De Meeuw – other models: chassis and trailers from the Dutch manufacturer of mobile space units for building sites and school pavilions, 420 to 2,500 kg kerb weight, up to 3,500 kg gross weight
De Meeuw is a Dutch manufacturer of mobile space units – building and residential containers, school pavilions and other transportable modules intended for construction sites and school grounds. This collection page lists the chassis and trailers that could not be assigned to any named series; type designations range from short codes such as AUE, TA and EA to number combinations such as BW 430 or VWV 500, used by the company to distinguish its individual production series.

The register lists 54 versions with a kerb weight of 420 to 2,500 kg and a gross weight of 1,250 to 3,500 kg. Width ranges from 1,850 to 2,490 mm, lengths from 5,800 to 8,200 mm.
For De Meeuw, these chassis are a means to an end: they carry the actual space unit to the building site or school grounds once and are then often left standing for as long as the unit remains in use. Competition in the mobile space-unit market is therefore decided less by trailer engineering than by the fit-out, insulation and interior finish of the modules mounted on top.
When buying used, the condition of frame and axles after years of standing still matters most: check for corrosion at the support points, brake system function after long periods of inactivity, and the seal of the lighting system. The overrun brake and coupling should still work despite infrequent movement; spare parts for the chassis come from the general trailer trade, as De Meeuw itself focuses on the space units rather than a dedicated parts line for the running gear.

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.
