For a brief spell, this custom trailer became a permanent resident in Hamilton’s big bay manufacturing area. At 162 inches wide and 312 inches long, there wasn’t exactly a discreet corner to tuck it into.
And, honestly, a project tied to nuclear site remediation was never going to be small to begin with.
While we can’t share all the top-secret details, we can tell you this: Hamilton built two of these custom trailers for a government customer overseeing the deactivation of a nuclear facility. The central challenge involved segmentation: carefully dismantling, downsizing and compacting material safely throughout the remediation process.
That kind of work leaves very little room for compromise.
Hamilton engineered the trailer with a 65,000-pound capacity equipped with four-wheel steering to improve maneuverability despite its massive footprint. Press-on polyurethane wheels provide durability under extreme loads, while a loop-style towing tongue gives the setup the muscle needed for controlled transport.
Around the perimeter, the trailer features evenly spaced lashings (or as some call D-rings) and a three-inch angled lip designed for additional load retention. Every detail supports the same mission: keeping cargo secure and stable during transport in an environment where “good enough” never survives the safety meeting.
And then there’s the detail that says everything you need to know about the scale of the build: the trailer required oversized load escort vehicles—flashing lights and all—during shipment to the customer.
Productivity is impressive. But productivity with an escort? That’s industrial-grade efficiency.
