Trailer Work at Your Yard or the Roadside

Lights out on one side, brakes dragging, or a bearing running hot? Trailers fail at the connections and the wear points, and both can be checked where the trailer stands.

Faults Traced Properly

A lighting fault is usually a ground or a corroded pin, not the whole harness. We find it before anything is cut.

Complete Trailer Repair

Electric and air brakes, lighting, wiring, bearings, hubs, couplings and jacks, all handled on site.

Our Trailer Repair Process

Trailer work is about finding the real fault rather than replacing a harness and hoping. We test the connection first, check the wear parts while we are under there, and load test the brakes before the trailer goes back to work.

Tell Us the Trailer

Call with the trailer type, the axle count and the fault: lights, brakes, a hot hub or a coupling problem. We come to your yard, driveway or the roadside anywhere in Memphis.

Test the Connections

We check the plug and the grounds first, since most lighting faults live there, then move to the brake controller feed, the magnets or the air lines depending on what the trailer runs.

Repair and Load Test

Parts go on, the wiring is sealed properly against water, and the brakes are tested with the trailer loaded so you know they hold before it goes back out.

Why Memphis Operators Call Us for Trailer Work

A trailer with one brake working is a safety problem, not an inconvenience. We come to the trailer, test both sides, and tell you what the hubs and bearings look like while we are under there.

Freight moves through Memphis constantly, and trailers take the worst of it. Short yard shunts leave brakes barely warmed, long interstate runs then ask them to work hard, and the standing water on yard surfaces after a summer storm gets into every connection and every hub seal. Corrosion at the plug and water in a bearing are the two faults we see most, and neither announces itself until something stops working.

Trailer work belongs under our Truck Repair Shop Memphis TN service. For jobs on the truck itself rather than the trailer, Repair Service Memphis TN covers the general repairs a working vehicle needs.

What We Get Called Out For

The trailer jobs Memphis operators call 800-395-4908 about most often, and what the visit involves.

Lights out on one side. Nearly always a ground or a corroded pin in the plug. We test the circuit rather than replacing a whole harness.

Trailer brakes weak or pulling to one side. Electric magnets, a controller setting or air pressure on the other side. We test both sides loaded before quoting.

Hub running hot. A bearing or seal. That one is checked immediately, because a hot hub does not get better by driving it further.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about trailer repair in Memphis, from what we handle on site to how we test brakes before the trailer goes back out.

Do you come to the trailer?

Yes. We work at your yard, your driveway or the roadside anywhere in Memphis, which matters with a trailer that is not safe to tow in its current state.

Can you fix trailer lights permanently?

We trace the actual fault, repair the connection and seal it against water rather than taping over a joint. That is the difference between a repair and a patch that fails in the next storm.

Do you work on air brakes as well as electric?

Yes, both. Tell us which the trailer runs when you call so we arrive with the right parts and test equipment.

How long does a trailer visit take?

A lighting fault is usually under an hour once traced. Brakes, hubs or bearings take longer, and we give you a time window before we start rather than afterwards.
