GS AI – machine-transport trailers from the Dutch manufacturer in Meppel: low-loaders and platform trailers, unladen weight 2,880 to 9,790 kg, gross weight up to 37,000 kg

GS Meppel is a Dutch trailer manufacturer from Meppel that, besides standard trailers, builds solutions for infrastructure projects, defence applications and customer-specific special constructions. The AI range comprises machine-transport trailers with a low load floor and loading ramp, available with a flat floor, gooseneck or low-loader design. Depending on gross weight, the braking system ranges from the overrun brake of the lighter versions to air brakes with ABS or EBS on the heavy class O4 low-loaders; the latter require a category CE licence, medium combinations BE or C1E.

The register lists 17 versions here with unladen weights from 2,880 to 9,790 kg and gross weights from 4,800 to 37,000 kg; lengths run from 8,650 to 11,100 mm, widths from 2,370 to 2,600 mm.

The span from light trailers for compact machinery to heavy low-loaders for excavators and tracked vehicles makes the AI range a versatile tool for construction companies, municipal services and plant-hire firms in the Netherlands and the border region.

On used AI trailers, check the condition of the ramps, winches and their locks, corrosion on the load floor and stakes, the axles and brakes, and on low-loader versions the function of the lift axle; since machine transport creates high point loads, the frame around the axle mounts should be inspected separately. A tandem or tridem axle group spreads the machine's weight over several axles more evenly than a single axle; on the gooseneck version, a connecting neck takes over the force transfer to the towing vehicle instead of the classic drawbar eye.

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.
