EZ-2-LOAD Forestry Trailer Products

 

  When Only the Original will Do!

BWS is proud of its nearly 40 year history of producing quality forestry trailers. Our focus has been on delivering VALUE to the purchaser and this has resulted in a high ratio of repeat customers. Our current product lines reflect the on-going strategy of listening to our customers and to our commitment to INNOVATION.

BWS continues to be a leader in lightweight, high strength trailers. BWS was one of the first companies to build an open bunk pierce beam log trailer. A lighter trailer equals heavier payload, every trip.

3 year Structural Warranty on the trailer main frame means we stand behind our product even in the harsh forestry environment.

BWS commitment to constant product development and rigid field testing using only the best components guarantees that you are purchasing the most durable, up to date trailer on the market.

BWS is a time proven Canadian manufacturer. BWS designs and builds trailers to endure the extreme conditions associated with the Canadian environment.

BWS continues to supply trailers to the Maritimes, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, New England, New York and Pennsylvania markets.

 

Features & Benefits

1. BWS offers the best warranty in the business. Full 3 year structural warranty.

2. Holland bolt-in king pin not weld-in. Less down time for repair or replacement.

3. 100,000 ksi 1 piece top and bottom flanges with laser cut webs that are pre-crowned. Laser cut webs greatly increase the trailer longevity and reduce cracking from spliced or pieced webs.

4. BWS heavy duty fabricated front and/or rear bunk, increase trailer longevity when hauling tree length wood.

5. BWS uses Ridewell 30,000 lbs suspensions as standard components.
Ridewell offers the best suspension warranty for forestry applications. The
30,000 lbs suspension gives the trailer endurance in harsh environments.

6. BWS uses a Grote ultra blue light system with a 5 year warranty on the
harness. The system is free of junctions boxes and can be used for either LED or incandescent lights.

7. Each trailer is steel shot blasted to remove mill scale and rust. Steel blasting leaves a clean bare metal surface for proper primer and paint adhesion. Preventing rust from attacking key strength areas of the trailer greatly increases the service life.

8. BWS trailers are complete products. Each trailer is road and work ready when it leaves the plant. Air gauge, cables, steel front fenders, mudflaps dump valve and lift control in stainless steel box, tire hooks and back up lights are standard parts of every BWS forestry trailer. A BWS trailer is ready to work and work well.
