King Trailers – other models: the collective page of low-loader trailers outside the named ranges, GTS44 to GTSK38/3, 4,624 to 28,900 kg unladen weight, 24,000 to 56,000 kg gross weight, up to 13,870 mm length
This page gathers the King Trailers units the register could not assign to a named range – with four versions sharing the GTS code, this forms a closely related type family. King Trailers of Market Harborough, England, builds low-loader trailers for transporting construction machinery and heavy loads; the GTS code denotes this low-loader design. As with many makers, the programme is drawn from registration data, in which each model is listed individually with its technical values.

The register lists here 4 versions with unladen weights from 4,624 to 28,900 kg, gross weights from 24,000 to 56,000 kg, lengths from 13,200 to 13,870 mm and widths from 2,540 to 3,040 mm.
With gross weights of up to 56 tonnes and widths of over 3 metres, the heaviest versions already fall into the area of permit-requiring special transport, typical for carrying excavators, dozers and other construction machinery; a CE licence with the corresponding additional training is required. The uniform length of around 13.5 metres against a strongly varying weight points to different axle counts and load ratings within the same body length.
On a used low-loader, the condition of the ramps and their hydraulics, the axle assemblies and steering axles, brake electronics, rust on frame and load bed, and tyres and rims all count in particular; on extendable versions the function and locking of the sliding section as well. Parts run through the maker and independent commercial-vehicle workshops. Before purchase it is also worth matching the rated axle loads against the intended use.

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.
