Drop-decks were the most-searched trailer type on the Bauer Media Group truck and machinery classifieds network in the period January 1-June 16, 2019, exclusive new data reveals.
Some 2,100 second-hand trailers – from A trailers to water tankers – are currently advertised for sale across the network comprising Fullyloaded.com.au, OwnerDriver.com.au, TradeTrucks.com.au, TradeEarthmovers.com.au, TradeFarmMachinery.com and TradePlantEquipment.com.au – reaching an average of almost 500,000 ‘unique’ in-market buyers each and every month.
Drop decks, which account for just over 9 percent of trailers for sale, generated 13.25 percent of searches in the period, ahead of low loaders, which were responsible for almost 10.4 per cent of searches despite comprising a substantially less 4.8 per cent of stock.
Not surprisingly, tippers – which comprise just under 8 per cent of stock – were among the most-searched trailer types, accounting for 9.9 per cent of searches; while dog trailers, despite comprising just 3.3 per cent of stock for sale, generated 9 per cent of searches.
Rounding out the top 5, tankers were responsible for 8.74 per cent of searches, despite comprising just 4.5 per cent of stock.
