Don Bur Other models

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 4,320 to 9,000 kg, gross weights from 30,000 to 38,000 kg, lengths from 10,300 to 13,800 mm and widths from 2,480 to 2,550 mm.

In British road haulage, which runs 44-tonne articulated combinations, curtainsiders are the standard for palletised general cargo, while double-deck trailers are used where volume rather than weight limits the load, for instance in parcel and retail distribution. Don Bur thus competes with builders such as Cartwright, Montracon and SDC for haulier and retailer business.

On used British trailers, the condition of the galvanised or painted chassis after years of road salt matters, the curtain and roof bows of the curtainsider, on double-deck trailers the hydraulics and mechanics of the raisable intermediate deck, axles and brakes from BPW or SAF and the condition of the kingpin; spare parts run through Don Bur itself and the axle makers.
