The register lists here 33 versions with unladen weights from 5,700 to 9,820 kg, gross weights from 27,000 to 42,000 kg, lengths from 13,550 to 14,050 mm and widths from 2,500 to 2,600 mm.
The refrigerated box semi-trailer is the standard vehicle of food logistics in Europe, from the dairy through the wholesaler to the supermarket; Schmitz Cargobull is, alongside Krone and Schwarzmüller, the market-shaping maker of this segment, with plants in Germany, Spain, Lithuania and Slovakia.
When buying a used reefer trailer, check the condition of the insulation (moisture in the body, dents as a sign of damaged panels), the function and operating hours of the refrigeration unit, the tightness of the doors, the condition of axles, brakes and tyres, and the history of the ATP inspection for refrigerated vehicles; spare parts run through Schmitz Cargobull and through Carrier and Thermo King for the refrigeration units.

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.
