Semi-trailers in Singapore: prices and rules

Updated 4 November 2026

New semi-trailers in Singapore cost about S$7,800 to S$19,800 for flatbed, container and low-bed models, while refrigerated, tanker and heavy 80-tonne units run about S$22,600 to S$33,200. The quickest way to current prices is a request on BlaBlaPrice, where sellers reply with their own offers and terms.

Prices are quoted per unit, and listings state the axle count and payload in tonnes, so compare on those figures rather than on the headline price.

Road rules and the tractor unit

Singapore's road traffic rules define a semi-trailer as a trailer built or adapted to form part of an articulated vehicle, so it must match the tractor unit that pulls it. Check the coupling, the number of axles and the payload with your haulier before buying. Ask the seller to confirm the fit with your tractor, not only the price.

Warranty and used units

Some manufacturer warranties cover new vehicles only: one truck maker's warranty terms state that they do not apply to used vehicles. For a used trailer, ask for the service history, the axle and tyre condition, and any papers. A government advisory on amendments to consumer protection explains the "lemon law" remedies for defective goods, so ask the seller in writing which of these apply to your purchase.

Climate, delivery and how it is quoted

Singapore is hot all year, with wet and dry seasons instead of winter, so there is no cold-weather rush to plan around, and delivery dates can be set in any month. Ask whether the price includes delivery to Tampines, Jurong West, Woodlands or Ang Mo Kio. A semi-trailer cannot move on its own, so confirm who supplies the tractor unit and driver, and whether that is in the quote.

What to put in your request

Say which type you need, such as flatbed, low-bed, container, fence, refrigerated or tanker, plus the make and year. Give the payload in tonnes and the number of axles, and list the equipment you need, such as ramps, a sideguard or a tipper body. Add the condition, the documents you want with the trailer, your budget and your city.

BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the trailer in your own words in the chat, and a photo can help. The AI reads your request, asks for missing details, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Singapore, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Registered sellers reply in the chat with their own offer, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose who to exchange them with. For neighbouring types see low-loader trailers or container trailers, or read how BlaBlaPrice works.
