Heavy-Duty Trucks and Semi-Trailers for Sale in Kenya
ZS Truck (Shandong Zhongsheng Vehicle) supplies skeleton semi-trailers, flatbed trailers and HOWO tractor trucks to Kenyan buyers across container logistics, construction and agriculture. We ship direct from our factory in Shandong, China to Mombasa, with a full set of export documents and pre-shipment inspection on every order.
Because we build to order, every unit can be specified for the Northern Corridor to Uganda, Rwanda and South Sudan conditions — axle configuration, emission standard, right-hand drive steering and body capacity are all chosen for your operation, not taken from a generic catalogue.

Specification Notes for Kenya
Three specification choices matter most for Kenyan operations:
- Emission standard. Choose the level that matches local fuel quality and registration rules — we will advise on the right option for Kenya.
- Axle and suspension. For the the Northern Corridor to Uganda, Rwanda and South Sudan we normally recommend uprated leaf springs or air suspension, depending on whether the trailer runs loaded on paved roads or on unsealed site roads.
- Payload versus regulation. We size the combination to the axle-load limit that applies in Kenya, so you get the maximum legal payload without overloading.
