A drop-deck trailer is a trailer on which the floor drops down a level once clear of the Prime Mover. This vehicle is designed to enable greater operational flexibility and is suited to larger boom lifts and access equipment.
Drop deck trailers are suitable for transporting general freight, over height loads, and bulky or asymmetrical items such as machinery or steel, as their bottom loading deck can lower to the road at 1 metre, to enable a greater load height or volume. This can save you time and money, by circumventing the need for individual Western Power Permits for cargo heights under 3.6 metres.
