Our Story

Move Yourself Trailer Hire (MYST) was founded in 1985 by Bill Cowie. Prior to the establishment of MYST, Bill was building trailers commercially and started with an arc welder and hacksaw.

Bill built his first trailer in his dirt floored workshop and offered it for sale. This workshop ironically was a workshop attached to a service station in the 1970’s.

MYST has now grown to almost 1000 sites across Australia and employs almost 100 hard working Australians. MYST also has 4000+ trailers, Utes, Trucks and Lawnmowers.

Bill now has his 3 children working along side him in the business, and MYST is very much a family business with a family culture.

We are committed to our values at Move Yourself, and aspire to live them as a company each day.

We are your hire professionals.

When you hire from Move Yourself, you're supporting Aussie jobs, Aussie industry and keeping your money in the local economy. ALL Move Yourself trailers are built in-house and using Australian made components where possible. We will not sacrifice quality and Australian made for cost saving.
