GRUAU Trailers – other models: the collective page for small utility and livestock trailers outside the named series, 549 to 1,140 kg unladen weight, up to 1,400 kg gross weight, 2,050 to 2,480 mm width
This page gathers trailer models from the French maker GRUAU that the register could not assign to one of its named series. GRUAU, based in Laval, builds small trailers for animal and goods transport alongside its vehicle bodywork business. The type designations follow a manufacturer-specific pattern of a series letter such as A or AO followed by a multi-digit code for size and equipment level, sometimes with a suffix letter such as S for individual variants.

The register lists 113 versions with an unladen weight of 549 to 1,140 kg and a gross weight of 795 to 1,400 kg. Widths range from 2,050 to 2,480 mm and lengths from 5,190 to 6,420 mm.
Trailers of this size are common across France and neighbouring markets mainly for leisure and agricultural use, for instance transporting horses, small livestock or equipment. Competition comes from numerous regional trailer builders offering similar single- and tandem-axle models in this weight class.
When buying used, check the chassis and drawbar for corrosion, the condition of the overrun brake coupling and brake linings, and, on livestock trailers, the floor and partitions, which suffer most from moisture and manure. Tyres, lighting and the gross weight plate should match the registration documents. Parts for axles, overrun couplings and lighting are generally available independently of the manufacturer through the general trailer parts trade.

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.
