Utility – other models: the collective page from the Big Tex Utility Trailer to the Semi-Trailer, 1,740 to 9,580 kg unladen weight, 5,000 to 39,000 kg gross weight
This page gathers the trailers the register lists under the designation Utility, without assigning them to a named range. The two listed types – a Big Tex Utility Trailer and a model simply designated Semi-Trailer – differ widely in technical terms, yet are listed together here. As with many smaller sections of the register, the programme is drawn from registration data, in which each model is listed individually with its technical values.

The register lists here 2 versions with unladen weights from 1,740 to 9,580 kg, gross weights from 5,000 to 39,000 kg, lengths from 10,580 to 14,040 mm and widths from 2,550 to 2,600 mm.
With gross weights from 5,000 to 39,000 kg and lengths from 10,580 to 14,040 mm, the span runs from a lighter general-purpose trailer to a full semi-trailer for commercial road haulage. In use, besides the gross weight, the relevant tow vehicle's rating for the towed load or fifth-wheel load is also decisive.
On a used example, the points to check differ by version: on the lighter trailer, axle, wheel bearings, lighting and the state of the load bed; on the semi-trailer, additionally the brakes, air suspension, kingpin and frame along the full length. Parts run through commercial-vehicle workshops and independent trailer operators, and both versions are otherwise serviced like comparable trailers and semi-trailers of their respective size.

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.
