Krukenmeier – other models: the collective page of German trailers outside the named ranges, from platform trailers to heavy and sales trailers, 430 to 6,900 kg unladen weight, up to 28,000 kg gross weight
This page gathers the Krukenmeier trailers the register could not assign to a named range. Krukenmeier Fahrzeugbau GmbH, based in Delbrück in Westphalia, has built trailers and bodies of every kind for over 40 years, from platform and tipping trailers to heavy-load and sales trailers; the chassis are hot-dip galvanised as standard, and box bodies are available in clamped aluminium or plywood-aluminium-wood construction. The sales trailer model shows that, beyond the classic transport trailer, Krukenmeier also builds mobile sales and exhibition bodies.

The register lists here 10 versions with unladen weights from 430 to 6,900 kg, gross weights from 1,300 to 28,000 kg, lengths from 5,600 to 13,680 mm and widths from 1,750 to 2,550 mm.
The span from small car trailers to 28-tonne heavy-load trailers shows the breadth of the Krukenmeier range; the sales trailer represents a niche segment outside classic transport work, for instance as a mobile sales stand or exhibition unit; such special bodies share their chassis with the classic utility trailers but differ clearly in fitout and purpose.
When buying used in the larger versions, check the frame and axle units for wear, on tippers the hydraulics, on box bodies the tightness and condition of the panelling, and throughout the brakes and lighting; thanks to the hot-dip galvanised chassis, frame corrosion generally stays low even on older vehicles.

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.
