Schmitz trailers over 10 t (Class O4) – Schmitz Cargobull, one of Europe's largest semi-trailer builders, with curtainsider codes such as GOTHA and ACF/AWF type series: 198 versions, gross weights 16,000 to 47,000 kg
Class O4 groups together, according to registration data from the Netherlands and Finland, all trailers with a permissible gross weight over 10 tonnes. Schmitz Cargobull, headquartered in Altenberge in Münsterland, is one of Europe's largest semi-trailer manufacturers, building curtainsider, refrigerated, tank and silo vehicles across several plants. The model name GOTHA in the register refers to the plant of that name in Thuringia, which mainly builds curtainsider trailers; type codes such as ACF, AWF, SCB or S3 SD 22 ECS denote individual series and equipment variants of the standard range.

The register lists 198 versions with unladen weights from 2,500 to 27,110 kg and permissible gross weights from 16,000 to 47,000 kg. Lengths are recorded for 185 of the 198 vehicles and range from 5,250 to 14,070 mm, width for all 198 versions from 2,350 to 2,600 mm.
With a consistently standardised range of curtainsider, refrigerated and rigid trailer series, Schmitz Cargobull supplies hauliers right across Europe, setting one of the reference points in the semi-trailer market alongside Krone and Kögel; the uniformly high minimum gross weights from 16 tonnes upward in the register show that almost exclusively full-scale semi-trailers, not light trailers, are recorded here.
For a used trailer, what matters is the condition and mileage of the axles, usually BPW or SAF, the function of the EBS braking system and air suspension, the tightness and condition of the curtainsider tarpaulin including its tensioning mechanism, and frame corrosion on chassis rails. For refrigerated trailers, also check the condition of the refrigeration unit and insulation, for tank and silo variants the tightness of the vessels; Schmitz Cargobull's dense workshop network makes parts supply notably easier than with smaller manufacturers.

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.
