Bw Trailers – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges, BWT and BWH types, unladen weights from 357 to 2,920 kg and gross weights from 1,300 to 3,500 kg
This page gathers the Bw Trailers models the register could not assign to a named range. The models carry codes such as BWT and BWH followed by a three-digit number, as well as stand-alone names such as BW 2600 or BW 3500T. Unladen weights up to nearly 3 tonnes and widths up to 2.55 metres show a range of light to medium trailers within the class up to 3,500 kg gross weight.

The register lists here 21 versions with unladen weights from 357 to 2,920 kg, gross weights from 1,300 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,600 to 2,550 mm.
Trailers of this size serve as car trailers for trades, small haulage and private use, often with side panels or a tarpaulin for general cargo and building materials. They compete with the ranges of the large European series manufacturers but hold their own on payload, equipment and price in everyday commercial work. In Germany and the Benelux countries, such compact ranges are sold mainly through specialist dealers and builders' merchants, less often through the large franchised dealers of the established brands.
On a used purchase, the condition of the drawbar, tow eye and overrun brake, axles, suspension and tyres, rust on the frame, side panels and mudguards, and a working lighting system all count. Spare parts for axles, brakes and fittings are available across manufacturers for trailers of this size.

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.
