    Hi all,

    I have largish trailer (about 10' * 5') with the removable mesh sides. They make the walls about 4' high.

    Anyway, I went to the tip-head recently, and they told me that they would not let me in again unless i had the trailer covered. (this is understandable, and quite a good idea)

    So, does anyone know where I can get a net/mesh/canvas cover for it?

    Go to a netmaker maybe one in howth and buy a piece of netting off them, it will be cheap.

    Or get some canvas form a sail maker.

    Thanks guys,


    I was thinking along the lines of a purpose made product.
    One with:
    elastic on it, so if you were carying something large you still cover it
    hooks, so you do not have to tie it down every time.

    Prospect, try Cassidy Covers in Clondalkin 01 6266411. You could get a 12x7 or 12x8 tarpaulin with reinforced eyelets all around. All you need then is 50Ft of elasticated rope and away you go.

    :eek: /me seing prospect doing 90mph on the M7 with trailer on back of car/
    :D

    PS : Price. I paid €150+ vat for 20x14 similar last year

    If you buy a piece of netting the right size,all you need to do is thread a piece of bungie through all the bottom loops pull to size and tie off once.
    you will not need to tie it down every time and I guarantee you that you will get change from €50.

    Lidl do a fine big cover
    I bought one for a ride onlawnmower and it would cover at least 3 of them
    all for 15 euro or so'

    and there's a rope to tie it down thru the eyelets
