Wilson – other models: the collective page of trailers from the US maker in Sioux City outside the named ranges, Double Deck and STAA 3, 0.82 to 16.35 t unladen weight, 0.9 to 39 t gross weight, 10.25 to 14.2 m length

This page gathers the Wilson trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Wilson Trailer has for decades built livestock and grain trailers in Sioux City, Iowa, in the United States; the model names Double Deck and EDD2 Double Deck denote the two-storey livestock trailers for cattle transport, STAA 3 refers to the American Surface Transportation Assistance Act, which regulates the permitted lengths of semi-trailers in the US, and Van marks the closed box version.

The register lists here 16 versions with unladen weights from 820 to 16,350 kg, gross weights from 900 to 39,000 kg, lengths from 10,250 to 14,200 mm and widths from 1,340 to 2,600 mm.

The span from the light class O1 to the heavy class O4 shows the maker's double profile: on one hand the classic multi-axle semi-trailers for livestock and freight transport on US highways, on the other smaller versions of the same name registered in Europe.

On a used livestock trailer, ventilation and the condition of the deck partitions with their non-slip floors matter; on all versions, the air-brake system with ABS, the kingpin and axles for wear, and the frame for corrosion; on the box semi-trailers, the tightness of walls and roof. On examples imported from the US it is also worth checking that the lighting and coupling comply with European requirements.

  • 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.
