A lot of people may wonder what the purpose of a demountable truck may be for. A demountable truck is a truck that connects to a big rig truck and can basically “demount” from the truck, to park in or near a warehouse. This leads to more bodies being able to load up one truck and leads to less time of loading a truck, thus more of a profit for the company and saves money as well to the owner of a truck! This means basically, that the truck will be loaded and on the road a lot faster and thus will reach its destination much faster as well!

The demountable truck concept first came about in 2002, when a couple of gentleman tried testing this out on the truck that they owned as a way to save money and time. Soon, they started converting other people’s semi- trucks into convertables trucks and also purchased used trucks and trucks that were for sale to convert those as well! This was very profitable to the business and they soon build their own empire by doing this! After much hype by large corporations to hurry and get semi trucks on the road faster this was a quick way for any business to profit and make money on.

After the demountable trucks were formed, other things started to come about, such as demountable trailers for trucks, demountable campers, some have a fixed roof, some have a rising roof. These rising roof is easy to pick out, because these have a smaller area or volume and the rising roof campers normally will not come with the same levels of luxury as their fixed roof truck equivalents may come with. It is very difficult, for an example, to build a shower stall or compartment into any kind of rising roof structure, especially the telescopic kind, and necessarily, all of your storage space or modern facilities have to be built in this type of demountable truck at below the waist level due to the small and compact size that are in these trucks.

There are also others that have others that are Monocoque type truck bodies which are moulded and shaped, normally in G.R.P. and that are using the exact same techniques that are used in plastic boat building. Another type that are distinguishable to pick out in a crowd by their squarish shaped bodies are the coach built demountables which are often of a sandwich type construction, these are built with a frame of either wood or sometimes aluminium and use panels of insulating materials that are between an inner wall, probably of ply wood, and an outer skin that consist of aluminium steel or fiber glass type materials.

If you are in the market looking for a truck that will help your business out, save you time and money as well as speed up your time from place A to place B a demountable truck is highly recommended for you to purchase. Also if your family is looking for a nice little camper for that short family trip please consider a demountable one as they are much easier and will save you time over a regular camper!
