Ever since Western Trailers built what was quite possibly the first aluminum cattle trailer in the West back in 1969, our reputation has been built on quality, innovation and service. As we expanded into outside-frame flatbeds and grain hopper trailers, we made it our business to thoroughly understand the delicate balance between payload and profit. Along the way, the idea that "light weight pays" has become our guiding philosophy. It's made us one of the nation's leading trailer manufacturers, and given our products the highest resale value of any trailer on the road today.
