This page gathers the Paul trailers and semi-trailers the register could not assign to a named range – from light platform versions to heavy low-loaders for construction and heavy haulage. Paul is a German maker of commercial trailers and semi-trailers for transport and haulage firms; the type codes PA, POC, POZ, PAK, PAS and PTO order the individual ranges of the maker's programme, while the following digits mark the specific version within a range.

The register lists here 19 versions with unladen weights from 260 to 7,696 kg, gross weights from 1,500 to 38,000 kg, lengths from 6,660 to 13,080 mm and widths from 1,770 to 2,500 mm.

Trailers and semi-trailers of this span serve a broad field between municipal use, construction logistics and heavy haulage; hauliers and building firms turn to them where standard semi-trailers reach their limits, for instance moving construction machinery, containers or bulk goods over short and medium distances.

On used units, the condition of frame and chassis rails counts, corrosion on axle suspension and tipping gear, the brake system with the run-up device, tyres and rims, and on low-loaders the hydraulic cylinders, ramps and side boards; parts for axles, brakes and lighting usually run through independent commercial-vehicle suppliers and the maker itself.

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.
