Trailer type

Featuring Freighter’s short, extra strong gooseneck, the Drop Deck Semi trailer can be specifically engineered to optimise pallet capacity and spacing on both upper and lower decks, depending on your freight requirements.

The Drop Deck Semi-Trailer can also be provided with optional pull out ramps to allow machinery to be driven between the lower and upper decks. Optional hydraulic ramps at the rear are a popular option, together with a beaver-tail rear end.

Driving between the lead and tag trailer can also be achieved through the use of Freighter’s bridging decks to create a complete drive-through combination.

Main Applications: High loads, machinery, silage and hay applications.

All Freighter Drop Deck Semi trailers are backed by Freighter Group’s national dealer and service support network.
