Alco AW – trailer series from 3.5 to 10 t gross weight: type numbers scaled to weight class, C, H, L and TL versions, 5.6 to 9.2 m long
Alco's AW series groups trailers whose type number visibly rises with the weight class: AW 30 C and AW 3000 sit around 3 tonnes, AW 50, AW 62, AW 70 TL and AW 80 form the mid class, and AW 100 marks the largest version in the register. The letter suffixes C, H, L and TL distinguish body and axle variants of the same base type.

The register lists 10 versions here with unladen weights from 1,580 to 3,380 kg and gross weights from 3,500 to 10,000 kg. Lengths range from 5,630 to 9,200 mm, widths from 2,080 to 2,500 mm.
Spanning the range from the 3.5-tonne class to 10 tonnes gross weight, the AW series covers the transition from car trailer to small commercial trailer, and is accordingly used by both trade businesses and hauliers serving building-site and general-cargo traffic.
When buying used, check the axle assemblies and brake system against the relevant weight class, the frame and platform for corrosion and deformation, the drawbar and support leg, and, on the larger versions, the dual-circuit brake system. Lighting and tyres also belong on the checklist; axle and brake spares are available through the independent trailer parts trade. On the H versions, an additional check of the tow coupling for wear is advisable, since these models tend to see more continuous use. Original registration documents help confirm the correct weight class after any past axle or brake conversion.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
