Benefits of a Concession Trailer
Would your food business benefit from going mobile? Instead of owning a building to serve food, you could be traveling to various areas, offering the same menu in your custom designed concession trailer. Custom Trailers USA could build your trailer to fit whatever your kitchen needs may be. If this is a route you believe your business should take, keep in mind a concession trailer must comply with the same food and safety regulations. Therefore, you will want to design a trailer with the various features below.
Three Basin Sink and Hand Washing Station
As any food business owner knows, sanitation in the kitchen is key. Having a three basin sink in your trailer will make washing and sanitizing dishes much simpler, allowing for ample room to complete these cleaning tasks.
In order to comply with public health regulations, you and your employees will need a place to wash their hands, separate from where food will be handled. To ensure your customers’ and employees’ good health, a specific area separate from the three basin sink should be set up. It should be easily accessible so that all employees are able to wash their hands before handling food. Customers will appreciate your dedication to their health and safety.
Shelving and Storage
Even though you are transforming your food business from a brick and mortar building to a trailer, you don’t have to sacrifice storage space. Including shelving in your concession trailer will give you plenty of space to store food, utensils, pots and pans and any other cooking necessities. Shelving can be customized to maximize your space and fit your business’ specific needs.
Other storage besides shelving is also very important. Your trailer can be outfitted by Custom Trailers USA to fit everything on your menu. You won’t have to leave behind important ingredients or spices just because you’ve moved your business to a concession trailer.
Appliances
Are you worried about the appliances in your custom concession trailer? Your concession trailer will provide enough room for the appliances you need from a refrigerator or oven to a can opener. Plus, Custom Trailers USA will ensure that all appliances are securely attached to the inside of the trailer. Allow the professionals to install these items and you won’t have to worry about taking your business on the road.

Open Window with Logo
Add that extra touch to your trailer by including a flip open window. This will give you a chance to interact with your customers and do business without having to leave the trailer. It also allows you protection from the weather by providing a roof over your head while it’s raining and some shade for those extra sunny days. An additional bonus to a flip open window is the potential for placing your logo on the part that is shown on the outside.
If you’re looking to really get moving with your food business, a concession trailer from Custom Trailers USA could make the difference. The trailer will provide all of the necessities you need to keep your business running on the go, from optimizing space to meet health codes, great shelving, storage and appliances to a flip open window to maximize business.

The Benefits of a Portable Kitchen
Tired of being stuck in one location when cooking? Want to increase the target area of your sales? Whether you are a business owner or just someone who would love to show off their cooking skills to a wider variety of people, a portable kitchen is perfect for you.
Portable Kitchen = Larger Audience
Portable kitchen concession trailers allow for so much flexibility in business. Rather than being limited to one location, a portable kitchen allows you to take your talent on the road and reach a much broader audience. No longer worry about trying to prepare food ahead of time and hope that it is still in good condition when you arrive at your location. Tired of hoping that uncooked ingredients will still be fresh once you reach your location? With a portable kitchen, all of the cooking and prep work can be done at the actual site of the event that you are headed to and everything can be stored or refrigerated properly on the way.
The Ultimate Marketing Strategy
Not only can you prepare the tasty treats that are the heart and soul of your business no matter where you are, but now you can show off all of that catchy advertising that you’ve worked so hard for as well. The outside of the portable kitchen custom trailer can be designed to incorporate custom graphics that will market your product or company wherever you are. Now, you can market your business while you drive to a particular destination as well as while your trailer is parked at an event. Add a website address or a QR code to the outside of the trailer and your customers can learn more about your company while they stand in line waiting for the fabulous product that you are creating for them.
Making the Kitchen “Your Own”
Every business is unique and has needs that could be different from other companies. With a custom kitchen trailer, you have the opportunity to make it fit whatever specific needs you may have. You might need commercial grade appliances, or extra storage space. Maybe you want to be able to travel great distances in shorter periods of time and would benefit from a bathroom inside the trailer. Whatever your needs, the portable kitchen can be customized to fit you and the specifics of your work. Think of the convenience and accessibility this would allow you. Expanding your product line or the types of creations you are able to provide becomes significantly more possible.
Dream big! With a custom kitchen trailer from Custom Trailers USA, the possibilities are endless. What was once a hometown talent stuck in a small town or local area can now become a nationwide phenomenon. Imagine travelling the country and being able to share the wonderful creations you have mastered all because of the portable kitchen designed specifically for you. There is no better way to market your business and increase the audience that you provide service to. Don’t wait, do it now!

