Why choose Golden State Trailers ?
Professional Equipment
We use commercial-grade equipment for our daily operations. All components meet NSF standards where required. The equipment is selected to suit your menu, not based on a template. This ensures reliable performance, withstands heavy use, and helps you pass inspections.
Electric Connections
The food trailer's electrical system is designed to handle commercial-grade equipment. Proper wiring distribution ensures the stable operation of all systems. Wiring is concealed within the walls for safety and a clean appearance. The system complies with code requirements and is ready for inspection.
Fire Suppression System
The fire suppression system in the food trailer automatically responds to fire. Nozzles are installed above the equipment and activate instantly. The gas supply is shut off without manual intervention. This reduces risks during kitchen operations.
Wrapping
The food trailer will be fully wrapped using 3M materials. The graphics are applied seamlessly across the entire surface. A protective laminate ensures long-lasting color and appearance. This makes the trailer stand out and reinforces your brand.
Blueprints
Every food trailer starts with detailed blueprints. You’ll see the plans before production begins. The documentation is suitable for submission to regulatory agencies. This provides a clear understanding of what will be built.
Warranty
Every food trailer comes with a warranty covering the structure and systems. This provides peace of mind in your day-to-day operations. You know that support is available once you’re up and running. This reduces the risks involved in starting a business.

Victor H Rivas
Mike built our 20-foot food trailer last year, and it has exceeded our expectations. The quality of the workmanship and equipment is far superior to any other manufacturer in the area. It tows perfectly — even with heavy loads and at over 75 mph (shhh, don’t tell anyone!). The best investment we’ve ever made!
