Buying Custom Trailers

When you have made the decision shop for custom trailers there are many things to consider other than the actual design of the trailer.  It is important to make sure that you are going to get exactly what you need.  When buy the custom trailer there is really only one way to do that and this is to make absolutely sure that your contracts are in order.

There should be a minimum of two documents that both yourself and the dealership where you are buying your trailer agree on and that is a blue print and an estimate.

The blue print will provide an exact location for all of your options.  Such things as doors, windows, electrical outlets, switches, cabinets and winches will appear on this document with exact measurements from the front or rear of the trailer.  If you are building a custom trailer and you need things in a certain place, this is the document that will ensure things will be where you want them.  Do not buy a custom trailer before having and agreed upon blue print.

Secondly an estimate is very important as this is the document that will tell you exactly what is on the trailer.  If you are building a custom trailer and do not see a specific option or item in the standard features of the trailer you are not getting it.

This important documents are a must when building a trailer.

 

Trailer Information Blog

This site used to be the home for Stahl Commercial Truck equipment that provided many different products for trucks and truck bodies including dump, lift and tool bed bodies for trucks that may haul trailers.  It appears they are still in business and can be reached at 1-800-277-8245.  It appears their new website is located at http://www.stahltruckbodies.com/.

Recently Millennium Trailers has purchased this domain and we will now use it to write a blog about trailers from time to time.  Millennium Trailers specializes in car trailers for sale.  Millennium Trailers does not modify truck beds any longer, although in the past we have offered new truck beds that were primarily used just for flat bed trailer hauling, and goose-neck trailer towing.  We once sold the Bradford brand.  These truck beds did not offer dump beds or lift cranes or any type of that functionality.

Thanks for visiting the site and check back soon for some good truck and trailer articles.
