Zelfbouw – self-built trailers up to 3.5 t (class O2) from the Dutch RDW register: not a manufacturer but the entry “self-build”, individual approval instead of type approval, model names as weight, axle count or year, 190 to 3,450 kg kerb weight
Zelfbouw is Dutch for “self-build” and not a manufacturer: the registration authority RDW keeps the term in the manufacturer field when a trailer was built by its keeper, a farmer or a small business and registered through an individual inspection (individuele keuring) at an RDW test centre – the route prescribed in the Netherlands for every braked trailer over 750 kg gross weight, because these trailers carry a registration plate of their own. This collective page covers class O2 up to 3.5 t. Without a type catalogue the models are designated as they were entered at approval: by gross weight (1300, 2000, 3500), axle count (2 Asser, 3-assige Schamelwagen for the turntable trailer), year of build (1970, 2005) or a running number.

The register lists 515 versions with kerb weights from 190 to 3,450 kg, gross weights from 800 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,380 to 2,550 mm.
The Dutch self-built trailer is typically a working vehicle: turntable trailers for farming and horticulture, low loaders for small machinery, boat trailers for the inland waters, sales and market trailers – built from series axles, overrun couplings and lighting from trade suppliers, whose assembly the RDW checks for braking performance, lighting, dimensions and marking.
Anyone taking over such a trailer checks the RDW papers and the registered weights, frame and welds for rust and cracks, overrun brake, brake cables and reversing mechanism, axles, wheel bearings and tyres, coupling and breakaway cable; wear parts usually come from Knott, AL-KO or BPW and are available through 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.
