An IBC Water Bowser Trailer provides a practical and efficient way to transport water around horse paddocks, grazing land, farms and smallholdings.
Designed to carry a standard 1000-litre IBC tank, it makes it easy to fill troughs, supply livestock and transport water to areas where mains water is unavailable.
Carry a large volume of water to paddocks, fields and livestock where mains water is unavailable.
Ideal for supplying drinking water to horses, cattle, sheep and other livestock in paddocks and remote fields.
Designed for convenient towing around farms, paddocks and smallholdings using a suitable ATV, UTV or tractor.
A 1000 litre IBC tank provides a substantial water supply for horse paddocks, livestock fields, farms and smallholdings where mains water is not readily available.
One litre of water weighs approximately 1kg, so a full 1000 litre tank contains around 1000kg of water before the weight of the tank and trailer itself is added. This is an important consideration when choosing a suitable bowser and towing vehicle.
If the bowser will be used on public roads, the amount of water that can legally be carried may be considerably less than the full 1000 litre tank capacity, depending on the trailer specification and permitted weight.
Ideal for transporting water around paddocks, farms, equestrian yards and private land where there is no convenient mains water supply.
Designed for transporting water on public roads as well as around farms and equestrian properties. Our road-legal bowser can carry up to approximately 600 litres of water when used on the road.
Water requirements depend on the number of horses or livestock, weather conditions and how often you can refill. Choosing the right capacity can reduce trips to remote fields and troughs.

Also consider useful features such as a jockey wheel, rear support stands, livestock drinking trough and the type of hitch required for your towing vehicle.
