Need stable operations on “port–terminal–warehouse” routes without axle overload risks? This is where the potential of a 4-axle container trailer is revealed. The fourth axle provides extra load capacity, better course stability at high speeds, and the flexibility to transport 1×40’, 1×45’, 1×30’, 1×20’ centered, or 2×20’ at once.
If you need a 4-axle container semi-trailer for intensive use, it’s essential to choose the right frame, locks, and suspension from the start — these directly affect turnover and cost per kilometer.
The additional axle improves weight distribution, reduces tire and brake wear, and helps pass weight checks without surprises. On long routes, this means fewer delays and predictable on-time deliveries. In urban conditions — smoother maneuvering and the option to lift the “lazy axle” on empty runs. That’s why the 4-axle container trailer is often chosen for mixed fleets and 24/7 operations.
The chassis is built on a high-strength steel frame with shot-blast preparation and multilayer coating. Twist locks (usually 8–12) secure ISO containers, and a telescopic or extendable base allows quick switching between 20’ and 40’/45’.
The running gear includes SAF/BPW axles, air suspension with a lift axle, WABCO/Knorr-Bremse brakes (ABS/EBS), JOST kingpin and landing legs, and a standard 24 V electrical system. This setup reduces “human factor” errors at loading ramps and speeds up turnover.
The price depends on frame type (fixed/extendable), axle and brake electronics brand, presence of a lift axle, number of twist locks, tire size, RAL paint, and additional fittings.
Even if the starting price is higher, a properly configured setup pays off with faster reloading, less wear, and stable resale value. Want specifics? Request a TCO calculation — we’ll show how the final cost per kilometer builds up for your route profile.
The 4-axle container trailer is versatile for:
If needed, configurations can be adapted for reefer containers (sockets and wiring), tank containers (reinforced locks), or for high docks and confined sites.
We provide delivery and commissioning in key cities of Kazakhstan: Almaty, Astana, Shymkent, Karaganda, Aktobe, Pavlodar, Ust-Kamenogorsk, Kostanay, Atyrau, Aktau, Kokshetau, Taraz, Kyzylorda — and other regions on request.
Before shipment, we agree on the spare parts package, provide maintenance instructions, and a delivery checklist so the trailer can go straight into service.
Need an exact price for a 4-axle container semi-trailer or want to compare “in-stock” and “custom-order” options? We’ll prepare 2–3 specifications with different configurations, discuss delivery times, and match tires and fittings to your fleet.
Ready for a deal — simply buy a 4-axle container trailer; want fine-tuning — order a custom package. The latest 4-axle container trailer prices, financing options, and order processing are available at artan.kz — with a convenient online store, transparent costs, and fast communication.

A 4-axle container chassis is designed for transporting extremely heavy containers while meeting strict axle-load regulations.
The fourth axle helps distribute weight more evenly, allowing higher payloads without exceeding legal axle limits.
Yes, some models can carry two 20-ft containers or one 40-ft container, depending on locking positions and local road laws.
Air or mechanical suspensions are standard, with optional lift or self-steering axles to improve ride quality and reduce wear.
Absolutely, 4-axle chassis are used in both port drayage and long-distance inland transport, especially for heavy export loads.
More axles reduce the stress per wheel, improving tire life over time, especially under maximum container weights.
They typically support 20-ft, 40-ft, and 45-ft ISO containers using adjustable twist locks and sliding bogie systems.
Depending on local regulations, gross weight can range from 50 to over 70 tons, particularly for steel-loaded or reefer containers.
Yes, some trailers include self-steering or hydraulic steering axles to help with turning in confined spaces or terminals.
Not all jurisdictions permit 4-axle trailers on standard roads, so route planning and transport permits are often required.
