AAA Trailers 45’ Skeletal Trailer in Brisbane

Overview: 45’ Skeletal Trailer

The AAA Trailers 45’ Skeletal Trailer is engineered for operators who need the strength of our 40’ model with extra length for greater transport capacity. Capable of carrying an ATM of 47 tonnes and a GTM of 23.5 tonnes, it’s a proven choice for moving heavy shipping containers across Brisbane, throughout Queensland, and along interstate freight routes. The extended frame design accommodates longer containers while keeping the open-deck format that allows for quick loading and unloading.



A high-tensile steel chassis forms the backbone of the build, paired with K-Hitch tri-axle airbag suspension and K-Hitch 22.5” drum brake axles for steady, reliable handling under full loads. The adjustable length ranges from 12.2 metres closed to 13.72 metres extended, and the trailer comes standard with 3-way container pins, a 50mm bolt-in kingpin (90mm optional), EBS multi-volt braking, and an LED lighting system for road safety.


Standard features include K-Hitch 2-speed landing legs, dual alloy wheels, and plastic radius guards with AAA-branded mudflaps. For operators wanting extra capability, available upgrades include a road train kit, ring feeder, hub odometer, spare wheel, flashing beacon, and road train or long vehicle signage.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are the skeletal trailers new or used?

    All AAA Trailers 45’ Skeletal Trailers supplied to Brisbane, Queensland, and throughout Australia are factory-built from the ground up, never refurbished. Each unit is produced by experienced local builders and undergoes a multi-stage inspection process before it leaves our facility, so you receive it in work-ready condition.

  • Do you offer financing options for the skeletal trailers?

    We do. Our competitive finance options are designed to make it easier to introduce a 45’ Skeletal Trailer to your operation, and you’re welcome to have your own broker inspect the trailer prior to purchase for added peace of mind.

  • Can I customise the specifications of the skeletal trailers I order?

    Yes. You can choose a custom paint colour at no additional cost and select from a variety of upgrades to suit your container transport work. Just note, if your 45’ Skeletal Trailer is built to order rather than from our Brisbane-available stock, the lead time will be longer.

  • Do you have a warranty policy for your skeletal trailers?

    Each 45’ Skeletal Trailer is protected by a 12-month warranty covering any defects in materials or workmanship under normal usage. If a fault appears during that period, we’ll organise a repair or part replacement without delay.

    For Brisbane operators, we sometimes have 45’ Skeletal Trailers ready for immediate collection or dispatch. If yours is a new build, allow up to three months from the time we receive your deposit.
