Pod Trailer

The Swiss Army knife of trailers

Overview

The Trailer That Started It All

In 2006, industrial designer Phil Savory created the world's first plastic tub pod trailer — and won the Australian Plastic Award (ARMA) for best conversion product doing it. Nearly two decades and 4,000+ owners later, not a single tub has broken or faded.

The one-piece rust-proof polyethylene tub is rated for 20 years of UV exposure. No seams to leak, no steel to corrode, no paint to chip. The smooth aerodynamic shape cuts through the air instead of fighting it, reducing drag and improving your fuel economy on every trip.

Whether you're a tradie hauling tools, a family heading to the coast, or you just need to move house without hiring a van — the Pod Trailer adapts. At only 200 kg tare, almost any vehicle can tow it.

Features

Built to Last, Built to Work

Rust-Proof Forever

Plastic tub won't rust, won't fade — rated 20 years UV stable. 4,000+ owners and not a single tub has broken or deteriorated.

Deep Tub Storage

1 cubic metre of secure storage under the lockable lid. Internal dimensions: 1,820L x 1,200W x 650mm H — room for tools, camping gear, or a full house move.

Lockable Lid

Gas-strut assisted with quick-release for easy one-handed opening. Fully removable when you need to carry oversized loads.

Aerodynamic

Smooth pod shape reduces drag and improves fuel economy compared to flat-fronted box trailers. You'll feel the difference at the fuel pump.

Lightweight

Only 200 kg tare weight — tow with almost any vehicle, from a city hatchback to a full-size SUV. No special licence required.

Heavy-Duty Chassis

Australian-made galvanised steel chassis with 6-leaf slipper springs. Built tough enough for serious loads, light enough for everyday use.

Versatile

Trade, touring, camping, moving — the Pod adapts to whatever you need. Thousands of owners use theirs for everything from daily work to cross-country road trips.

Spare Wheel

Mounted underneath for easy access when you need it, out of the way when you don't. 14" white steel Sunrasia wheels with light truck tyres.

Australian Made

Designed and built at Stockman's factory in Carrum Downs, Victoria since 2006. Every trailer is assembled, tested, and quality-checked locally.
