Customization Options: Personalizing Your Trailer to Suit You
September 9, 2024 by Kyle McFarlane
Have you ever struggled to find the perfect trailer that meets all your needs? Whether you’re hauling landscaping equipment, livestock, or moving furniture, having a model that fits your specific needs can make a huge difference. At McFarlane Trailers, we understand this better than anyone, and that’s why we offer a wide array of customization options to ensure your model works precisely the way you want it to.
The Importance of Customizing Your Trailer
Choosing a model that’s tailored to your needs isn’t just a luxury; it’s a necessity. With a custom trailer, you can maximize efficiency, enhance safety, and ensure durability. Customization allows you to select features that improve the functionality of your model, making your work easier and more efficient. A standard trailer might be adequate, but a custom-configured one will be perfect.
For example, if you’re in the landscaping business, a custom rig can include tool racks, reinforced floors for heavy machinery, and specialized compartments for fragile plants. For those in livestock transport, features like ventilation systems, non-slip flooring, and easy-clean interiors can turn a standard model into an ideal hauler.
Not only does customizing your trailer save time and effort, but it also adds a layer of professionalism to your business. Imagine showing up to a job site with a trailer that’s perfectly organized and equipped for the task at hand. It’s not just about looking good; it reflects your attention to detail and commitment to quality service.
McFarlane has a rich history of providing high-quality, durable units. Our broad range of trailers can be customized to fit your unique needs. From utility models to enclosed cargo trailers, we offer numerous options that can be tailored for your specific requirements.
Our team at McFarlane works closely with you to understand your specific needs and preferences. We offer a variety of materials, finishes, and additional features to ensure your trailer is just right for you. Whether it’s reinforced axles for heavier loads or specialized ramps for easier access, we have the expertise and resources to build the model you need.
Custom Trailers for Every Need
One of the best things about customizing your trailer with McFarlane is the sheer variety of options available. Let’s take a closer look at some of our popular models and the customization options available.
Utility Trailers
Utility trailers are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide range of tasks. They’re perfect for landscaping, small construction projects, and general hauling. At McFarlane, we can customize utility models with features like side rails, toolboxes, and drop-down ramps. If you need to transport small machinery, we can add tie-down points and reinforced flooring to handle the extra weight.
Are you a handyman who needs to carry various tools and materials? We can add multiple compartments and storage options to keep everything organized and secure. Need to haul gardening supplies? We can include features like hose reels and watering systems to make your work more efficient.
Enclosed Cargo Trailers
Enclosed cargo trailers are perfect for transporting goods that need protection from the elements. They’re commonly used by businesses for deliveries, by musicians for transporting instruments, and by homeowners for moving. With our customization options, you can include features like extra shelving, climate control, and advanced security systems.
Imagine transporting delicate musical instruments across the country. With a custom enclosed cargo trailer, you can include temperature and humidity control to ensure your instruments stay in perfect condition. Need to make deliveries in the city? Our customization options can include GPS tracking and security alarms to keep your cargo safe.
Dump Trailers
Dump trailers are essential for construction, landscaping, and farming. They’re designed to carry and dump heavy loads, making them perfect for hauling dirt, gravel, and other materials. At McFarlane Trailers, we can customize dump trailers with features like hydraulic lifts, reinforced sides, and easy-access tailgates.
If you run a landscaping business, a custom dump trailer can help you transport soil, mulch, and other materials with ease. Need to haul heavy construction debris? We can reinforce the sides and install heavy-duty axles to handle the weight.
Livestock Trailers
Transporting livestock requires specialized equipment to ensure the safety and comfort of the animals. Our livestock units can be customized with features like ventilation systems, non-slip flooring, and easy-clean interiors. We understand that each type of livestock has different needs, and we can tailor the trailer to meet those requirements.
For example, if you’re transporting horses, we can include padded dividers and tie-down points to keep them secure during transport. Need to transport cattle? Our customization options can include ventilation systems to keep them cool and comfortable.
Deckover Trailers
One of the key benefits of a deckover trailer is the increased loading surface. Without fenders in the way, you gain more usable deck space, which is particularly useful for hauling large items that need every inch of width. Whether you’re transporting lumber, machinery, or oversized loads, our deckover models can be customized with various features to suit your specific needs.
For added functionality, we offer options like fold-down sides, which make it easier to load and unload materials. Reinforced decking can be included to support heavier loads, while additional tie-down points ensure your cargo remains secure during transport. If you require extra stability, we can equip your deckover trailer with dual or triple axles.
Tilt Trailers
Our tilt trailers come in both full-tilt and split-tilt configurations. Full-tilt models feature a bed that tilts entirely, while split-tilt models have a front section that remains stationary while the rear section tilts. This flexibility makes them ideal for a wide range of applications, from hauling small construction equipment to transporting recreational vehicles.
Customization options for our tilt trailers include hydraulic tilt mechanisms for smooth and controlled tilting, reinforced decking for added durability, and customizable tie-down points to secure your load. For those needing to transport heavy machinery, we can include upgraded axles and brakes to handle the increased weight.
