LanChester Trailer Service Center

We are currently working on a project for another customer of ours.  He bought a new dump trailer from us a few years ago, and now he is in need of taller sides. We discussed with him the option to buy a new trailer special ordered with higher sides to haul more load, but we recommended that he not do that. We recommended that he allow us to build him custom side extensions to attach to his current trailer. This will solve his problem, and will allow him to carry more materials in the bed of the trailer. We did caution him, that this does not increase the weight rating, so his weight still needs to stay under the GVWR if the trailer when originally purchased. These are just pictures of the start of this project, once they are completed, I will post pictures of the final project, as well as, the savings this customer received.

Here are the before pictures with one of the side extensions already in place, they are faster than me and already had one piece on before I could snap a photo. 

This is the second reconstruction of a BrenderUp trailer. We purchased this trailer from a customer of ours in an undrivable condition. This trailer was a pile of parts. We were able to reconstruct this trailer and sell it to another customer of ours before it was even finished! The customer who purchased this trailer placed money down before this trailer was even finished based on the savings he would be receiving. We have new trailers on our lot like this selling for $11,775. We sold our customer this trailer after it was completely reconstructed for $7,500. This is a total savings of $4,275! He was one happy customer!

After:

A customer of ours from the Reinholds, Pennsylvania area, had a strong wind storm sweep through their property. During this wind storm man of their trees fell over. One of the trees hit their horse trailer. The limbs ripped through the roof and destroyed the jack. We were able to go to their property and look at the damage and develop a plan of attack on how to repair this trailer. We were able to bring this trailer back to our shop, and begin the process of making the trailer look like new again. After a few short weeks, the customer’s trailer was complete. Here are pictures that show the damage before the repair.

The customer was extremely pleased with the service she received from LanChester Trailer Supply, LLC. Here is a quote from her about her experience with us. “A straight wind storm knocked over more than 60 trees on our property; some of which landed on the roof and hitch of our Sundowner. Fortunately, LanChester was able to repair the trailer to look like new, and they even helped us work with our insurance company to get the repairs done in a timely manner.” – D.D. from Reinholds, Pennsylvania. Below are the pictures of their trailer after the repair was completed and the trailer was returned home.

We are busy preparing for the upcoming Timonium, Maryland horse world expo. The Horse World Expo will run Jan 21- 24, 2010.  We will be located in booth numbers 802 & 803 in the cow palace building. We will be bringing our newest trailer renovation project along. We took a 1991 BrenderUp Trailer and renovated the trailer by replacing the green wooden side walls with new white composite material. We then replaced a lot of hardware & accessories found on the trailer to make it a complete renovation. Please take time to stop by our booth and check out the trailer. We will be bringing some pieces from the trailer prior to the refurbishment; this will allow you to see how dramatic of a change this is. We will be handing out vouchers to receive a free quote, and will have brochures and business cards about all the services that LTSR3 provides. We look forward to meeting with you all and discussing how you can save money by restoring, renovating, upgrading or modifying your trailer; rather than purchasing a new one.

Here at LanChester Trailer we are beginning to prepare for the New Year. We have made several changes around here that you will notice very quickly. We have started a new website www.LTSR3.com . This site is geared specifically to our customers in providing ideas for Trailer Renovation, Trailer Repair, & Trailer Reconstruction. The goal of our company is to provide you options. We want to be able to provide you with the most cost effective option available. If you need more space or another stall on your current trailer, and a new trailer comes in at a price of $12,000; however, you could fix or modify your current trailer for under $3,000, we want you to know that. We want you to be provided with every option available to meet your hauling needs, and we are going to do that. We will be adding more pictures and descriptions of additional repairs, upgrades, and modifications as we do them to provide you with ideas and showcase our trained mechanics finished work. 

We will still be maintaining our trailer sales website as well. This site will remain the same: www.LanChesterTrailer.com . Our staff is available to answer any questions you may have regarding a new or used trailer purchase. We also list all our available in stock inventory online at our sales website for your convenience. If you have a question on any unit you see listed, please call or shoot us an e-mail with the stock number, and we would be happy to provide you with any additional information on that unit. (800) 428-8415 or Info@LanChesterTrailer.com 

Lastly, we will be working through the holiday season, but we do have a few changes to our operating schedule. We will be closed Friday, December 25th in observance of Christmas Day, and we will also be closed January 1, 2010 in observance of New Year’s Day. We will be here every other day through the holiday season according to our normal operating schedule. We wish you and your families a very Happy Holiday Season.
