A curtainsider truck, also referred to as a tautliner truck, has canvas curtains down all sides, which can be drawn back for a forklift to load onto the deck. Then both sides of the curtains are drawn tightly and strapped to the underside of the trailer bed, securing the load firmly to the trailer bed. The curtainsider trucks are easy to load through the sides and rear. They are known for their flexibility, efficiency, and versatility.

What is the name of the curtain side truck?
The curtain side truck is often referred to as a "Curtainsider" or "Tautliner". These terms are commonly used in the UK and Europe to describe trucks with a flexible curtain-like side that can be drawn back for easy loading and unloading of goods.
What are curtain-sided vehicles for?
Curtain-sided vehicles are designed for the efficient transport of goods that require quick loading and unloading. They offer the flexibility of a flatbed truck with the added protection of a closed vehicle, as the sides can be pulled back like a curtain, allowing access to the cargo area from the side. This makes them ideal for transporting palletised goods and other items that need to be accessed easily.
What is the difference between a curtain side and a tautliner?
The terms "curtain side" and "tautliner" are often used interchangeably, but they can have subtle differences depending on the context. A tautliner is a brand name that became synonymous with curtain-sided vehicles, much like how "Hoover" is used to refer to vacuum cleaners. Both terms refer to the same basic design of a truck with a retractable curtain on the sides.
What is the difference between curtain sider and pantech?
The main difference between a curtain sider and a pantech lies in their construction and usage. A curtain sider has flexible curtain-like sides that can be drawn back for easy access, making it ideal for transporting goods that require frequent loading and unloading. A pantech, short for pantechnicon, is a type of truck or van with rigid walls, offering more security and protection for the cargo but requiring more time to load and unload through doors.
