£15.99Mini Mover 3 Electric Jockey Wheel
A motorised jockey wheel is a powered trailer mover that replaces your standard jockey wheel and drives the trailer forward and backward at low speed. It makes it easy to position a caravan, boat trailer, catering trailer or utility trailer in a garage, driveway, storage yard or campsite pitch where using the tow vehicle isn't practical.
The Novawinch Mini Mover 3 is a 12V electric trailer mover for single-axle trailers up to 2,722kg on level ground. All orders come with free next-day UK mainland delivery, or you can click and collect from our Rothwell, Leeds site.

Choosing an Electric Trailer Mover
Match the mover to your trailer's weight and nose load, and to the surface and gradient where you'll use it. Smooth tarmac and concrete are easiest. Loose gravel, wet grass and slopes reduce traction and increase the load on the motor.
Before you buy, check that your trailer is single-axle, that it's within 2,722kg and that its nose load is within 498kg. Make sure the clamp fits your jockey wheel mount, and that you have a suitable 12V battery.
Motorised Jockey Wheel vs Axle-Mounted Caravan Mover
A motorised jockey wheel fits at the front of the trailer and is quick to fit and remove. An axle-mounted caravan mover is permanently installed on the chassis, drives the wheels directly and usually suits heavier or twin-axle caravans. For occasional positioning of a single-axle trailer, a jockey wheel mover is simpler and far cheaper.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a separate battery to run an electric jockey wheel?
Most electric jockey wheels require a compatible 12V DC power supply. This may be a leisure battery, vehicle battery or another suitable 12V source, depending on the model. The battery and cables should be capable of supplying the current required by the mover, so always check the manufacturer's electrical specification before use.
Will an electric jockey wheel work on gravel or grass?
Electric jockey wheels generally perform best on firm, level surfaces such as concrete or tarmac. Performance may be reduced on loose gravel, soft ground, wet grass or uneven surfaces because the drive tyre can lose traction. Trailer weight, nose load and surface conditions should all be considered before use.
Can an electric jockey wheel move my caravan up a sloping driveway?
Some electric jockey wheels can operate on gentle inclines, but the maximum permitted gradient varies by model and trailer weight. Steeper slopes increase the load on the motor and reduce available traction, so the manufacturer's rated gradient and load limits should always be followed. For steeper or more demanding situations, another method of controlled trailer movement may be more suitable.
Does an electric jockey wheel replace my existing jockey wheel?
Many motorised jockey wheels are designed to fit common jockey-wheel mounting arrangements, but compatibility depends on the clamp size, mounting position and individual product design. Check the dimensions and fitting requirements before purchase, and follow the manufacturer's guidance on whether the unit should remain fitted during towing or be removed after manoeuvring.
