Company Profile
Tow-Trust Towbars Ltd are one of the UK's largest manufacturers of towbars and towing accessories. Based in Atherstone, Warwickshire the company has set about forging a strong reputation amongst the trade for supplying the highest quality products. From commercial and non-commercial towbars to an expanding range of trade accessories, Tow-Trust are confident we have the right towing solution for you.

Here at Tow-Trust we have deliberately chosen to site ourselves at the premium end of the market, and this means sourcing the best quality steel and using the latest technology for design and manufacturing processes. This enables us to produce products that our nationwide stockists recommend without hesitation. The Tow-Trust promise from start to finish is simple, 'absolute quality'.

In today's competitive market, every brand and manufacturer seem to make the claim for the quality of their product, yet we constantly hear headlines of how companies are trying to cut costs in order to cheapen the manufacturing process of their products. Cheaper manufacturing costs may lead to cheaply made products, a concept Tow-Trust have challenged through heavy investment in our production process. The whole Tow-Trust operation, from initial computer aided design right through to our high-grade packaging of each towbar, exhibits a remarkable attention to detail.

You may be forgiven for now expecting that this makes our products expensive, however our dedicated sales team constantly monitor our prices to ensure we are competitively priced against all alternative manufacturers. Although our products may not be the cheapest on the market we firmly believe they offer true 'value for money'. We think anyone would agree that you cannot be the cheapest and the best at the same time, and for that very reason we have decided to become the best. After all, ask yourself the question: with a safety critical component such as a towbar would you really want to rely on using the cheapest product?

Tow-Trust have been a quiet success in the towing industry for over 20 years and until relatively recently, it is fair to say that most people who require use of a towbar may only know of a few brands. However, in today's modern world the internet has meant motorists have better access than ever before to new products and possibilities. It is time therefore for the towing industries previous best kept secret to now reap the rewards of years of hard work.

From commercial fleets to the private motorist who drives to the tip once a month, the demands of a towbar are relatively simple: that it is safe, fits well, looks good, and does the job it was intended for. Despite not seeming like a lot to ask, without the proper attention to detail and passion for the product it can be surprisingly difficult to find a towbar that ticks all the boxes and we believe this is where Tow-Trust comes in. In today's market where money is tight and competition is high, it turns out that quality is still a word that means something and with such dedication to producing quality, why would you trust anyone else ....

Vertical detachable swan neck towbar
The majority of Tow-Trust's detachable swan neck towbars are 'vertical' (VK) systems making them fully hidden behind the bumper once the detachable neck is removed. All our VK towbars incorporate a fold away electrical plate enabling the towbar electrics to fold behind the bumper when not in use. Key features of the vertical detachable system are;

Suitable for vehicles with reversing sensors
In most instances this system is completely invisible once the neck is removed and therefore preserves the aesthetic appearance of the vehicle
Alko compatible
Allows free access to the rear of the vehicle
Lockable with a set of two keys provided
Storage bag provided for safe keeping once neck is removed

Tow-Trust offer one of the largest ranges of 'swan neck' detachable towbars.  This system offers a removable solution for customers looking to combine a towing facility with maintaining the appearance of their vehicle.

The majority of our 'swan neck' detachable range are 'vertical' (VK) systems which in most cases are invisible kits that are fully hidden behind the bumper once the detachable neck is removed. Most VK detachable towbars come complete with a single fold away electrical socket plate which enables the towbar electrics to be moved up behind the bumper when not in use. For security purposes, all detachable necks are lockable and come with a set of keys to ensure peace of mind when the vehicle is left with the neck in place. A storage bag is also supplied once the neck is removed for safe keeping.

It is our aim to manufacture all detachables in the VK format due to their neat appearance when the neck is not attached. Unfortunately due to the design of some vehicles, it is not possible for a VK to be designed and fitted. This is usually due to insufficient space behind the bumper for the housing of the neck and the socket plate to be located. In this rare instance we still try to offer a detachable option by designing a 'horizontal' (HK) system. Whilst not being completely invisible this still offers a removable, lockable neck solution that enables customers all the benefits of a detachable system apart from it not being invisible.

