This Meusburger is a used curtainside semi-trailer — sometimes referred to as a tautliner — located in the Netherlands. Curtainside semi-trailers are a staple of general freight transport, combining the load security of an enclosed body with rapid side access for fork-lift loading and unloading. Meusburger is an Austrian manufacturer with a long-established reputation for producing heavy-duty trailers and semi-trailers serving the European road haulage industry.
This particular unit is a four-axle flat MEGA semi-trailer fitted with an electric curtainside superstructure, making it suitable for oversized or high-cube loads that exceed standard trailer clearances. Of the four axles, two are steering axles — the third and fourth, operating on a friction-steering principle — and one is a lift axle on the first position, giving the operator flexibility to reduce rolling resistance and tyre wear when running at lighter loads. All axles are BPW branded, a widely respected marque in the European trailer industry. Suspension throughout is air, and the trailer is equipped with both ABS and EBS for enhanced braking safety. Brakes are drum type with approximately 40% remaining lining life. A central lubrication system is fitted, reducing maintenance demands on the axle and suspension components.
The trailer measures 13.90 m in overall length with an internal load length of 13.60 m and a standard internal width of 2.47 m. A notable feature is the expandable width: the body can be widened to 5.87 m internally, making this unit well suited for abnormal or wide loads. Internal height stands at 3.08 m in standard configuration and can be raised to 3.53 m, consistent with MEGA-specification trailers designed to carry tall palletised freight. The loading floor sits approximately 90 cm from the ground.
The gross vehicle weight is rated at 51,500 kg, the unladen weight is 10,780 kg, and the payload capacity is 40,720 kg. Tyres are 235/75 × 17.5 inches with an average tread depth of around 60%. First registered on 26 February 2014, the trailer holds a valid roadworthiness certificate (APK/MOT) until February 2025. The seller describes the trailer as being in good technical condition.
