What does it take to build a custom trailer?
Building a trailer correctly requires a sound knowledge of the Australian standards, skills including metal fabrication, welding, mechanical and electrical. You also need a suitable work area and plenty of time.
If you have access to all of these things, building your own trailer could be a lot of fun. However, it might be daunting and time-consuming to find all the equipment and parts you need to build a custom trailer. It’s also very important to understand right at the outset that from July 1st 2023 trailers without a Vehicle Type Approval VTA will not be able to be registered in Australia . This is where Trailers 2000 can assist you. With our expertise and experience, we can save you loads of time, no need to break the bank and waste a lot of time while building a custom trailer.

For example, Trailers 2000 has a wide range of trailers, including tandem axle box trailers, hot-dip galvanised trailers, scissor lift trailers, mining trailers, plant trailers, and our patented TuffMate2000.
If you can’t find what you’re looking for in our inventory or you need extra features, then you should call Trailers 2000 to discuss your customised trailer.

Does Trailers 2000 have experience building custom trailers?
With 30 years as custom trailer manufacturers, Trailers 2000 has all the experience required to deliver the trailer of your dreams. Our galvanised trailers are of the highest quality and we provide excellent after-sale services.
Only recently, Trailers 2000 had the pleasure of building a custom trailer for the Banana Shire Council.
The Banana Shire Council provided a brief of their requirements with some photos of a smaller but similar trailer. They required a tandem axle emergency response trailer designed to carry the emergency signs, witches hats and other equipment required during an emergency. The trailer was to hold each of these items in specific areas along with the provision for emergency power for lighting.
With this information, our team of experts was able to build a custom trailer that met the Council’s exact specifications. The trailer had storage compartments for each of the items to be held within the trailer and also outside the trailer. The trailer also included a solar power system on the roof to supply a 12-volt and 24 volt inverter within the trailer along with emergency lighting.
There are so many benefits of building your own trailer. While shopping for traditional trailers is great, you’re limited to certain standard options that may not suit your needs. The beauty of working with an experienced custom trailer manufacturer like Trailers 2000 is that you get a trailer that functions and looks just the way you want it.
