Our Story
American Made | Veteran Owned
Express Custom Trailers, formerly Express Trailers, is one of the largest and most trusted trailer manufacturers in the Southeast. Founded in 1985, the goal has always been to deliver high quality workmanship and professionalism, which is that separates Express from the rest.
While our business model has changed over the years, our quality and customer service has remained the same. Our new owner, John Hubbard, bought the company in 2021, and shortly after Express rebranded as Express Custom Trailers. Our dealer-model network was eliminated, and we have also now moved away from manufacturing smaller, one-off trailers for retail customers. This allows us to commit 100% of our resources and time to supporting our commercial and fleet accounts.
Whether your business needs one highly-customized trailer or 100, we can handle all of your commercial and fleet manufacturing needs.
Our motto at Express Custom Trailers is "We're Behind You All The Way!", and we build each trailer with this in mind.
We Take Pride in Our Employees, and They Take Pride in Their Work.
At Express Custom Trailers, our employees are the heart of our operations. We take immense pride in their dedication, skills, and craftsmanship, knowing that their commitment directly translates into the quality of our trailers. Each team member takes ownership of their work, ensuring that every trailer we produce meets the highest standards of excellence. Together, we build not just trailers, but a legacy of trust and reliability that our customers can depend on.

TESTIMONIALS
What Others Are Saying
Southeast Abatement (SEAS) is a Florida based demo and abatement company that works nationwide. We are proud to manufacture their custom trailers that not only have all the small details they need but can also stand the abuse and wear and tear of the heavy equipment required for their jobs.
Boss Air Systems provides custom air systems for other companies. Their trailers are very specific to each customer and highly customized. We have worked with Boss for years to fine tune their trailer to meet their changing needs. At Express Custom Trailers, we do not make "stock" models, we work with each corporate account to develop their own model, and then make as many as they need.
Blu Landscaping is a small, local landscaping business. While we specialize in larger, nationwide corporate accounts, we really take pride in providing heavy duty commercial trailers for local small businesses. Ten trailers or one hundred, we treat each customer and trailer the exact same.
What Our Customers Are Saying
No other trailer manufacturer takes the time to design a trailer for our needs from the ground up like Express. There really is no other place we could get this level of quality at the quantity we require.
