Designed and made in Australia, GLT bottom dump trailers feature the highest quality parts and materials.
We custom create your trailer end-to-end, to suit your specific requirements
Our trailers are designed and made with ease of use and the operator’s safety top of mind.

4mm to 12mm thickness. Choose from either mill finish, mill bright (polished), painted or vinyl.
Our standard front sheet for a Walking Floor is 5mm thick with a polished finish. Other thicknesses and finishes are available.
GLT bottom dump units come standard with manually operated chutes. Our winding mechanism is simple to use and has a light action.
This Razor option gives you the ability to control the opening and closing of the chutes via remote control.
By far our most popular option. The tarp rolls up neat and tidy out of the way when loading. When unrolled, the tarp offers a high level of cover to protect your load. Compared to the QLD style tarp, the roll over is easier for the operator to use, reducing OH&S risks. Side drop is 300mm standard and can be increased to 600mm. A full range of colours available. Razor electronic tarp upgrade available on this tarp.
If you want the most water proof tarp option, tick this option. Tarps come standard with 300mm long flaps front and rear which are pull down tight to seal the front and rear of the tub. The side drop is standard at 600mm. This gives you a bit of extra room to roll over the heaped loads while still getting a tight seal along the side of the tub. A full range of colours are available.
These tarps retract forward to allow loading. The rear part of the tarp has a flap end which is pulled down tight to seal the rear of the trailer once loaded. The tarp supports can range from 200mm to 350mm high. Retractable tarps are not waterproof and leaking can occur. A full range of colours are available.
Our standard light spacing interval is 1300-1500mm. If you want more light bling then we can go as close as 300mm between lights. We also offer lights at the top of the side sheets at matching intervals.
A popular option. The vinyl is applied in 1400mm wide drops with a slight overlap. Each drop can be replaced if they get damaged, making it less expensive to maintain compared to paint. Select from a large range of colour options.
Dress up your radius guards with chrome dress strips. These look great and finish off the guard area nicely.
Another well-known EBS unit popular with our clients. This unit offers stability control and EBS braking. Knorr Bremse offer excellent technical aftersales support.
If safety is high on your list when operating, then you need to consider the Wabco EBS system. This electrically-controlled braking system helps to reduce the risk of serious accidents.
Our construction methods allow us to dramatically decrease the tare weight by having a chassis-less design. The body is engineered to have the skid plate and suspension modules bolted to the main aluminium assembly.
Compartments are custom designed to achieve your desired cubic capacity and axle weights. The floor angle is also customised to suit the angle of repose for your product.
Product is discharged through multiple chutes at the base of the trailer. Depending on the type of combination you are after, compartment locations and discharge points can be moved to achieve correct axle weights.
All GLT bottom dump trailers are chassis-less design. The skid plate and suspension modules are bolted onto the body which decreases the tare weight of the trailer. Chutes can be optioned with manual wind open or electronic remote controls.
All nuts, bolts and washers are stainless steel. All GLT trailers are laser wheel aligned prior to delivery. GLT chassis tippers are available in tandem, tri or quad axle configurations. We have a large range of options to customise your new chassis tipper. See below for some of our most popular options.
To gain maximum tare weight savings on B trailers, aluminium suspension hangers can be optioned. These aluminium hangers are welded directly onto the main beams which eliminate all steel work from the rear of the trailer.
All edges on flanges are sanded and polished to reduce the chances of cracking and to help paint adhere to the steel.
Air bag suspension offers better ride quality, low tare weight and simplified ways of reading load weights. The preferred brands which we supply have passed our field testing protocol and have excellent after sales support. All trailers with air bag suspension are equipped with ball valve taps to isolate individual bags. These taps will allow you to shut off an air bag if it has an issue.