Provide Excellent Exposure for your Business with Rooftop Signage
Portable exhibit trailers provide a unique means for new businesses to reach their target market. These trailers advertise as you drive through target areas or anywhere else and provide a great billboard with rooftop signage while stationary.
Why Choose a Portable Exhibit Trailer?
An Invaluable Marketing Tool
Exhibit trailers offer a unique way to promote your business anywhere you choose. These trailers can reach a geographically pinpointed audience that other advertising tools simply can’t. Take your brand and your products where the customers are at the time and place you choose.
A portable exhibit trailer is also ideal for any new product launch. A custom portable exhibit trailer goes where traditional advertising and announcements can’t. Your trailer can showcase new products, make company announcements, and act as a silent salesman.
Employ a Silent Salesman
Custom trailers can sell without saying a word. Their rooftop signage, full graphics, and interior display can do all the talking. They make a visual statement to everyone they encounter. These trailers are designed with increasing your business’ sales and profits in mind. They allow you to inform your customers about special events, promotions, and discounts.
Your portable exhibit trailer provides a key means to implementing your marketing plan in ways other tools can’t. You can utilize it to test new products, display merchandise, offer hands-on sampling, and a face-to-face interaction with your customers.
Why Choose Rooftop Signage?
Advertising and Building your Brand
Get your brand out in front of your customers using rooftop signage. You can build a “location on the go” outside your brick and mortar location. Wherever your custom exhibit trailer goes your logo, name, and brand are front and center, increasing your brand awareness wherever your customers are.
Who Else is Using Rooftop Signage?
Portable exhibit trailers are increasingly present at trade shows, festivals, and other community gatherings. We recently designed a custom trailer for Verizon Wireless. This trailer has a straight passenger side trailer, which opens up and creates a portable location for the company. With their rooftop signage, their trailer provides a true storefront and provides the branding that clients are comfortable with. The signage opens up and displays the name and logo prominently.
What are the Unique Benefits of Rooftop Signage?
Rooftop Signage creates a unique way to stand out above your competition. While your competitors use booths and tabletop stands, your portable custom exhibit trailer presents your company, brand, and products in a way that customers and potential customers will be drawn to. Take it anywhere and let your customers and prospects know that you’re open for business wherever you are.
Rooftop Signage allows your marketers to make a splash in any new market. Go above and beyond simple signage and create excitement in your customers by literally standing above everyone else. Up on the roof!
If you are looking for new and exciting ways to grab attention and make a name in your marketplace consider designing your very own custom portable exhibit trailer with rooftop signage. The benefits to both you and your customers will continue presenting themselves for years to come.

