Price, financing, timing

Buying a trailer

Do you build trailers to order, or sell off a lot?
We build to order. SDG Trailers is a manufacturer, not a dealer — every trailer is fabricated in our own shop at 2255 Industrial Blvd, Waycross, GA, and has been since 2001. We also keep completed builds available, so if your timeline is tight it is worth asking what is on the floor before you spec from scratch.
How much does a custom trailer cost?
It follows the spec. Our recent builds have listed from $17,995 to $174,999, and the spread is mostly length, kitchen equipment and power — an 18-foot concession trailer and a 48-foot mobile kitchen are not the same machine. Spec the trailer you actually want and we will price that trailer, rather than quote you a number that turns out to mean something else.
Are your trailers new or used?
New. Every trailer in our current catalogue is a new build — 47 of 47 listed as new condition.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Finding the right financing partner is often the most important part of the process, so we help our customers arrange it. Fill in the preliminary form on our financing page and a member of the team will call you to talk through the options.
How long does a build take?
That depends on the spec and on what is already on the shop floor — a straightforward concession build and a full disaster-relief kitchen are very different jobs. Tell us the date you need it by when you request a quote and we will tell you straight whether it is workable.

Lines, sizes, colours, power

Specifying your build

What kinds of trailers do you build?
Four lines. Food & concession trailers for street food, events and mobile catering. Disaster relief units — mobile kitchens, command posts, bunkhouses and restroom/shower trailers. Refrigerated trailers for cold storage and transport. And custom builds for anything that does not fit the first three, which is a good share of what we do.
What sizes do you build?
Recent builds run from 18 to 48 feet, with most landing between 24 and 30. Width is typically 8.5 feet. Goosenecks add a raised neck deck over the tow vehicle, which buys you floor space without adding towed length.
What colours can I get?
Colours on recent builds: Victory Red, Black, White, Deep Blue, Extreme Green, Snyder Orange, Charcoal Grey, Penske Yellow, Arizona Beige, Brandy Wine, Indigo Blue, Silver. The full colour card runs wider than that, so if you have a brand colour in mind, ask — matching your branding is the point of a custom build.
What generator options are available?
Recent builds have shipped with 11000 Watts Kubota, LP Onan 7K, 10,000 Watts Onan, Honda 7,000 Watt Generator, 13,500 Watts Durawatt, 20 KW, 7000 Watts, 21,000 Watts Kubota. Sizing follows your equipment list rather than the other way round, and it can vary on request — tell us what you are running and we will size the power to it.
Can I get air conditioning?
Yes. Most builds carry one or two roof units; we have fitted as many as 7 on a single trailer where the equipment load and the climate called for it.
Can I see the trailer before you build it?
Yes — that is what our build studio is for. Pick your line, size, colour, serving layout, kitchen and power and watch the trailer build itself in 3D, inside and out, then send the exact spec straight to our team as a quote request.
