Websites for trailer and container sales: your trailers and containers on your own site within the hour, and the enquiry on your desk first

You already keep your trailers and containers up to date for the classified sites. The same feed can run a site you own, fast enough to pass Google's real-visitor speed test, where a farmer, builder or haulier finds the unit, sends the enquiry to you, and never sees a competitor's stock beside yours.

What it is like now

  • Stock is on a classified site with your competitors and on your own site nowhere.
  • New, used and hire all need showing and the site shows a phone number.
  • Delivery and haulage pricing is worked out by hand for every enquiry.

What we build for trailer dealers

  • New, used and hire stock with specs, capacities and prices
  • Delivery quoted by distance automatically
  • Finance and enquiry on every unit
  • Sold units kept as a track record

What it looks like in practice

Stock is on a classified site beside the competitors and on the dealer's own site nowhere; delivery pricing is worked out by hand for every enquiry. We list new, used and hire stock with specs, capacities and prices, quote delivery by distance automatically, put finance and enquiry on every unit, and keep sold units as a track record.

What a website costs for trailer and container sales

Most trailer dealers need the Growth tier, from €10,000, delivered in 6 weeks, paid 40% to start, 40% at staging sign-off, 20% at launch. That includes your trailers and containers fed from your own system, a page per unit, the filters your buyers use, enquiry capture with alerts, sector pages, structured data, built to score 100 on Google's speed test at launch, and your hosting, domain and code in your name.

After launch, most take the Managed care plan at €195 a month: hosting, SSL, daily backups, software updates, uptime and security monitoring, 2 hours a month shared between content edits and development (no rollover), a monthly report in plain English and a one working day response, month to month with 30 days' notice. If the site you have now only needs its faults fixed rather than replacing, single fixes start at €175 and the free audit names them.

Typical ticket for a unit in your trade is €1,500 to €60,000; one enquiry that comes to you instead of to the classified sites covers a lot of website. The full menu, with the five-year comparison, is on the pricing page.

Questions trailer dealers ask

Delivery is a different price to every yard.
Quoted automatically from the customer's postcode against your haulage rates, shown before they enquire.
We hire as well as sell.
Hire stock with rates and availability sits beside the sales stock, with a hire enquiry that collects dates and site.
Do we need photos of every trailer?
Yes, and the site makes it easy: upload from a phone in the yard, resized and watermarked automatically.

Faults we see most on trailer dealers sites

Before anyone talks about a rebuild, the audit usually finds a few of these. Each has its own page with the fix and the fixed price, and none of them needs a new website.

All eighteen faults

Check your own site first

Free, on screen in seconds. The faults a farmer, builder or haulier actually hits on your homepage, and what each one costs you.

Free, no call. The first findings come up in a few seconds and the full result in about half a minute. We load your site in a real mobile browser the way Google measures it, read your inner pages, your DNS, certificate, email records and sitemap, follow your stock list to the pages for the things you actually sell, and show you the three worst things on screen.

Before you compare quotes

Five questions to ask anyone quoting you, and our answers

Where is the work actually done?
Here, by the person you are talking to. Nothing is passed to a white-label shop in another time zone without telling you, because nothing is passed anywhere.
Who can see my enquiry data, and under what agreement?
You, and us while we build or maintain it, under a written data-processing agreement. Your customers' details never leave infrastructure in your name.
What happens on day 31?
The same as day 1. Fixed-price builds carry a 90-day warranty on defects; care plans run month to month; nothing expires when the invoice clears.
Who owns the code, the hosting and the domain?
You do, from the first commit. Your repository, your hosting account, your registrar. Written into the quote. (The one exception is the monthly dealer plan, where the code passes to you when the 12-month minimum is complete.)
What does Google's own speed test say about it?
We build to score 100 on Google's mobile test and report the launch-day figure in writing; the final instalment is due when the written acceptance criteria are met, not on a score. ukcarimports.ie scored 88 on 10 October 2026 with real visitors passing all five Core Web Vitals. Run it yourself, on any page of the proof site.
