Meyers Straelen – other models: the collective page of Fahrzeugbau Straelen on the Lower Rhine outside the named ranges, from the boat transporter to the WM range, class O2 up to 3.5 t, unladen weight 280–970 kg

This collective page gathers Meyers Straelen trailers, built by Fahrzeugbau Straelen on the Lower Rhine, outside the named ranges. The line-up runs from the boat transporter through the WM range (WM AZ25/1, WM AZ12, WM HLC, WMP) to individual codes such as GPD15U/3 and HKCR2527/155. Under EU vehicle classification, trailers up to 3.5 tonnes permissible gross weight fall into class O2, where the whole programme of this page sits.

The register lists here 10 versions with unladen weights from 280 to 970 kg, permissible gross weights from 1,300 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,650 to 2,200 mm.

With this span the page stays entirely within the O2 segment up to 3.5 tonnes; the boat transporter marks the use for boat and leisure transport to harbours and lakes, while the WM models cover the brand's general cargo and site-trailer programme on the Lower Rhine. Such light trailers can still be towed in Germany on a standard category B car licence.

Buying used, on boat trailers what counts is the condition of the keel roller and hull support plus the rollers themselves, generally corrosion on frame and axles, the condition of the overrun brake and its cables and the lighting system; on the WM box bodies also the tightness of the walls and the condition of the tail lift. Spares for the WM range run through Fahrzeugbau Straelen directly.

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.
