PALMS 6S TRAILER
PALMS 6S Forestry Trailer — Mid-size capability, compact control
The PALMS 6S is a single-beam forestry trailer with a 6-ton nominal load capacity, built for operators who need real productivity from a smaller tractor. Its lightweight, compact design makes it an easy fit on farm tracks and in private forest maintenance, while still delivering the stability and durability PALMS is known for. The 6S shares core technologies with PALMS’ larger trailers, including a high-quality KTL (e-coat) base and powder-coated finish for long-term protection, a cleaner look, and strong resale value.
For farmers, lifestyle blocks, and first-thinnings, the 6S provides a practical step up from basic carry solutions without over-capitalising on chassis size or tractor requirements. Pair it with a PALMS crane for safer, faster loading and reduced manual handling, or use it to stage timber for chipping and biomass applications.
As the preferred NZ & AU dealer, ALFA Equipment can help you specify the right 6S setup for your tractor and terrain, with demos, finance, and nationwide after-sales support.
