Ordered a low loading transverse trailer for 2 motorbikes and an e-bike and picked it up today. Very happy with my new trailer! The trailer was custom built to my requirements and exceeded expectations! They also stored it a few weeks for me because my own car broke down abroad hence I was unable to pick it up earlier. That was really nice of them!
Response : Thank you so much Ute, for your kind words and so happy you are delighted with your new trailer, Kind regards, Wayne.

Thursday 23rd may 2019, We delivered out motorhome to Armitages to have a bike rack and steadies fitted. All staff were friendly and professional. Everything before and after the work was checked and discussed with us. They all went out of their way to be helpful. Besides the jobs they answered various questions my husband asked offering advice and help. Nothing was too much trouble. The bike rack looks and works fab, so do the steadies. I can recommend Armitages to all fellow motorhome owners, it is in my opinion a company you can depend on. Thanks.

If you are thinking of buying a trailer from this company, you need to SERIOUSLY think again! We can not express quite how disappointed we are with the service and goods we received from Armitage Trailers. We ordered a side loading trailer for our Peugeot Metropolis tricycle and were asked for 1 measurement to ensure the bike fitted onto the trailer. On collection and loading the metropolis for the first time we found the “economy wheelchair ramp” supplied was of insufficient length to load the bike. Having borrowed ramps, we found that the wheels also did not fit into the wheel holders at the front of the trailer. This made the trailer unfit for the purpose for which it was bought. We also had a storage box fitted and was told on collection that the box had to be emptied and removed to access the ramp for use. Highly impractical! After asking for a refund we were left in limbo for a week before they could be bothered to call back to discuss. After weeks of negotiations and agreeing to let them alter the trailer, we were finally contacted and told they were incapable of making the alterations required. As the trailer was the nearest thing to what we wanted we have had to make the alterations ourselves with no financial compensation from Armitage. Their customer service has been appalling and we feel seriously let down by their inability to provide a trailer suitable for the purpose it was intended. We feel the trailer was mis-sold and not as described. Don’t touch Armitage Trailers with a barge pole.Moreexpand_more
Response : Julie, We are really disappointed and upset to see your comments as we went above and beyond to offer every solution possible to try and put this trailer right for you as detailed below. The trailer in question was originally designed to take the Piaggio MP3 Scooters hence the trailer on our website is called an MP3 side loading trailer but since then many other brands of 3 wheeled scooters have been introduced like the Yamaha Tricity which we have supplied it for again with no issues at all, your Peugeot Metropolis was the 1st and only 3 wheeled bike to have a problem with the loading angle and wheel support brackets. Firstly - We offered to rectify all the issues raised regarding the trailer as this falls under our back to base warranty but at first you refused to bring it back. We were happy to get a 7' in length b-folding ramp to stop any grounding issues and would have stored quite easily in the same place as the other 5' ramp as we have done for a recent customer with the same bike.Secondly - On receiving the pictures of the front wheel holders and your scooter not sitting flush in these due to the design of your scooter preventing this happening, this would mean us removing the front wheel holders and putting a front rail in its's place but this would have left holes in the deck so we eventually made the decision to offer you a full refund instead because you wasn't happy with most of our suggestions.Thirdly - You then wanted to keep the trailer if we provided 3 x ATV Motorbike ramps and you would make the necessary amendments on the trailer yourselves. We sent these out at no extra cost to yourself.We have all the correspondence on record which confirms the lengths we went too.Moreexpand_more

Had a tow bar fitted to my 2013 Mercedes motorhome and an A Frame fitted to my 2015 MG3. Cannot fault workmanship quality and service. Efficient and friendly staff kept us informed of works progress throughout our stay. Very happy with price, and quality of workmanship. Would recommend this company to anybody.

I Purchased a small trailer which was classed as a camping trailer from this firm 9 years ago which to this day is still nearly as good as new. If I was to purchase another trailer I would have no hesitation in buying another Amitage trailer.
