Anything Is Possible

Over the years, we have produced hundreds of trailers for customers in diverse industries. Often, clients come to us with an idea of what they want but don’t know whether or not it is achievable. Blackburn Trailers have been producing bespoke trailers for over 25 years. We regularly say to clients that anything is possible - come to us with an idea and we’ll turn it into reality.



New Trailers In Stock

As well as manufacturing bespoke exhibition and display trailers, we also carry a number of standard units in stock and we’ve recently added a couple of new trailers to our list. All of our stock trailers are available for immediate collection or delivery anywhere in the UK and graphics can be supplied for individual company branding or for products.



ITV Outside Broadcast Unit

ITV came to us with a brief: We need a highly mobile outside broadcast unit which can be broken down at the drop of a hat, provide us with all the camera angles we need of the British Touring Car Championship and keep Steve Rider out of the summer rain. We got straight onto it…



How We Won The Ashes

It was the Summer of 2005. England were about to take on the mighty Australia, the undisputed world champions of cricket. Everyone agreed that England needed something special to win the Ashes back. A secret weapon. They found it in a small corner of West Sussex…



New Stock Trailers For Sale

As Britain recovers from the heaviest snowfall seen for over 18 years, we’ve seen an unexpected benefit of the chilly weather.

easyJet Babes Get Steamy In Mobile Sauna

Brrrr! It’s a bit nippy outside but that didn’t stop the girls from easyJet from getting steamy in our mobile sauna on the streets of London. This 5 metre long PR trailer comes complete with lighting coals, internal benches and smoke effects and is now available to hire.



Unusual Snack Bar Refit

Here at Blackburn Trailers we are used to getting unusual requests. After all, if you tell people that you can build them anything, folks tend to take you at your word! So we shouldn’t really have been surprised when we were asked to transform a Second World War American truck into a fully functional snack bar.



Kompak Build Aircraft Carrier

This Kompak light aircraft carrier was potentially fairly straight forward in principle. The aircraft, a Europa, has a wing span of a little over 8m and all up weight of approx 350 kgs not forgetting the loading ramps and winch. However the tricky bit was to make the whole lot legal behind a Vauxhall Astra!



Kompak Participate In Great Britain Powerboat Race

The recent Round Great Britain Offshore Powerboat Race saw another Kompak brand product providing sterling service. With the prevailing winds and squalls from the south west, the commentators had a cosy vantage point inside the Kompak commentary trailer.



Spinnaker Tower Snack Kiosk

Stainless fronted bar and snack kiosk lands at base of the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouths Gunwharf Quays and starts trading immediately. Built to withstand the salty seas, Nelson would have approved the modern ship building materials used in its construction!
