Drop Deck Curtain Sider Lead (A) Trailer (With Rolling Posts & Removable Uprights) in Melbourne

Overview: Drop Deck Curtain Sider Lead (A) Trailer 

Built for Melbourne operators who need volume, speed, and flexibility, the Drop Deck Curtainsider Lead (A) Trailer delivers high-capacity freight handling with the convenience of quick side access via rolling curtain posts and removable uprights.



With a 47-tonne ATM, an 8.9-tonne tare, and an 11.7m overall length, it’s well-suited for both long-haul linehaul runs and busy general freight schedules.


The high-tensile steel mainframe, forklift-rated 5mm steel chequer plate floor, and C-channel coaming with tie rail give it the strength to handle the pressures of daily transport work on major freight routes across Victoria and throughout Australia.


K-Hitch tri-axle airbag suspension, 22.5” drum brake axles, and a multi-volt EBS braking system provide dependable handling and control, even under heavy loads. Standard fit-outs include polyweld load restraint curtains, hanging aluminium side gates, LED lighting, stainless-handled toolboxes, and a stainless water tank, making it ready for service from day one.


Optional extras such as custom curtain designs, road train kits, or ring feeders allow you to configure it to your freight mix and fleet needs.
