Frequently asked questions.

Do you offer Trailer Warranty?

All Omega Boat Trailers come with a 10-Year Structural Warranty, and 2-Year Components Warranty. *See below for T&C's

Are Omega Trailers NZ made or NZ assembled?

At Omega Trailers, we offer multiple options. Many of our standard Boat Trailers are built and hot-dip galvanised overseas to our high quality specifications and designs using thicker steel than other boat trailers in most cases and then assembled here in New Zealand. Additionally, we have a range of Temared Trailers that are fully manufactured in Europe.

How Do I Choose the Right Trailer for My Boat?

Selecting the right trailer model for your boat is essential, as the size of the trailer affects towing performance, load capacity, and overall maneuverability.

To ensure you choose the correct trailer, consider the towing capacity of your vehicle, the weight and size of your boat, and any applicable safety and legal requirements. These factors are crucial for safe and smooth transportation.

At Omega Trailers, we provide a helpful guide for measuring your boat to ensure you select the right trailer size. Click here to get started.
