Safer Building Materials

At Double D Trailers, our horse trailers are designed with several unique features that place them head and shoulders above other horse trailer sales dealers. Many of these advantages are due to the materials we use in the building process.

> Take a Closer Look at The Advantages of These Materials

Lightweight Horse Trailers

If you are like "most" people you want something that is lightweight, doesn't rust and safe for your horses.  While aluminum built horse trailers have been around since the early 80's, science and technology have advanced to offer materials that are far superior.  

Aluminum works well for cookware and solar panels as a great heat conductor. So, it makes sense that it often results in trailers that are excessively hot for your horses.  Plus the weak strength of this metal is not suitable for the frame, floors, and ceiling of your trailer. You may want to consider the alternatives.

Our Guarantee to You

How sure are we that you will receive your trailer in satisfactory condition with all selected options in place and ready to roll? 100% sure! That’s why we put this guarantee in writing.

If there’s something wrong, we will make it right. We will order you another trailer with the corrected changes at no cost to you. If needed, we will give you a full refund on your money. The last thing we want to do is to sell a trailer to someone who doesn't want it. It makes everyone's life miserable. Read the terms and conditions below.

Terms and Conditions of Our Money Back Guarantee

Why would you refuse delivery on your trailer? When your new trailer arrives you may refuse delivery only if it isn't built to the details that you signed off on in your invoice/contract and drawing. 

An example of an applicable reason to refuse delivery would be if you ordered a trailer with an oversized stall, and the trailer arrives with a standard sized stall. Examples of unacceptable reasons to refuse delivery would be the dividers are too heavy, the windows are too tall, the ramp is too heavy, etc. If you have any reservations on these sorts of things, we recommend you take advantage of our buyer connect program. This will put you in touch with a current owner for you to talk with them and work out a time to see their trailer so you can touch, feel, etc.  

Accepting delivery: Once your new trailer is delivered and the driver leaves after their walkthrough, this confirms your purchase and completes your transaction as the new owner. If something is wrong or a correction needs to be made, like a flat tire or broken window, your bumper to bumper warranty will take care of this so it is not a reason to refuse delivery. Just let us know of the issue, and we will make the necessary arrangements to resolve quickly and easily.

Custom Trailers: Custom or "unusual" trailer designs are not eligible for a refund and cannot be returned. Examples of this would be a trailer specified to be a cart/carriage hauler. 

Please note that prior to delivery, we will send out at least 30 photos to you detailing every aspect of your trailer. Your trailer doesn't leave for delivery until you approve the photos.

Payment Terms: Standard deposits are required when ordering a trailer with balance due before delivery as stated on your order.

What the money back guarantee does not cover:

  1. You can't change your mind after you have placed your order and expect a full refund of your deposit. If you cancel your finalized order prior to production, you will only be eligible for up to a 50% refund of your total deposit, which can be applied to a future order if placed within 12 months of cancellation. 50% of the deposit will be the maximum eligible refund amount regardless of changes in personal circumstances, finances, buyer's remorse, etc. If you cancel your order once production has started, your deposit will not be refunded under any circumstances.

  2. Not accepting your trailer due to reasons other than the trailer not matching the details that you signed off on in your invoice/contract and drawing is unacceptable. In other words, buyer’s remorse, change in personal circumstances, etc. are not acceptable terms for a refund.

  3. Circumstances that are not related to Double D Trailers or your new trailer are not eligible for the money back guarantee.

What you should know about buying trailers long distance

Most horse trailer dealers do not have the experience, the knowledge, and the wherewithal to have a trailer shipped from the factory direct to you. For most horse trailer dealers, standard operating procedure (SOP) is to have the horse trailers shipped to their lot, and then (hopefully) they inspect for things not working right, for things missing, sharp edges from bad welds, etc., and most importantly, to check axles, brakes, floor boards, frame and structure (manufacturers generally don't check wheel bearings and axles before they go out.)

With the advent of the Internet, a lot of dealers are thinking, "Wow, I can give a customer a good price because I can ship it right to them without having to fool with it, or service it."

This can't happen when you get your Double D Trailer. Since all Double D Trailers are built right here and are shipped long distance, straight from the factory, we have become professionals at shipping. We check out every specific aspect of the trailer, from one end of the trailer to the other. This includes all lighting, structure, bolts, axles, tire pressure, bearings, and the works. Then the inside is swept clean of all debris, wire scraps, stray bolts, etc. After that's completed, all options, and placement of your special requirements are checked to be as they should be, and installed in the right place. This ensures that you get what you ordered, and that the trailer is safely ready to roll upon arrival.

What if I need service or warranty repair later on?

Most horse trailer dealers are used to selling in their immediate area. So again, they do not understand, or are not set up to service you over long distances. And even if a dealer does have a repair center (many do not) they usually want you to come to them. And, as you well know, full service horse trailer dealers are almost never right down the street - sometimes not even in the same county.

At Double D Trailers, we have designed, tested and implemented a long distance service program that serves you better than most dealers. We have someone on-call, Monday through Friday, ready to solve all your service and warranty needs. A horse trailer is basically a box on wheels; all service can be done at your nearby body shop. If it is a living quarter problem, we work with RV centers directly to correct any trouble that may arise.

We work directly with you and/or the body shop/RV center on repairs and maintenance, shipping them parts, faxing and/or emailing them instructions. Our goal is to get your trailer back on the road fast. If it is a warranty problem, we will determine this quickly and we are glad to pay the shop directly or reimburse you for the bill immediately. Best of all, body shop/RV centers do this for a living (whereas trailer dealers often do it out of necessity) so body shops/RV centers tend to get things done professionally, and fast.

Our goal is to make your buying experience with Double D Trailers a wonderful experience.

Nationwide Delivery

Our drivers will deliver the trailer at your convenience, not ours - including after hours, Saturday or Sunday.  And whereas many drivers are anxious to drop it and run, our drivers will take the time to make sure you are comfortable with your new trailer before they leave. Of course they are bonded and insured so if anything happens to your trailer on the way there, it's our liability and responsibility, not yours
