TRAVIS BODY & TRAILER
Since 1989, Travis Body & Trailer, Inc. has built more than 15,000 trailers. Over this time their reputation for quality has resulted in a rapidly growing population of repeat customers. With manufacturing centralized in one facility and with their well-trained, loyal production staff, their customers know they’re driving out with the best-constructed, best-value trailer available, bar none.
Based in Houston, Texas, Travis holds true to age old, proven values. They take pride in everything they build. They believe their word and handshake to be their most valuable assets.
They are financially strong, stable and will be around for their customers when they’re ready for their next trailer. They have not forgotten what it was like in their early days. They know their success rests in relationships. They have not—and will not lose—that critical focus.
