3 Axle 40ft Skeleton Semi Trailer for 20ft and 40ft Containers

The 3 axle 40ft skeleton semi trailer is a steel container chassis built to move 20ft and 40ft boxes between ports, depots and inland yards. Fleet operators choose it because one chassis handles both container lengths and carries up to 60T. That keeps your fleet flexible without buying separate trailers for each box size.

Why It Works On Site

• 60T load capacity lets you haul loaded containers and heavy freight without a second chassis in the yard.
• 3 axle configuration spreads the load across the trailer for steadier running on long highway legs.
• 40ft deck length accepts a 40ft box directly and a 20ft box with the twist locks repositioned.
• Skeleton frame design cuts tare weight and leaves the container corners exposed for quick crane and reach stacker handling.
• Steel construction suits daily dock work, repeated loading cycles and rough terminal surfaces.

Where It Is Used

This chassis fits the routine work of a container fleet: port-to-warehouse runs, rail terminal shuttles, depot repositioning and empty container transfers. It handles standard dry boxes, and the open frame gives easy access for inspection at the gate.

Operators also use it for regional distribution legs where a box is dropped at a customer site and collected later. The skeleton layout keeps the trailer light and simple to maintain between trips.

Customisation Before Delivery

Axle count, deck length, suspension type, tyres, landing gear, king pin size and colour are settled at order confirmation. Tell us the container sizes you run and the routes you cover, and we will match the build to that duty. Final configuration is confirmed in the quotation.

Buyer Questions

Can it carry both 20ft and 40ft containers?

Yes. The chassis is set up for 20ft and 40ft container transport, so one trailer covers both box sizes.

What is the rated load capacity?

The stated load capacity is 60T. Confirm the rating against your intended payload at quotation.

Can I specify the axle count and tyres?

Axle count, tyres, suspension, landing gear and colour are chosen when the order is confirmed. Send your requirements and they are fixed in the quotation.
