Article: MEGA trailers, MEGA advantages - DB Cargo FLS expands its fleet
Red trailers, more space, full loads - DB Cargo Full Load Solutions is now on the roads and rails of Europe with 200 new trailers. Particularly striking: 100 MEGA trailers that transport bulky goods with ease, reduce costs and increase safety. Efficient, sustainable and reliable - that's how modern logistics works.
Full Load Solutions (FLS) has invested in its fleet and significantly expanded it: with 200 new trailers, 100 of which are MEGA trailers, we are increasing capacity, versatility and safety in transport.
The MEGA trailers offer around 100 cubic meters of loading volume and an interior height of three meters. The lifting roof enables the transportation of particularly bulky goods. Fewer journeys mean lower costs, lower fuel consumption and reduced CO₂ emissions - a clear benefit for our customers and the environment.
Safety has also been optimized: The trailers are equipped with modern load securing systems and, instead of the conventional clamping beams, additional belt loops that also secure the rear load. The "Angles Morts" sign ensures greater safety when turning and allows use in France without restriction. The trailers are equipped with ADR signs, as well as 3 label pockets on both sides and at the rear for the transportation of hazardous materials. They are also suitable for transporting waste and are Code XL certified as standard.
"A versatile fleet is central to our intermodal business. It helps us to better meet the needs of our customers throughout Europe," says Christian Jeck, Head of DB Cargo Full Load Solutions (Transa Spedition).
The MEGA trailers have been in use on DB Cargo FLS's international road and intermodal connections since February - including for the paper industry on the routes from Sweden to Germany and Italy. With a total of 450 trailers, DB Cargo FLS is setting standards for high-performance, safe and sustainable logistics.
