Trailer Showroom Testimonials -- What Our Customers Are Saying


Here at The Trailer Showroom, our customers are our top priority. Without you, we wouldn't have become the successful, growing business we are today. As another year comes to an end, we would like to take some time to reflect back on some of our best moments from years past and share some of what our customers had to say about doing business with us.

Customer Testimonials


Picked my trailer today. Perfect fall driving weather. Easy to pick out among the big ones. Only one glitch was one exterior led light didn't work. Even though lunch hour at factory, quality control gal got a technician who had it fixed in 5 minutes. It is exactly what I thought it would be.
 - Mike R 

Please feel free to include this on your testimonial column on your site:

I purchased a 24 foot enclosed Continental Cargo trailer last October (2014) online from Trailer Showroom and am very pleased with the whole experience. The trailer was built and completed on time and workmanship was superb. An issue with the tires was corrected immediately; Trailer Showroom sent me four new replacement tires/wheels at no charge and no further questions asked. I have been using this trailer daily since mid-October without a single problem. Highly recommend Trailer Showroom.
- A Very Satisfied Customer

The Trailer Showroom Offering All Aluminum Cargo Trailers


The Trailer Showroom is pleased to offer a selection of All Aluminum Elite Trailers featuring a completely aluminum frame and enclosure, which offers multiple benefits for trailer owners.

Aluminum Trailers are Lightweight

A lightweight trailer means you can haul heavier equipment or cargo than you could with a standard steel frame model. This makes our All Aluminum Elite Trailers preferred by auto collectors, race car owners, and anyone who relies on hauling heavy duty cargo for long distances.

With so many different models and styles of cargo trailers on today's market, it can be overwhelming to try to find the one that's just right for you. To help you find the perfect cargo trailer for your needs, start by asking yourself the following questions.

1. What do I need it for?


The first thing to consider when shopping around for a cargo trailer is whether or not a particular make, model or style will meet your needs. But before you can determine that, you must determine what your needs are first.

Buying a cargo trailer? Here are 5 reasons to choose custom.

Why buy a custom cargo trailer? Well, we can think of a few reasons.


1. Why settle for "almost" what you want?


When you purchase a cargo trailer off the lot, you're getting the features and equipment that come with that particular trailer. If you have very specific needs for your cargo trailer, trying to find one on a lot that has the exact specifications you're looking for will be a challenge. You may have to travel to other cities or even other states to find what you need. And if you're going to go to that much trouble, why settle for "almost" what you want, or "good enough," when you can get a custom cargo trailer built to your specifications?


2. Never spent a day sitting on the lot.


Custom cargo trailers are made to order, following the specifications outlined by you, the customer. Once your custom cargo trailer is constructed, you are notified and are invited to come pick it up from the manufacturing facility. Your custom cargo trailer won't spend time sitting around on the lot, being exposed to the elements.

3. Designed to your specific needs.


Many of our customers appreciate our ability to make customizations based on very specific needs for their business. When you work with us, we'll help you design a cargo trailer that will serve your needs and help you achieve your goals.


4. Don't pay for features you don't need.


Buying a cargo trailer is a fairly large investment, especially if you're buying it for your business. Why spend precious resources on equipment and features you don't need? When you choose custom, you can pick the equipment and special features you want and leave out what you don't.


5. Support American-made products.


Custom cargo trailers from The Trailer Showroom are constructed in the USA. We have several manufacturing facilities throughout the country, from McGregor, Texas to Independence, Oregon to Douglas, Georgia - and we're growing every day! When you buy from us, you're supporting American-made business and local jobs in these communities. With many other companies, the cargo trailers are mass-produced overseas and simply sold in American lots.

Open vs. Enclosed Trailers - What are the Benefits?


When it comes to finding the right cargo trailer, would an enclosed trailer work best for your needs? Or does an open deck trailer make more sense? In today's post, we'll review the basic pros and cons of each to help you make an informed decision.

Enclosed Trailers - Higher Cost, Higher Value?

In general, people assume that because something costs more, it must mean it's more valuable. Well, that's certainly true in many cases. But it's not always that simple. Value is relative. Features that one person finds valuable, another person may not care about. In regard to enclosed cargo trailers, the value lies in the following main benefits:


  • Additional storage/more versatile space
  • Equipment and other items can be securely left in the trailer, eliminating the need to frequently load/unload
  • Can double as sleeping quarters/living space for customers who travel with their cargo (race car owners are usually big fans of enclosed trailers for this reason, among others)

Cargo Trailer Cleaning Tips and Videos

Keeping your cargo trailer looking great is part of maintaining its value and, for business owners, reflecting your company standards. In today's post, we'll cover a few basic tips for keeping your enclosed cargo trailer clean and looking its best.

1. Remove built-up grime.

Use a pressure washer or power sprayer to remove dirt and grime that has accumulated over time. Remember to follow safety instructions and use the washer or power sprayer only as directed.

2. Buff, wax and polish to give it a nice, clean sheen.

Applying a good coating of wax after a thorough cleaning can not only make your trailer look great, it can protect its graphics and paint from the elements. Even if you store your trailer indoors (which is a great idea, we highly recommend it if you can), adding a coat of wax at least once a year can prolong the exterior condition.

Want to add a really nice shine with less effort? Some people have had good results from using teak oil to polish their trailers. Just remember to do a little research before you apply anything to your cargo trailer. Some products may not be intended for your trailer's exterior materials.

Here's a video we found on YouTube of using the teak oil method:



3. Inspect regularly for rust and oxidation.

Check for signs of rust or oxidation and do what you can to remove them and prevent them from appearing in the future. You can find lots of helpful videos and articles online for more information and details on the steps to take to remove rust and oxidation. Depending on your trailer's exterior materials and the level of rust/oxidation present, some methods may work better than others.

4. Store your cargo trailer indoors or under shelter.

If you have a large enough garage or carport, it's best to keep your cargo trailer stored there. Providing shelter from the elements like sunlight, rain, hail, snow, ice, pollen, fallen tree limbs, and so on, can help your trailer maintain its appearance for a longer period of time.

Want a few more tips? Check out these videos we found online:


This one is for a RV with aluminum siding, but the methods could easily be used on an aluminum cargo trailer:
