Trucks are the most commonly used vehicles for freight transportation. Today, over 75% of the total volume of domestic cargo transportation is carried out by road transport.
For cargo transportation, bodies (trailers) are often used. Trailers are additional vehicles that are quite widely used. There are many types of trailers, each with different load capacities and purposes.
A trailer has only wheels and must be attached to a vehicle equipped with an engine. Choosing a trailer should be based on specific goals and budget. For example, if transporting cargo that needs protection from sunlight, an enclosed trailer is the better option. Similarly, if transporting cargo already packed in containers, a flatbed trailer can be used.
All trailers differ from each other in design features, functionality, and price.
Bodies can be classified according to several parameters. The main one is load capacity.
Each type of trailer is designed to transport different kinds of cargo. Trailers carry machinery, food products, furniture, animals, various household goods, and much, much more
Flatbed Trailers
Flatbed trailers are highly versatile, which is why they are so widespread. They can be used to transport construction materials and cargo that are not sensitive to external factors or bad weather.
Main types of flatbed trailers:
A flatbed trailer can be equipped with a tarpaulin and a detachable frame.
Enclosed trailers (vans)
Enclosed trailers provide additional security for transported goods and materials. They reliably protect the cargo from weather conditions, external impacts, and theft attempts. An advantage of such trailers is the possibility to equip the interior space with shelves and cabinets for storage.
Tarpaulin trailers
Trailers of this type are divided into several categories.
Curtain-sided trailers have no sides. U-shaped structures are equipped with a roof featuring a sliding frame. Tarpaulin trucks have a rigid front wall and a sturdy frame. Such trailers can transport both machinery and furniture.
Specialized trailers
There are numerous types of specialized trailers. Specialized trailers are used for transporting hazardous materials, providing various medical services, displaying prominent advertising, catering (food delivery at events), and transporting multiple vehicles.
Trailers transporting gasoline, diesel fuel, oil, and flammable materials are quite common on the roads. They have a cylindrical shape. Similar trailers are also used for delivering chemical substances. Transportation regulations for such vehicles are strictly controlled.
Medical trailers enable on-site provision of medical services. They are equipped with all necessary tools for examinations and medical assistance. Like all specialized trailers, they require special permits and licenses.
Billboards mounted on vehicles allow companies to showcase their advertising to a large audience. Event marketing using specialized transport is becoming increasingly popular. Advertising trailers come in a wide variety of types.
