Curtainsider Trailers in perth

Curtainsider trailers (also referred to as tautliner trailers) are widely used across transport and logistics, retail distribution, manufacturing, construction, food and beverage, and agriculture. Curtainsider trailers are ideal for palletised cargo, packaged goods, building materials, and manufacturing components, designed to allow side access along the full trailer length, so there's no need to stack or shift freight to reach the back. Their weather protection and load security also make them a reliable choice for interstate and long-haul runs.

Curtainsider trailers come in two main deck styles: straight deck and drop deck.

A straight deck curtainsider has a flat, uniform floor height across the full trailer length, making it the perfect option for standard-height palletised freight with consistent load dimensions.

A drop deck curtainsider has a lowered centre section, engineered to increase usable internal height, making it better suited to taller, bulkier, or mixed-height cargo that wouldn't fit within the height limits of a flat deck.

AAA Trailers stocks both configurations, including drop deck models with rolling posts and removable uprights for added freight flexibility.

On curtainsider trailers, the curtain panels on each side slide along a top rail system, opening up the full trailer length for forklift access. This allows multiple forklifts to work both sides of the trailer at the same time, which is considerably faster than rear-only loading. Unlike flatbed trailers, curtainsiders don't require manual tarping — once freight is loaded, the curtains are drawn closed and secured. This speeds up turnaround time significantly in high-frequency freight operations.

AAA Trailers' curtainsider trailers are fitted with load-rated load restraint curtains that comply with Australian cargo securement regulations, along with aluminium hanging gates and internal tie rails for additional freight restraint. The curtain material is waterproof and UV-resistant, providing weather protection against rain, wind, and sun exposure on long-haul routes. The forklift-rated chequer plate floor and high tensile steel mainframe add structural protection for heavy or demanding loads.

Our Perth range includes six curtainsider configurations: straight deck A-trailer (12 pallet), straight deck B-trailer (22 pallet), drop deck A-trailer (12 pallet), drop deck B-trailer (22 pallet), drop deck A-trailer with rolling posts and removable uprights, and double drop deck B-trailer with rolling posts and removable uprights. The rolling post and removable upright models offer the greatest loading flexibility for oversized or irregular freight, while the standard configurations are optimised for palletised general freight.
