Annual servicing is recommended for all makes and models of trailer

We specialise in horse trailers offering a convenient mobile service where we drive to you or at our workshop near Uttoxeter/Burton upon Trent .We believe in offering a quality service at a reasonable price. Our service technician, Nic, is fully qualified and insured.
Trailer servicing is a necessity in order to increase the lifespan and residual value of your trailer but most importantly to maintain safety for you, your horse and other road users. Trailers are road going vehicles, they have an independent braking system - brake shoes, brake cables, bearings and a braked hydraulic damper which must all work and be correctly adjusted and maintained in order to stop your trailer when you put your foot on the brake pedal of your car!! These should be done by a reputable trailer service engineer as they are different to car brakes. Tyres must comply to road standards and road lights must all work. Most breakdown policies require trailers to have an annual service or they may be invalidated!!
Side panels, floors and ramps should be regularly inspected to ensure there is no deterioration in order to carry horses safely - this is included as standard with our services.

Double Axle ( most horse trailers are in this category ) £150 plus any parts needed.
Triple Axle ( some larger trailers) £195 plus any parts needed.
