This page gathers the GS Meppel trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The name carries the place name of the Dutch town of Meppel in the province of Drenthe. The model list is dominated by short letter codes such as AC, AI, AIC, AN, AV, OB, OI and OTI, each followed by a number code, plus the model name Maxloader.

The register lists here 52 versions with unladen weights from 3,000 to 17,120 kg and gross weights from 14,000 to 48,000 kg. Lengths lie between 7,630 and 13,980 mm, widths between 2,350 and 2,750 mm.

With gross weights up to 48 tonnes and lengths up to almost 14 metres, these trailers belong to the class of multi-axle low-loaders for carrying construction machinery, agricultural machinery or other self-propelled equipment in heavy haulage. Such trailers are usually paired with a heavy-class tractor unit and are built with extendable ramps or extensions. The span from 3,000 to 17,120 kg unladen weight shows that the range covers both lighter two-axle versions and heavier multi-axle models for large machinery.

On a used low-loader of this size, the condition of frame and load bed, corrosion around the wheel arches and loading areas, the condition and wear of the axles including steering axles, the function of the hydraulic ramps, and brakes and air suspension all matter. The high gross weight makes regular checks of the frame and welds especially important.

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.
