How much can a Box Trailer carry?
The unladen weight is that of the trailer whilst empty and the Gross Weight is the weight of the trailer and the maximum amount it can carry including the weight of the trailer. Therefore the weight you can carry (payload) is the Gross Weight minus the Unladen Weight.
For example, the C255 weighs 370kg empty and has a total Gross Weight of 1300kg, which means it can carry a payload of 930kg.
