Melroo – other models: the collective page of trailers outside the named ranges MELROO and OPR 5500 ERC, 1,010 to 6,690 kg unladen weight, 3,500 to 20,000 kg gross weight
This page gathers the Melroo trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The two listed types carry the designations MELROO and OPR 5500 ERC. As with many smaller trailer brands, the figures are drawn from registration data, in which each model is listed individually with its technical values.

The register lists here 2 versions with unladen weights of 1,010 to 6,690 kg, gross weights of 3,500 to 20,000 kg, a length of 10,500 mm and widths of 2,450 to 2,550 mm.
The span of gross weights from 3.5 to 20 tonnes shows that this collective page covers both a lighter trailer towable on a category B licence and a heavy version for commercial goods transport, for which a category CE licence is required. The length of 10.5 metres matches the heavier version more closely.
On a used example, the lighter version calls for checking axle and wheel-bearing condition and the function of the overrun brake, while the heavy version also needs the braking system, frame and landing gear checked. Rust on frame and drawbar, and the state of lighting, tyres and rims, matter on both versions. Parts for such a small brand usually run through independent trailer and commercial-vehicle workshops. It is also worth comparing the VIN and the registration document against the trailer's data plate. Before buying, a test tow is also worthwhile, checking tracking, braking behaviour and noises while under way.

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.
