Custom Industrial Trailers - Built for your Equipment
DrillBuilders designs and manufactures purpose-built industrial trailers engineered around your equipment, your operating routes and your field conditions.
Why choose a Custom Trailer?
Designed around your Equipment
We start with the real-world equipment you want to mount – mud pump, compressor, generator, tank or test unit – and design the trailer to carry it safely, efficiently and within legal limits.
Legal and Safe on the Road
Axle loads, lighting, braking systems and coupling arrangements are planned with compliance in mind, helping you avoid problems at roadblocks and ensuring safer long-distance towing.
Rugged and Maintainable
We use proven suspension systems, robust chassis designs and practical routing of pipes and cables so that the trailer can handle rough access roads and still be straightforward to maintain in the field.

Our Custom Rig Design Process.
1
Requirements
We gather your equipment details, load needs and towing setup to define the right trailer configuration.
2
Concept Layout
We prepare a clear layout showing equipment placement, dimensions and mounting points for approval.
3
Engineering
We finalise chassis design, axles, brakes and mounting frames with drawings ready for fabrication.
4
Manufacturing
We build the chassis, install running gear and mount your equipment with checks at each stage.
5
Test & Deliver
We inspect the trailer, confirm towing behaviour and brief your team on safe daily operation.

Typical Applications for Custom Trailers
DrillBuilders custom trailers are designed for demanding industrial and field work where standard utility trailers are not enough.
Rural & Remote Operations
Trailers that carry pumps, compressors or test equipment to farms, lodges and remote drilling sites where access roads are rough and support is limited.
Contractor & Fleet Services
Standardised trailer designs for contractors and fleet operators, with attention to common parts, easy maintenance and consistent layouts across multiple units.
Industrial & Construction Sites
Trailers used on construction, mining and infrastructure projects to support dewatering, air supply, pump testing and general engineering operations.
