Groenewegen – other models: Dutch trailers outside the named ranges, type codes DRAS, DRE, DRO and DZO, unladen weights from 2,640 to 5,090 kg, gross weights up to 10,000 kg, lengths up to 13,070 mm
This page gathers the trailers of the Dutch brand Groenewegen the register could not assign to a named range. The type designations follow the pattern DRAS-4-4, DRE-5-5 and the DRO and DZO series with appended number pairs combined differently depending on the version; the hyphenated spelling is consistent throughout the register. Such coding systems are common in Dutch trailer building and usually denote axle count and payload class within a model family.

The register lists here 7 versions with unladen weights from 2,640 to 5,090 kg, gross weights from 7,500 to 10,000 kg, lengths from 8,220 to 13,070 mm and widths from 2,400 to 2,550 mm.
With gross weights up to 10,000 kg these trailers sit in EU class O3, between the light car trailer and the heavy semi-trailer. They are used in Dutch road haulage as well as in agriculture and construction behind lorries and heavy tractor units, usually towed under a BE or C1E licence. Lengths of over 13 metres point to multi-axle versions with a steered trailing axle for bulky or voluminous loads.
On a used trailer, the frame over its full length for rust and distortion, axles, wheel bearings and the brake system, the drawbar and jockey wheel, and the sides and load floor for wear all count; on the long versions a mid-mounted steering axle, the hydraulic lines and the lighting system including the number-plate light are also worth checking.

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.
