A fire crew is trying to deal with the blaze, which happened close to the junction with the Bottier Road.
It is believed the trailer may have been carrying hay.
One eyewitness told Belfast Live he didn't believe there were any injuries as a result of the incident.
"I had seen smoke coming from the end of the road so went to check it out," he said.
"When I got closer, I could see it was what looked like a tractor trailer with a load of straw.
"The actual tractor and the driver seemed to have made it out of the fire unharmed thankfully.
"The whole road leading into Moira is blocked with smoking debris there though."
The NIFRS said it had sent four appliances to the scene and firefighters were tackling the flames.
