Groenewegen is a Dutch manufacturer of commercial trailers and semi-trailers. The model names of the 40.05 range all carry the base designation 40.05, followed by two numbers separated by a hyphen and one of the two letter codes CC or DRO, marking two sub-groups within the range, in some cases with a further addition such as B or R87, for example in 40.05 CCS-16-28 B and 40.05 DRO-12-24 R87.

The register lists here 9 versions with unladen weights from 5,240 to 7,730 kg at a gross weight of 36,000 to 45,000 kg. Lengths range from 12,320 to 13,920 mm, and widths from 2,440 to 2,550 mm.

With gross weights up to 45 tonnes and lengths of around 12 to 14 metres at comparatively low unladen weights, the 40.05 range is among the lightweight-oriented trailer ranges for European road freight, where a low kerb weight allows more payload within the gross weight limit.

When buying a used trailer of this range, check the frame and chassis rails for corrosion and cracking, the condition of the multi-axle units and the braking system, the operation of the suspension, and the tightness of the tarpaulin or body. Wear parts for axles and brakes are available through the general commercial-vehicle parts trade, and on both body variants, CC and DRO, it is also worth comparing the floor construction.
