English term or phrase: low-bed truck
A lowboy (low-loader in British English, low-bed in western Canada and South Africa or float in Australia and eastern Canada) is a semi-trailer with two drops in deck height: one right after the gooseneck and one right before the wheels. This allows the deck to be extremely low compared with other trailers.

neutral  Hilton F Santos: Compare os endereços dos sites na primeira página do Google para: Alternativa: "reboque com plataforma baixa" Alternativa: "carreta prancha" Pode ser útil para a escolha mais adequada!
5 hrs
  -> Depende muito do público-alvo. O pessoal nas obras, inclusive os engenheiros, chamam de "prancha".

agree  Tomasso: that picture is what we always called a ""lowboy"" here, Alibaba em China maybe causeing confusion by it's use of Truck,,(hand) trucks existed before morotization, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_truck
1 day 4 hrs
  -> That's it, Tomasso. It is a trailer truck (always), and it's known as "prancha" in Portuguese.
