Zelfbouw – further self-built heavy trailers from the Dutch RDW register: carousel, caterpillar-ride, game and sales wagons of the showmen, saloon wagons, low loaders and semi-trailers after individual approval

Zelfbouw is Dutch for “self-build” – the entry of the registration authority RDW for vehicles that a business or keeper built themselves and registered through an individual inspection. This collective page covers the heavy self-builds outside the class division, and their model names are a directory of the Dutch fair: Carrousel is the carousel, Rupsbaan the caterpillar ride, Trein the children's train, Spelwagen the game wagon, Verkoopwagen the sales wagon, Salonwagen the showmen's living wagon, Lucky Crane the claw machine; alongside stand Mel and Mol as low loaders with tonnage (7000, 8500), OPL 1227 as oplegger, the semi-trailer, AHW 8-8 and 10-18 as drawbar trailers with axle loads in tonnes, 2-assige aanhangwagen as two-axle trailer. They are built from series axles, brakes and frame sections; the RDW checks braking system, lighting, dimensions and axle loads.

The register lists 33 versions with kerb weights from 1,600 to 23,180 kg, gross weights from 4,300 to 45,000 kg, lengths up to 14,520 mm and widths from 2,000 to 2,840 mm.

The Dutch showmen have been their own vehicle builders for generations: every attraction travels on a trailer that is at once means of transport and part of the structure – registered as a vehicle, often with special permits for width and length.

Anyone taking over such a vehicle checks the registration certificate with axle loads, particulars and inspection deadlines, frame and welds, axles, suspension and braking system, kingpin or drawbar, lighting and tyres; parts usually come from BPW, SAF and Wabco.

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.
