Configured by you. Confirmed with the factory.
Build your exact trailer online, and a factory specialist confirms every detail with you before anything enters production. Here is the whole process, start to driveway.
Six steps, no surprises.
Review, payment, and approval are separate steps on purpose: nothing enters production until you approve your final order.
- Start with a proven build
Choose a completed Rugged configuration or begin with a base model.
- Make it yours and see the total
Select the equipment your work requires, then choose factory pickup or confirm Rugged Home Delivery to your ZIP.
- Request your free Rugged review
This is the primary next step for a custom build. Rugged checks the configuration with you before any payment; eligible Real Builds can proceed directly to the order-deposit option.
- Choose whether to pay the 25% refundable order deposit
Only if you decide to start the order: Rugged verifies the full current price before secure payment opens.
- Review and approve the written order
Rugged checks the build and publishes any required revision. Nothing enters production until you explicitly approve it.
- Rugged builds your trailer
The remaining 75% is due before pickup or delivery, after the required approval and production milestones.
Deposit, tax, and timing
- 25% refundable order deposit. Rugged verifies the full current price before payment. Order deposit terms
- Tax and registration: handled in your state — we don't collect them.
- Typically ready in about 3 weeks.
Your build gets reviewed by the people who build it.
The 25% refundable order deposit sends your exact configuration to Rugged for shop review. A specialist checks the setup, delivery, current price, and any required revision before your final written approval.
- Intended use and loading
- Trailer size, payload, and towing information
- Ramp, sides, and cargo-control setup
- Delivery, access, and timing
- Final configuration and price
You approve the final order before manufacturing begins.
The details, when you want them.
Does paying the order deposit start production?
No. The refundable order deposit starts Rugged’s shop review. Nothing enters production until you explicitly approve the final written Build Order.
When do I pay the balance?
The remaining balance is due only after you review photos of your finished trailer — before pickup or delivery, never before.
Can I talk to a person first?
Any time. Call or text 603.324.7402 and a factory specialist — not a call center — will walk through your configuration with you.
