A demountable body and a transport vehicle therefor are disclosed. The body has front-body ramps and the vehicle has rear-chassis rollers. When the vehicle is reversed under the body, the ramps engage on the rollers and the front of the body is lifted. On further reversal, as the body approaches its mounted position, the front of the body is lowered by further front-body ramps rolling over front-chassis rollers or by front-body rollers rolling down front-chassis ramps. The rear of the body is lowered by a chassis lifting bridge or by the vehicle's suspension. The process of demounting is the reverse of the process of mounting.
