Choose a trailer family
Four families, built around how you load.
01
Utility
Open-deck everyday haulers
The open deck that does a bit of everything — mowers, mulch, powersports, and weekend property work. Configure the rail height, sides, and ramp or tailgate to match how you load and what needs to stay put. Every size is built to order on an all-aluminum structural frame with torsion suspension.
- Sizes
- 11
- Starting at
- $3,449
- Payload range
- 2,063–5,977 lb
02
Tilt
Bed lowers to the ground, no ramps
The whole deck tilts to the ground, so low-clearance machines and cars drive straight on — no separate ramps to carry, set, or store. Pull forward and the deck settles level and latches for travel: one person, one latch, loaded. Single and tandem axle sizes cover compact equipment up through cars and heavier machines.
- Sizes
- 6
- Starting at
- $5,750
- Payload range
- 1,965–5,550 lb
03
Deckover
Full-width deck for wider loads
The deck rides above the wheels, so the full width is usable edge to edge — no fenders cutting into the load space. That flat, unbroken surface takes pallets, equipment, and materials that need every inch, loaded from the rear over ramps.
- Sizes
- 4
- Starting at
- $10,349
- Payload range
- 9,400–9,700 lb
04
Enclosed
Secure, weather-tight cargo
A lockable, weather-sealed V-nose body protects anything that should not ride exposed — tools, equipment, and cargo stay dry and secured in transit. Load through the rear door and lock it: jobsite tools during the week, weekend gear after.
- Sizes

- Starting at
- $6,585

- 72–120 sq ft

How buying works
$500 starts the review, not production
Your $500 reservation remains fully refundable until both you approve the exact written Build Order and your settled payments reach 25% of the approved order total. The $500 is credited toward your 25% production deposit. Nothing enters production until you approve the final order.
Start with a proven build
Choose a completed Rugged configuration or begin with a base model.
Make it yours
Select the exact loading, containment, cargo-control, and convenience equipment your work requires.
See your delivered price
Enter your ZIP to calculate Rugged Home Delivery, or choose free factory pickup.
Reserve for $500
Save your exact configuration and start the Rugged Build Audit. Refundable until both Build Order approval and the 25% settled-payment threshold. The fee is credited toward your 25% production deposit.
Approve the Build Order
Review the final configuration, price, delivery, and timing with a factory specialist. Your approval starts production with the 25% deposit.
Rugged builds your trailer
Your approved configuration is manufactured and inspected. The remaining 75% balance is due only after you review photos of your finished trailer, before pickup or delivery.
A Build Audit reviews your model, options, payload, delivery, price, and timing line by line.What the Build Audit covers
The material
Aluminum, where it earns its keep
Not an aluminum skin over a steel frame. The frame, tongue, crossmembers, and decking are structural aluminum — welded in our New Hampshire factory and inspected before anything leaves.
Fabrication quality
Gusseted welds on the frame rail, over tandem axles and aluminum mod wheels.
Aluminum decking
Extruded aluminum deck planks, where specified for the build.
Sourced, not skimped
We specify rated couplers, sealed lighting, and aluminum wheels rather than treating bought components as an afterthought.
Torsion axle
Independent torsion suspension without exposed leaf-spring hardware.
The factory
Built in Hudson, New Hampshire.
FWM Inc. welds, wires, and inspects Rugged trailers with 50+ years of aluminum-fabrication experience.
Owners
The people who tow them.
Anderson chose a 6.5'x14' tandem-axle Rugged with a stone guard for hauling powersports equipment. He found it solid, composed behind his pickup, and well suited to his trips.
