Eigenbouw – self-built trailers up to 3.5 t (class O2) from the Dutch RDW register: not a manufacturer but the entry “self-build” after individual approval, model names as weight, axle count or type, 240 to 3
Eigenbouw is Dutch for “self-build” and not a manufacturer: the registration authority RDW enters the term when a trailer was built by its keeper or a business and registered through an individual inspection (individuele keuring) – necessary in the Netherlands for every braked trailer over 750 kg, because these trailers carry a plate of their own, while unbraked trailers up to 750 kg run on the towing car's plate. This collective page covers class O2 up to 3.5 t. The model designations are the details from the approval: the gross weight (1000 KG, 1500, 2500), the axle count (1-assige aanhangwagen, 2 assige AHW, 3 assige aanhanger – AHW is the abbreviation of aanhangwagen), the purpose (2 Paards for the two-horse trailer, Schamel for the turntable) or a number.

The register lists 481 versions with kerb weights from 240 to 3,500 kg, gross weights from 800 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,240 to 2,560 mm.
Behind the entry are the working trailers of Dutch everyday life: horse trailers, turntable trailers for nurseries and farms, low loaders for mini excavators and ride-on mowers, boat trailers, market and catering trailers – built from series axles, overrun couplings and lighting from trade suppliers and checked by the RDW for braking performance, lighting, dimensions and marking.
Anyone taking over such a trailer checks the RDW papers and registered weights, frame and welds, overrun brake, brake cables and reversing mechanism, axles, wheel bearings and tyres, coupling and breakaway cable, lighting; 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.
