Built for the Road Ahead: How Custom Toy Haulers Are Serving More Than Just Motorsports

When most people hear “toy hauler,” they picture dirt bikes and ATVs. But at Universal Trailers Inc, we’re building custom toy haulers for so much more.

Whether you’re a contractor needing tool storage, a mobile business owner on the go, or an adventurer looking for a basecamp, custom toy haulers are now some of the most versatile trailers on the market.

What Is a Toy Hauler—And Why Are They So Adaptable?

Originally designed to haul powersports vehicles, toy haulers feature a spacious rear garage with a built-in ramp door, plus livable or configurable space in the front.

But with modern upgrades, clients are now using them for:

  • Mobile workshops
  • Pop-up retail or tradeshow displays
  • Film gear haulers
  • Art studios and tattoo trucks
  • Pet boarding and grooming units
  • Overland expedition setups
  • Contractor tool trailers with living quarters

And the best part? They’re fully customizable to your layout, brand, and lifestyle.
