Dercks – further models: collector page of low-loader and special trailers outside the main series, from light single-axle units to heavy multi-axle low-loaders, up to 45 t gross vehicle weight
Dercks builds low-loader and special trailers for the transport and construction trades; this page gathers models outside the named series. The type programme ranges from single-axle trailers with short numeric codes to multi-axle low-loaders such as AN-10-18-24 or AN-10-18-27; the register also lists older, individually named types such as DERCKS T2000 or EXPLORER.

The register lists 90 versions with a gross vehicle weight from 935 to 45,000 kg, ranging from light single-axle trailers to heavy multi-axle low-loaders for construction machinery and special transport. Widths are recorded for 85 of the 90 models, from 1.63 to 2.74 m, and lengths for 40 models, from 1.55 to 14.72 m – from compact trailers to long low-loaders for tracked excavators and wheel loaders.
Low-loaders in this range carry excavators, wheel loaders and other construction machinery as well as oversized loads exceeding the dimensions of standard trailers. Twin-axle versions with overrun brakes cover the lighter end, while heavy multi-axle low-loaders with hydraulic brakes, a reinforced frame and sometimes steered axles are built for tight access on building sites; they compete with specialised European low-loader and special-transport manufacturers.
When buying used, check the frame and loading ramps (deformation, cracked welds), axles, brakes and, on steered axles, the steering hydraulics, plus lashing points, lighting and tyre condition on the often heavily loaded inner axles; corrosion at the ramp hinges is a common weak point. Axle-assembly spares are sourced through specialised 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.
