About tow tractor hire
Tow tractors pull trains of carts or roll cages instead of pushing one pallet at a time, which is why airports, distribution centres and large retailers use them. The trailer set matters as much as the truck.
Typical range

Common questions
Do tow tractor operators need a licence?
