Our Core Principles
From honest conversations about pricing to dependable support and workmanship you can trust, our core principles shape how we work, how we build, and how we serve customers nationwide.
Workmanship Built to Last a Lifetime
With our motto, "Where Workmanship Lasts a Lifetime," we promise reliable products built with the value and strength needed to last years and years without committing your time and money into multiple repairs.
Service and Support You Can Rely On
When it comes to customer service, Alum-Line always goes the extra mile. We make sure your calls and emails are responded promptly to from a professional. Not only do we always have staff on hand to take care of our customers, but we also have a fully stocked parts department, a full service shop for repairs and installations, and a five year workmanship warranty—a repair form is even available online.
Decades of Growth Backed by Nationwide Reach
Since its beginning in 1986, Alum-Line has realized a steady growth in all aspects of its operation. To keep pace with the increased demand, Alum-Line has added additional manufacturing space 24 of the last 38 years. Total "under roof" facilities are now at more than 120,000 square feet. Not only has Alum-Line expanded its manufacturing space but they have also developed nationally. The increased sales have been a result of adding more dealers, with a total of over 200 across the nation.
Custom Builds Mean Custom Pricing
One of the biggest questions we get is, "Where are your prices listed?!" Unfortunately, we can't list any prices here for a majority of our products. The reason being is that so much of what we make is custom, and every product is different. An additional door, shark-hide, or extra features can greatly change the price of each trailer, truck body, or other equipment.
But no worries! Our knowledgeable sales staff is always available and happy to help get you an idea of a price for something you are looking for. Just call our number and we'll be happy to work on a price based on what exactly you are looking for. We look forward to supplying you with a great trailer.
