FAQs
Everything you need to know about buying a custom aluminum trailer from Rugged.
Can I buy a Rugged Trailer from a local dealer?
To ensure the best possible pricing and customer experience, Rugged Trailers are exclusively sold direct from the manufacturer. We do not offer our trailers through local dealers, allowing us to maintain high quality at competitive prices directly to our customers.
How do I best secure my trailer when it’s not in use?
For the most effective security, use a coupler lock to prevent your trailer from being towed away. Our trailers use a Demco coupler, so a compatible Demco lock offers a secure fit. For an added layer of protection, you can also use a wheel lock to deter quick movement. Consider storing your trailer in a secure, well-lit area when possible.
Can I customize my trailer beyond the options on your website?
We offer a wide range of standard customization options directly on our website. These include choices for size, rails, ramps, accessories, and more, allowing you to tailor your trailer to your exact needs. To provide the best value for most customers, we don’t typically offer customizations beyond those listed. However, if you have a large volume or commercial order, we may be able to accommodate additional customization requests. Contact us to discuss your specific needs!
How do I keep my aluminum trailer looking its best?
Aluminum is a low-maintenance material, and its strength won’t be affected by natural oxidation. However, if you want to tackle any cloudiness and restore shine, lightly scrub the oxidized areas with a green Scotch-Brite pad. A little effort goes a long way! Harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners are unnecessary and could damage the finish.
How do I pay for my new trailer?
We offer flexible options to make your purchase easy. A 25% deposit is required to begin building your custom trailer, and the remaining balance must be paid before your trailer ships. This allows us to include all necessary paperwork (MCO and Bill of Sale) with your delivery. For additional flexibility, you can also finance your trailer through Klarna. You officially become the owner of your trailer once the final payment is made and the paperwork is processed at our facility.
