Affordable Community Trailer Hire – Spotswood

“Why pay $143 for 12 hours of trailer hire at the Shell Servo in Melbourne Road when you get 24 hours hire from Spotswood Trailers for between $50 to $75?”

The Shell servo charges more for a 12 hour trailer hire than we do for almost 3 days!

For tradies, gardeners, movers, and one-off renters, this price difference is jaw-dropping!

This TRZ2-zoned land is privately owned by my mother Faye Towson and is lawfully used under Section 6(3) of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 (Vic) for trailer hire.

This live video stream exists to maintain public confidence, operational transparency, and proof of amenity and compliance of TRZ2's zoning.

It also exists so trailer hire customers can see when we have trailers on site, ready and available for hire!

See something that's not compliant with TRZ2 zoning? See here and here Contact Clarke and he will fix it right away: clarke@spotswoodtrailers.com.au

Please Note: Clarke is undertaking voluntary compliance activities himself until the land is rezoned and brought under the full governance of the Hobsons Bay Council. A recent ministerial letter indicates that the land will be rezoned - see my video below.

Victoria’s Only Privately-Owned, Lawfully-Activated, and Publicly-Live-Streamed TRZ2 Site

Spotswood Trailers at 7 Cullen Court, Spotswood is a rare legal and civic milestone — the only known example in Victoria of a privately-owned Transport Zone 2 (TRZ2) parcel that:

This is not just lawful land use — it's a case study in strategic transparency and planning system integrity.

Helping Locals Who Need It Most

At Spotswood Trailers, we’re more than a trailer hire site. We’re part of the local community — and we believe in giving back.

Pensioners and low-income residents can access reduced rates — no forms, just honesty and trust. We help single parents, carers, and anyone doing it tough move furniture, clean up properties, or transport items affordably. Community groups and volunteers are encouraged to reach out — we’ll do what we can to support your work with very affordable prices and flexible terms.

Every trailer that rolls out of here helps someone build, clean up, or carry on.

Need a hand but worried about cost? Just ask — we’ll work something out.

Special Offer for Hobsons Bay Council Staff

As a show of civic respect and shared responsibility, Spotswood Trailers is offering all Hobsons Bay Council staff a 10% discount on all trailer hires.

Just present your Council Staff ID on pickup, and we’ll apply the discount — no questions asked.

Because good governance works both ways — and we believe in building bridges, not walls.

Using an iPhone? Here’s how to find us in Apple Maps

Apple won’t approve our trailer yard as a separate Apple Maps listing because we operate out of a garage (ironic given how Apple themselves started, we know). Until they see the light, type “INTJ Billing” in Apple Maps—that takes you straight to Spotswood Trailers.

Google is more open minded. Spotswood Trailers has a Google Maps listing.

TRZ2 Zoning

About the Land – TRZ2 Zoning and Transport Corridor Use

Spotswood Trailers operates from a privately owned parcel of land at 7 Cullen Court, Spotswood, uniquely zoned as TRZ2 – Transport Zone 2. This zoning classification typically applies to land set aside for transport-related infrastructure and activity, such as car parks, service areas, and freight support. TRZ2 zoned land is almost always owned by The Department of Transport but not in this case.

Despite its classification as part of the West Gate Freeway transport corridor, this land is privately held, unencumbered, and lawfully activated for small-scale transport utility. Through the installation of heavy-duty trailers, stainless steel retractable security bollards, commercial-grade Vevor ramps, and native Australian landscaping, the site has been transformed into a secure and productive hub that serves both the local community and the Towson family as well (3 brothers who need the trailers ourselves for our own construction and renovation work).

This is not public land. This property is part of 7 Cullen Court and has been fully brought into lawful and functional service, contributing to the transport infrastructure of Victoria — all without public funding or intervention. Our initiative showcases what a family with a small private enterprise can achieve when bureaucracy stands still.

If you are a planner, transport official, or policymaker viewing this site: please note that the 7 Cullen Court Spotswood privately owned transport corridor is now in active, private use. We welcome dialogue, collaboration, and recognition of the innovative potential demonstrated by this micro-hub model.

About the Land – Title Plan and Ownership Details

My parents Edward and Faye Towson purchased 7 Cullen Court, Spotswood in 1993. Since owning 7 Cullen Court we have never, ever had even one member of the general public believe that the vacant block (which now has the trailers parked on it) is privately owned.

Below is a copy of the land title and register search statement from the land titles office which clearly states that the land is owned by my mother Faye Maree Towson.
