Product overview

At 8.53 m this ROM 550 crosses into the serious end of our enclosed trailer range , and the Premier Package specification follows it there: insulated aluminium walls and ceiling, 1,016 mm of carpet up the walls, a 50 amp electrical package and twin roof vents. The carpet is not decoration. It deadens the drumming that makes a long tow in an aluminium box tiring, and it stops a dropped spanner ringing through the trailer at six in the morning. Specification in metric Model: 2026 ATC ROM 550 Length: 8.53 m (28 ft) Axles: two 2,720 kg spread torsion axles Exterior: 1.02 mm Silverfrost screwless aluminium, 610 mm stoneguard Drawbar: 1,422 mm extended triple-tube, two bogey wheels Rear: beavertail, spoiler with three LED lights, 1,810 kg-rated ramp door with transition flap Access: premium escape door with removable wheel Interior: insulated aluminium walls and ceiling, 1,016 mm carpet on the walls, black coin flooring, black overhead and base cabinets Tie-downs: four recessed rings rated 2,270 kg each Ventilation: two manual roof vents, air-conditioning prep, awning prep Electrical: 50 amp package, two dome lights with wall switch Spare: interior mount with aluminium spare Fit-out: ATC LifeTrac Warranty: 5-year structural warranty as supplied by the manufacturer Insulation and Australian heat An uninsulated aluminium trailer parked at Queensland Raceway in February becomes an oven, and everything stored in it — tyres, fluids, electronics, adhesives — suffers. Insulated walls and ceiling plus two roof vents keep the interior closer to ambient, and the air-conditioning prep means a unit can be added without cutting into finished panels. Bogey wheels and driveway crossovers Two bogey wheels sit under the rear. On a long trailer with a beavertail, the rear underside is the first thing to touch down on a steep gutter crossing or a service station ramp. Bogey wheels take that contact instead of the frame. Imported US-market stock, not assessed for compliance with Australian Design Rules. Registration, roadworthiness and towing requirements differ between states — confirm with your transport authority before road use. The 50 amp US electrical system requires review by a licensed Australian electrician before any 240 V connection. Delivery timeframes are set out in our shipping policy .

Delivery

Delivery is coordinated Australia-wide from the Port Macquarie. Processing takes 1–3 business days; delivery is typically 4–7 business days after processing. The standard charge is $745 per unit (incl. GST) within our standard service area and is shown at checkout once you enter your postcode. Remote, restricted-access, multi-unit and oversize deliveries are confirmed by quotation.

Delivery vehicle

Tilt tray: A straight run behind the placement point (typically about 2.5× the container length plus the truck), firm level ground and clear overhead height. The most common option for 6ft–20ft units: the tray tilts and the container slides off onto the ground.

Illustrative only. Figures are typical; we confirm the vehicle and access with you before dispatch.

Delivery and site access guide

Site access

Before delivery, check for a firm, level placement area, clear truck access and turning room, gate width, overhead power lines and trees, and soft ground after rain. A tilt tray typically needs a straight run behind the placement point; side loaders need clear space along one side. Our team confirms the right vehicle with you before dispatch.

Warranty

New units carry an 18 months voluntary warranty from delivery against manufacturing and structural defects. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law are not limited by this warranty. Warranty policy · Returns
