set a deposit on their listing; it's paid in person at handover and appears in the handover condition.
How do handover and return work?
In person, at a time you arrange with the owner. At handover and at return, the owner records the item's condition: a checklist and photos. You check it from your account until midnight the next day: confirm it, or report a disagreement with a photo. If the item doesn't match the listing, don't take it and write to us.
When is my card charged, and can I cancel?
When you send a request, the amount is only held on your card, not charged. It's charged once the owner accepts; with no agreement within 24 hours, nothing is charged. You can cancel until the rental starts, under the listing's policy: flexible, moderate or strict.
