The day has finally come after designing this trailer for months and waiting even longer it finally arrived last week.

I went from a 6x12x 6’ tall to this 7.5x18 +Vx 7’ tall.

First picture is of the old trailer. When we found out the transporter was close to my house we tossed everything we could into the back and hauled tail home.

There still plenty to move into the trailer and onto the racks but it’s already been a pleasure having the extra space to work out of.

Congrats on a great trailer! I like the drop down ramp for easy access. 
 
Beautiful trailer.  Thoughtful layout.  Congratulations!

Sweet...or gob-smacked could be another descriptive term.  [big grin]

The interior lighting makes all the difference in the world.

That thing’s bigger than our house... [eek]

Love those Systainers with the red latches...now those are some serious tools.  [smile]
 
Thank you guys. I want to make a little walkthrough video once I get the rest of the crap inside it just for kicks.

I have the big stuff left to load it with; Erika, powered pump jacks, 12 and 24' stages, 12' 6" brake, 30' extension ladders and coffee maker. (because why not)

One of the nicest parts is the dual axles with electric brakes. I used to go through brakes on my truck every year or so with the old single axle but I can tell already that its the brakes on the trailer stopping my truck now rather than the other way around. I can't recommend the jump up to dual axles enough even on shorter trailers.
 
Great job ! looking forward to the walkthrough and finding out what the trap door is for
 
Where can I see more pictures of your van?  I like it and would like to get something like this.
 
I like how you setup a table to work inside the trailer.  And put the outside access compartments underneath the table.  7.5 feet tall.  1.5 feet floor to the ground based on the ramp picture.  2 feet tall rack on top.  Total of 11 feet tall trailer.  Is that OK where you are at?
 
way cool!  There is a guy I follow on YT and Instagram, Kyle Stumpenhorst, who did a video of his new trailer which is about the same size. Could have some ideas worth exploring. 

Trailer build out
