Home / About us

A family business built on steel tipping trailers

For more than 35 years we’ve been building, refurbishing and supplying tipping trailers from our Nottinghamshire workshop, for hauliers right across the UK.

Who we are

Professional, experienced and specialists in tippers

Draycott Commercials is a family-run business. We specialise in tipping trailers: building new ones, refurbishing used ones, selling stock trailers, and hiring them out on long and short-term arrangements.

Over the years we’ve built a reputation for doing the job properly. That means strong, practical trailers made from full Hardox 450 steel, honest advice on what you actually need, and support that doesn’t stop once the trailer leaves the yard.

Because we do the work in our own workshop, we stay in control of the quality, the timings and the price, and you deal with the people building your trailer.

Flexible to your timings

We work around your needs, whether you need something done quickly or you’re planning ahead. We’ll be straight with you about how long it will take.

Built to last

Full Hardox 450 bodies, robust sheeting and four-cell weighing as standard. We build trailers we’d be happy to put our own name on, because we do.
