Trailers

A curtainsider, or tautliner, is a trailer with a hard roof, solid front bulkhead, rear doors, and retractable PVC curtains on both sides. The curtains, running on horizontal rails, protect the load from the elements and can be pulled aside for easy access.

A box trailer, or van trailer, has solid walls and lockable rear doors, providing high security. It’s widely used in road haulage, especially by large retailers for transporting non-perishable goods, clothing, and household items.

A refrigerated trailer, or reefer, is a temperature-controlled box trailer. It features a Trailer Refrigeration Unit (TRU) mounted at the front to regulate the cargo's temperature. While both reefers and insuliner trailers maintain set temperatures, only the reefer, with its sealed and insulated box, is suitable for frozen goods.

This trailer has an exposed ladder frame chassis for transporting shipping containers, secured quickly using twist-lock fittings. Its adjustable design allows road hauliers to carry one 45ft or two 20ft containers, offering increased flexibility.

Walking floor trailers solve loading and unloading challenges with moving horizontal slats powered by hydraulic rams. These slats slide back and forth, moving cargo like fully loaded pallets along the truck bed with ease.

A flatbed trailer features an open deck without walls, roof, or doors. Commonly, it has a steel chassis and wooden deck. Its simple design is popular in road haulage, ideal for transporting heavy and irregularly shaped cargo.

A tipper trailer has a hinged rear and a hydraulic front that lifts for quick unloading of bulk goods. It’s commonly used in construction, agriculture, and recycling industries.
