Goldhofer STZ-L: low-loader range from Memmingen for heavy transport, STZ-L 2 to STZ-L 5, unladen weights 9,300 to 17,320 kg, gross weights up to 80,000 kg
Goldhofer is a German manufacturer of heavy-haul and special transport vehicles based in Memmingen. Under the type designation STZ-L the register lists a range of low-loaders for heavy transport whose models run from STZ-L 2 to STZ-L 5, supplemented by codes for axle configuration and payload such as 28/80A or 51/80AA. With gross weights from 36,000 to 80,000 kg, all models sit far above EU vehicle class O4, which already starts at 10 tonnes.

The register lists here 7 versions with unladen weights from 9,300 to 17,320 kg, gross weights from 36,000 to 80,000 kg, lengths from 11,300 to 18,650 mm and widths from 2,500 to 3,200 mm.
Alongside manufacturers such as Nooteboom and Faymonville, Goldhofer ranks among the international leaders in low-loaders for heavy transport; within that range the STZ-L series covers the transport of construction machinery, transformers and prefabricated building elements. At widths up to 3,200 mm and gross weights up to 80,000 kg, special permits, route surveys and often escort vehicles are mandatory.
Buying used, in this range the condition of the axles and, where fitted, hydraulic steering axles, the function of the hydraulics for ramps and gooseneck lowering, the brake system, and the king pin and fifth-wheel coupling all count; spare parts and service run through the Goldhofer dealer network. Additionally, checking the frame's weld seams for cracks and comparing the type plate and chassis number against the vehicle documents both count.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.

- 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.
