Transporting extra cab tub? How?

[SR5Hilux4x4]

Hey guys,
Just wondering what the best way to transport a tub home from sydney would be, obviously on a trailer but what kind of trailer? Will a box trailer do with maybe some pieces of timber across rve top and strap it down upside down?
What have other people done?

stand it up on the headboard works best

I bought a extra cab tub a while back and it fit on the back of my mates single cab cruiser upside down with the sides on and up.

I have access to a single cab lux, probably would fit on there with sides off then

I've picked one up with a trailer with timbers across it, just like you said.

Works fine, a little bit of a pain to lift the tub on and off the trailer.

I thought it might be awkward. Probably not as bad as lifting onto the tray of a 4wd ute being alot higher. Will two blokes lift an extra cab tub?

Yeah you might be able to get away with two, three would be better though. They weigh more than you think and it's easy to damage a bottom corner on the tub.

Loosey picked one up which I loaded onto a couple of pallets on a box trailer for him. Looked a little flimsy so not sure if he made it home or not. Has anyone seen Loosey lately?

Hmm, decisions decisions. Whats better, on the tray of a ute or box trailer lol i can only pick it up monday and the blokes not going to have anyone there, just girls. It aint so bad though

You've probably already done it, but….I transported a tub for my dual cab back from Sydney to Newcastle by turning it upside down and plonking it on my existing tub, with the headboard hanging over and outside the tailgate. Tied it down with a few ratchet straps.
