Articulated Curtainside Trailers
Curtainside trailers
Curtainside trailers provide a superb way of transporting goods and equipment, whilst keeping them secure and protected from the elements.
Making bulk delivery and collections simple and efficient.
Some of our tri-axle versions have some useful functions that make them very special.
These trailers have self-loading and unloading functionality with mounts on board to carry Moffett Mounty fork trucks (see forklifts & telehandlers).
Some of them have roofs that slide back, meaning we can crane in loads from above – for instance if loading or unloading is performed by overhead gantry cranes or mobile cranes – as well as receive loads from the sides.
In addition these trailers have full-width rear doors.

Our curtainside trailers in action
Read how the Southdown Truck & Crane team delivered some 3m x 1.5m plates to the building site of the new Tottenham Hotspur stadium, helping to stabilise an area to keep the gargantuan task of building the largest single tier stand in Europe moving along.
