No, they simply slide over the top of your tow-ball, the weight of the bin holds it down, over the ball. These are intended for slow towing on private driveways only, but work very well for that purpose.
As with all things, your own local environment may be super extreme -or mild-, it’s hard for us to know what we’re commenting on without more context. It copes well with a normally full bin, with normal recycling in it, up or down a pretty typical driveway. Things like a super heavy load, (wet garden waste etc) or a super steep environment – would challenge any setup. – We’re unable to guarantee anything for extreme usage, but for normal usage, up or down a pretty typical driveway it works well.
Hi, do you have to remove the towbar ball to fit this hitch?
No, they simply slide over the top of your tow-ball, the weight of the bin holds it down, over the ball. These are intended for slow towing on private driveways only, but work very well for that purpose.
Also, do you have these towbar hitches in stock?
Yes, stock status is shown on the individual product pages, that is accurate.
How do these go with a full bin going down hill?