The key features of a Tow-Trust detachable system are as follows:

  • Invisible*
  • Easy to use
  • Detachable towball
  • Retractable electric sockets
  • Aesthetically pleasing solution for executive vehicles
  • Increased security (Lockable neck)
  • Full VCA / RDW approval
  • Minimal maintenance
  • Alko compatible
  • Will not affect the reverse sensors once neck is removed

* Please note visibility of towbar and electrics is wholly dependent on vehicle make & model

Worth it if you're a figure/doll collector!
Color: A. Black Board & Black Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch, Color: A. Black Board & Black Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch
I ordered these shelves to display my figures and dolls, and I love the way they look! I ordered 2 sets of the 4 pack in black with black hardware. After looking at reviews, I took the jump and bought them and don't regret it! TL;DR: Listing is accurate, don't use the paper measurement thingy, quality is what you'd expect for the price, doesn't come pre-drilled, easy enough to put together, over all worth it if you're looking for smaller, decent quality, decent price shelves especially if you display figures or dolls. 1. Listing: They are accurate to the measurements! They're only 5.5 inches deep, so there isn't much (if at all) any room for layering. They do feel small, but the listing is accurate!! Mine are paired next to each other to create a "longer" shelf. DO NOT use the paper measurement thingy. Another review mentioned it was un-even, and after holding it to mine, yeah, it was off. I'd highly recommend a stud finder, small leveler, and a white gel pen or marker to mark where to drill if you do. 2. Assembling & Mounting: The shelves didn't come with pre-drilled holes for the mounting options because it was easy enough to screw into. I will warn you that the small screws only came with a singular extra, so be careful about losing them in case it's the same for you... I'd highly recommend doing this on a FLAT surface. I stood the shelves on the side that would be flat against the wall and set the brackets against it. I put one screw in on each side (both brackets have 1 screw to hold them where I want) then I laid it on its top and tightened and added the other screw. I may have done more work than needed, but none of mine are leaning forward or backward super far. I used the "load bearing" mount simply because I like the look but if you intend to put books, I would do the "no drop" design and possibly get some other L brackets for more support since books can get heavy. PLAN WHERE YOU WANT THE BRACKETS if you intend on doing the "load bearing" design or adding any more brackets. 4. Quality: I kind of expected the wood to be a bit thicker/more sturdy feeling, but upon realizing they didn't come pre-drilled, it made more sense. THEY CHIP AND SCRATCH EASILY. If you're like me and don't really care as long as you cant see/don't notice it, then this isn't any concern but they may come damaged cause some of our mail couriers aren't the best. If you stick them in the corner like I did, please be careful about it slipping! I accidentally dropped the second one from a 21-inch TV stand after adding brackets, and the corner chipped (yes, I measured). The hardware is standard screw quality, and the brackets could be better. After reading the broken bracket reviews plus the price, I honestly wasn't expecting much, but they aren't too bad! You can always replace them with another one you like! 5. Overall: I'd say these are worth the price and I see why "customers usually keep this item"! They were easy enough to mount, even if you aren't the handiest man out there. I'd definitely recommend these if you're looking to display anime figures or dolls like I do! They're nice for adding vertical space without sticking out of the wall too much! Definitely good for smaller spaces! I'm very happy with this product and will more than likely return to this listing if I want some decent and affordable shelving! Thank you for reading my review, Im usually hesitant to buy online so I hope it helps you decide if you wanna buy these shelves as well! (Also, in case anyone is wondering the layout, the longest shelf will be 1, the middle length will be 2, the shortest length will be 3. It's the last image of the review!)

Love these shelves! They are sturdy, easy to install, and perfect for organizing bathroom essentials. I used them above the toilet, and they fit perfectly in a small space. They helped me keep things organized while also adding a modern and decorative touch. Great quality and very functional. Highly recommend for anyone looking to upgrade their bathroom without taking up extra space!

Pirate ship shelves bathroom - perfect!
Color: C. Rustic Brown Board & Black Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch, Color: C. Rustic Brown Board & Black Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch
Love these shelves! I ordered them to match my "pirate ship" bathroom theme. They are solid and the wood is finished on all sides. My husband had no issue installing them. The only thing he found odd was the 15/64 drill bit it recommended. That's an odd size. The shelves look great and hold all on my stuff really well!

Amazing little shelves
Color: G. Black Board & Gold Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch, Color: G. Black Board & Gold Brackets, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 16-inch
I love them! I use them in my nail room for clients and to hold my product. They are sturdy enough to put phones, keys, and their water bottles on. Being able to hang them in different ways is awesome for different aesthetics.4 different sizes. Easy to put together it came away with all the hardware you need. My only complaint is that the wood fills rough so not really able to dust them. I have to fix that

Awesome little shelves!

These shelves are actually pretty neat. Super easy to install with provided hardware and measurement paper. It's the perfect size for For smaller collections and even some frames if you wanted. I enjoyed the different styles to choose from when it comes to personal preference. Comes in three sizes for all your decor needs. Wasn't as thin as I thought it would be, now the feel isn't the greatest, but the look is pretty sweet. Held up just fine and the placement for the brackets are pretty cool. Either floating, bracket facing up or down. ideal for anyone who wants a nice looking shelf without breaking the wallet.
