Bulthuis TI – the Dutch heavy tipping semi-trailer series: numerous body and axle variants, 3.79 to 18.64 t kerb weight, up to 48 t gross combination weight
Bulthuis is a Dutch manufacturer of heavy tipping vehicles based in the province of Groningen, specialising in semi-trailers and trailers for agriculture, earthmoving and recycling. The TI series forms the core tipping semi-trailer programme; the two-digit numbers (TI 6, TI 10, TI 17, TI 24, TI 27, TI 28, TI 30) denote ascending payload or volume classes, while trailing letters (A, C, D, E, F, G, K, R, V) mark different body, side-panel or tipping-direction variants within the same base type.

The register lists 56 versions with kerb weights from 3.79 to 18.64 t and a gross combination weight from 5 to 48 t. Lengths range from 9.75 to 14.05 m and widths from 2.40 to 2.60 m – dimensions typical of three-axle tipping semi-trailers in the heavy-duty segment.
Tipping semi-trailers of this series haul soil, gravel, recycling material and bulk farm produce and are used mainly in construction and agricultural logistics; Bulthuis competes here with other Dutch and Belgian makers of tipping semi-trailers.
When buying used, check the condition of the tipping hydraulics (telescopic rams, hoses, seals), frame and side panels (wear from bulk loads), axles, brakes and the fifth-wheel coupling; hydraulic and running-gear spares are widely stocked by Dutch commercial-vehicle workshops.

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.
