Fixed Formation Trailers have wheels at the side of the container. This lowers the centre of gravity and loading height.
Main Advantages:
- Low centre of gravity and excellent stability.
- More comfortable ride for the livestock
- Low loading height.
- Improved visibility for the towing driver
Main Disadvantages:
- Max. internal width of trailer 5ft. 8ins
- Normally can only be used to carry livestock

| Demount Livestock Trailers |

Demount Trailers have the wheels underneath the container so that the body is separate from the chassis.
Main Advantages:
- Body can be lifted off and chassis used for other jobs.
- Wider bodied trailers allowing stock room to turn.
Main Disadvantages:
- Higher centre of gravity
- Greater loading height
