How To Build a LOW QUALITY, CHEAP Grooming Trailer.

February 26, 2010 By: admin Category: Trailer Basics

GT Grooming Trailers aren’t the cheapest, they’re just the best!

While most grooming trailer conversion companies built their niche as selling the “cheapest” grooming trailers, we built our reputation by providing the best built trailers on the market.  There are some things that the cheap conversion companies practice to ensure having the lowest quality mobile salons.  Some are:

1. Don’t include needed items such as trailer brakes.

2. Include a “stainless steel” tub that LOOKS like quality, but is actually very thin, flimsy, needs calk to keep watertight, and will ultimately fail.

3. Install a cheap “apartment window” air conditioner instead of a quality unit designed for the application.

4. Use cheap cargo cam-locking doors instead of RV style doors.

5. Advertise “waterproof” vinyl floors but fail to describe how they are not waterproof where it matters; along the walls.  While GT spends about $1,000 waterproofing the floors, low quality grooming trailers have virtualy no protection over the subfloor.

6. Use an electric water heater (or no water heater) instead of a propane water heater.

7. Install a “portable” generator instead of a quality RV or commercial generator designed (and warranted) for a mobile application.

8. Use “big box hardware store” cabinetry that will brake, mildew, and rot in a mobile grooming environment.

9. Include low quality items such as small water tanks, “price point” trailer shells from corner lots, or inferior plumbing components.

10.  ”Frame” the tub and cabinets with wood or other unprotected materials.

This list was too easy, and just scrapes the surface!

Great GT Grooming Trailer Testimonial!

This latest testimonial was fun to read!  It came from Emily’s Wags and Whiskers.  Purchasing an all-wether mobile pet grooming trailer was really important to her.  Clearly, she was satisfied.  This was about the 10th black trailer GT has converted for pet grooming.  I must say, with a black truck the salon looks great!

The grooming trailer is AWESOME!!!  All that we have hoped for and then some!! Can’t explain the awesomeness of the trailer. Even in the cold it is not a problem!

Just wanted to let our customers know what Kim, our master groomer, has been up to lately.  As some of you know, she’s quite an artist!  She has been making hand-crafted jewelry for some time and has decided to put her designs on-line.  She has a website called “Shop At Charmed” where you can see the different themes she has come up with.  If you enjoy handcrafted jewelry, please give her store a tumble and let us know what you think!
