Van Weel – other trailers: the collective page of models outside its own ranges, from the 4.5- to the 28-tonne class, unladen weight 2,160 to 8,320 kg, lengths up to 11.46 m
This page gathers the Van Weel trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The model names carry almost throughout the code VW followed by a four-digit number, for example VW 12000, VW 18000 or VW 20000, occasionally with the suffix OPL; they cover the field from the medium-weight tandem-axle unit to the heavy multi-axle trailer and visibly grow in the model name with tonnage from VW 5500 to VW 28000.

The register lists here 33 versions with unladen weights from 2,160 to 8,320 kg and gross weights from 4,500 to 28,000 kg, at lengths from 6,160 to 11,460 mm and widths from 2,260 to 2,600 mm.
The page thus sits in classes O3 and O4 – trailers towed behind lorries and tractor units for transporting construction machinery, bulk goods and general cargo in commercial haulage, with weights ranging from the light tandem-axle to the heavy triple-axle version. Such trailers are common above all in construction, earthmoving and recycling haulage and with hauliers running mixed fleets, where they are towed behind different tractor units.
On a used example, the condition of chassis and axles, rust on load-bearing parts, the braking system and tyres count, on tippers also the hydraulics and the tightness of the side panels, plus lighting, underrun protection and a valid roadworthiness inspection; spare parts for such small-batch trailers usually run through the open trailer trade.
