Every trailer ships with our full standard package: a 36" flat-top griddle, 2-burner stove, single-basket fryer, electric 3-compartment warmer, stainless-steel hood with industrial extractor, 3-compartment sink plus hand-wash sink, 30-gallon fresh and 40-gallon grey water tanks with pump and electric water heater, 1-ton cold/heat A/C, six 110V outlets, LED lighting inside and out, service tables and cabinets, and complete plumbing, wiring, and gas installation — all on a tandem-axle trailer with electric brakes. You add your ingredients and your logo.
Yes. Every build includes the stainless-steel hood with industrial extractor, 3-compartment sink, separate hand-wash sink, and hot water system health inspectors look for — with complete plumbing, electrical, and gas installation done right. A hood fire-suppression system is available as an add-on, and some counties require one with a fryer — tell us where you'll operate and we'll spec your trailer to your local mobile-unit code.
Yes. Every Trailer4days trailer is VIN-registered and built to NHTSA and DOT requirements, and comes with the documentation your state DMV needs to title and register it as a road-legal trailer.
Yes — we're based in West Bend, Wisconsin and deliver across the U.S. Milwaukee-metro buyers are also welcome to visit the shop and see their build in person, something out-of-state builders can't offer.
A custom build takes about 3 weeks from payment or approved financing — among the fastest in the industry (many builders quote 6–8 weeks or more). Need it sooner? We keep trailers in stock: an in-stock unit can go home the same day your payment or financing clears.
Yes. We keep finished trailers in stock and ready to go — pay or finance, and it's yours the same day. See the In Stock page for what's on the lot this week, or order a custom build and have it in about 3 weeks.
Most buyers finance rather than pay cash. A turnkey trailer is one of the most financeable business investments you can make — equipment loans and lease-to-own options can put you on the road for a low monthly payment. See our Financing page for a worked example.
60-day workmanship warranty on the build; installed commercial equipment carries its own manufacturer warranties (often 1–3 years).
For most new operators, a trailer. A food truck has an engine, chassis, and drivetrain to buy, insure, and repair — a trailer doesn't, so it costs a fraction of the price and is far cheaper to own. You tow it, park it, and can upgrade your tow vehicle separately.