Marketing on Wheels!
Increase Your Marketing Reach with a Mobile Exhibit Trailer
Every business knows the necessity of marketing, whether it be through social media, email campaigns or basic signage. Have you considered using a mobile exhibit trailer to heighten your marketing reach? There are multiple benefits to using a mobile exhibit trailer with custom graphics, flip up signs, rooftop advertising and removable signs and booths.
Custom Graphics
A great way to make sure your company gets noticed is to use custom graphics on your exhibit trailer. This traveling billboard could be used whether you’re advertising in a 10 foot space or a 53 foot space. Custom Trailers USA can help you design any message or graphic you need. This advertising works well because you can proudly display your company name and contact information. It’s great for advertising even while you are traveling. Your display can be seen by someone driving by you on the highway or while you are parked in one spot. You can reach so many more potential customers by using a mobile exhibit trailer.
Signage When You Need It
Another great way to advertise using your exhibit trailer is to use flip up signage. Instead of having your graphic displayed at all times, you can hide it away while traveling and literally flip up the sign when you want to display your message. Your sign will be folded away in the back of the trailer until you’re ready to use it. This type of signage is great if you are worried about your sign being affected by the weather while traveling. As soon as you arrive at your destination, all you have to do is flip your sign up and you are ready to advertise your business!
Be on Top with Your Advertising
If you really want to raise the level of your marketing, try rooftop signage. Instead of having your message on the side of your trailer, your message could be on top. If your business moves around a lot, this could be the signage you need. Having rooftop signage can draw in customers that perhaps other types of signage wouldn’t. Your company could stand out among the others in the area. When your trailer is stationed in a crowded area, having a sign that is above the other trailers in the area could be just the draw your company needs, providing marketing people will see from a distance.
Removable Displays
Even though you may have your message on your trailer proudly advertising your company, you may have other signage needs. You may need to carry signs and booths with your logo on it to set up outside of your trailer. Owning a mobile exhibit trailer can be a great option for this type of advertising also. You could set up a display outside your trailer and allow your customers to come to you and have great conversations about your company with your employees. You could also set up an area to sell your products, making your trailer not only a great way to advertise your business, but to also do business.
A mobile exhibit trailer provides so many options for your company. From mobile billboards, flip up signage, and removable signage, one of these trailers could be what brings your business to new heights.

Calculating Gross Weight for Your Custom Concession Trailer
As you are driving your stylish custom concession trailer through town, you may not be thinking of your trailer’s gross weight (GTW). But keeping this important number in mind will help you avoid dangerous and potentially costly situations. The last thing you want as you travel down your city’s streets is to glance in your rear view to see your trailer swaying from side to side.
The GTW is the weight of the entire vehicle, including passengers, contents and all fluids and you’ll have the GTW. For your custom concession trailer, your gross weight will also include all the meat, veggies and accoutrements inside it. Incorrect GTW can lead to incorrect trailer tongue weight. If the trailer is too light, this can cause the trailer to sway uncontrollably. If the trailer is too heavy, on the other hand, you may have difficulty steering. Losing control is terrifying, but avoidable.
Finding the GTW may seem a bit intimidating, but it’s actually easy to calculate your trailer’s weight with one quick trip. All it takes is a quick stop at the local public scales, and you’ll be able to utilize this number for both current and future travels. You can find your community’s public scales using any internet search engine, or, if you’re old school, in the trusty phone book. These local scales can help you to calculate your GTW without a high cost. One pass by over the scales will be all you need to assess the weight of your fully-loaded custom concession trailer.
Before you weigh your custom concessions trailer, make sure you have disconnected it from the towing vehicle. It is important that the vehicle is not in contact with the scale, and that the entire trailer is on the scale. Taking these precautions can ensure an accurate reading.
There are many factors to consider when calculating your gross trailer weight, including the amount of weight that can be added to your custom trailer without endangering both the trailer and towing vehicles. Being aware of your GTW will save you time and money because you’ll avoid hassle and repairs in the future. If you are unsure or have questions about your GTW, it is best to contact a professional. The experts at Custom Trailers USA are more than happy to help you work out your GTW problems. They’ve got seventeen years experience, which makes them a great choice when it comes to making your trailer safe!
A correctly calculated GTW allows you to calculate other critical numbers, like the custom trailer’s tongue weight, which is usually nine to eleven percent of the GTW. With this calculation, you can find the exact number to shoot for when trying to balance your trailer and towing vehicle. Once you know the safest tongue weights, you can make the necessary adjustments to protect your custom concession trailer.
Even before you hitch up your custom concession trailer, your first step should be to figure out your GTW. This basic step will keep you safe. As you utilize your trailer, Custom Trailers USA can help you be safe and successful.
