How a Branded Trailer Can Improve Your Business
Trailers are versatile pieces of equipment. Businesses can use a trailer to haul materials, transport goods and even to advertise. Adding trailer wraps to your vehicle and trailers can change the way people view your business and interact with you daily. When you are working with a branded trailer, you will see the benefits almost immediately. People will recognize your logo, become familiar with your business and won’t feel like they are being spammed with advertising.
Generally speaking, trailer wraps cost between a few hundred dollars for simple logos or slogans to a few thousand dollars if you are looking to wrap the entire vehicle. Trailer dealers can help provide a more accurate estimate if you want to know what putting your logo on your trailer will cost. Creating a branded trailer is fast and easy, and it can pay for itself quickly thanks to customer recognition and a sense of professionalism.
Free Advertising
Having a branded trailer is almost like having a portable billboard (and it’s true: billboards still work!). When you add your company logo, a slogan or even a photo of your team to a trailer, you’ll gain community recognition quickly without having to spend extra marketing money on ads, billboards or social media. Your branded trailer will do a lot of the heavy lifting for you.
The more your trailer is out in the community, the more recognition and advertising you’ll gain. It will create a lingering effect on your future customers that because they see your branded trailer frequently, you are in high demand and are a busy company who many people want to hire. Even if your trailer is sitting in a parking lot, you’ll have passive advertising for your brand for people driving by.
Design a vehicle wrap that catches the eye, turns some heads and is easily recognizable. Your logo is a great way to go, but any other branding colors or identifiers can give you some great advertising that will pay off time and time again.
Looks Professional
Think about it: a blank trailer and truck with nothing on it looks less professional and established compared to vehicles with wraps and branding on it. In business, no matter the industry, appearance matters. If your truck and trailer pull up without any branding, it could look like a stranger is approaching a customer, which can cause uncertainty. A branded trailer, on the other hand, instills confidence in the customer and lets them know you are here to help. Trailer wraps remove any doubt of who you are and why you are here.
This also helps further show that you have been around the block, you are experienced in your craft and you know what you’re doing. Every interaction with customers should be very intentional and professional. Having a branded vehicle helps build confidence, establishes your experience and further shares your brand with others.
Tips for a Branded Trailer
It isn’t enough to simply add trailer wraps to your fleet. The most effective way to brand your vehicles and see the benefits is to work with trailer dealers who know the ins and outs of branded trailers, as well as a graphic designer or team who can create an effective wrap that is eye-catching.
Here are some considerations for your vehicle wraps:
Keep it Simple
The more details and words you include, the harder it will be for people to quickly read and understand it.
Use Your Logo
Your logo is the easiest way to identify your business, and it can fit just about anywhere.
Use Your Colors
Keep your colors consistent and use the same ones you have on your site and other branding materials.
Add a Phone Number, Website or QR Code
If someone sees your trailer and wants to get in touch, give them a quick and easy way to find you. Just remember not to overdo it with too much information.

Every part of your business is an extension of your brand, from the people driving your fleet to what’s on the outside of your vehicles. Use trailers that work for your business. That includes using them for free advertising and brand recognition, as well as heavy duty hauling capabilities.
