Vawe – other models: the collective page of light car and trade trailers outside the named ranges, AT, CT and HL types, gross weight from 1 to 3.5 tonnes
This page gathers the Vawe trailers outside the named ranges – light car and trade trailers from the simple tipper to the enclosed box trailer. The type designations combine a code for the product line, such as AT, CT, HL, Elefant or Atlantis, with a number for payload or size, supplemented by suffixes such as TG for braked versions or THK for versions with a high tarpaulin; with 86 models recorded, this is the largest of the Vawe collective pages, showing how far the range branched out over the decades.

The register lists here 86 versions with unladen weights from 240 to 1,730 kg, gross weights from 1,000 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,550 to 2,840 mm.
With gross weights of one to 3.5 tonnes, all the Vawe models on this collective page fall in the class of trailers towed unbraked or braked on a car licence, common in landscaping, trades and private transport; the broad model range allows a fine distinction between payload, load area and price.
On a used example, check the condition of the axle and wheel bearings, the operation of the overrun brake and its cables, rust on the frame and sides – especially around the tipping axle and hydraulics on tippers – and the condition of the tarpaulin or body on enclosed models; on older build years, also check the tyres' load rating against the permitted axle load. Spare parts are available through specialist trailer dealers.

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.
