De Burcht DSW – trailer series in the register: from the DSW 3000 TI to the DSW 5400 Z, unladen weight 1.7 to 5.2 t, gross weight 3.5 to 5.4 t
De Burcht was a Dutch manufacturer of light trailers. The DSW series runs from the DSW 3000 TI to the DSW 5400 Z; the designations come from Dutch vehicle registration data (RDW), where they are listed as technical short codes rather than proper model names. As a smaller manufacturer, De Burcht catered to tradesmen, farmers and small hauliers who needed simple, sturdy trailers rather than special constructions.

The register lists here 6 versions with unladen weights from 1,720 to 5,200 kg, gross weights from 3,500 to 5,400 kg, a length of 11,870 mm and widths from 2,230 to 2,580 mm.
With gross weights from 3.5 to 5.4 tonnes, the DSW trailers sit at the boundary of the O2 and O3 classes and belong to the segment of light haulage and tradesman trailers, used to carry machinery, materials or vehicles. In the light trailer segment, such series compete with established brands like Humbaur, Böckmann and Saris; used DSW trailers today are found mainly with regional trade and agricultural equipment dealers.
When buying used it is worth checking the frame and load bed for rust, the condition of axle, brakes and tyres, the function of the overrun brake and lighting, and fittings such as ramps or side panels, which are often missing or retrofitted on older trailers. Equally important is checking the towing eye or coupling for wear, along with the safety chains and the age of the tyre tread.

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.
