Wild West Trailers in Oklahoma City: Utility and Enclosed Options for Work and Hauling
Wild West Trailers is a mid-size independent dealer specializing in utility, enclosed, and specialty trailers rather than travel or recreational models, located to serve the Oklahoma City metro's construction, landscaping, and small-business hauling demand.
What Wild West Trailers actually stocks
The inventory focuses on work-oriented trailers: open utility models (4x8 through 8x16 footprints), enclosed cargo trailers, car haulers, gooseneck equipment trailers, and dump trailers. Models range from single-axle to tandem-axle, with payload capacity typically between 2,000 and 14,000 pounds depending on configuration. Most units are new or near-new, with occasional used inventory; the dealership does not carry RVs, travel trailers, or fifth-wheels.
New and used pricing, and how configurations drive cost
A new 6x12 single-axle enclosed cargo trailer typically runs $2,800 to $3,200 depending on door type (single vs. double) and floor material (wood vs. aluminum). Open utility trailers at 6x12 start around $1,400 to $1,800 new. Tandem-axle 8x16 enclosed models run $4,500 to $5,500. Used inventory costs 15 to 25 percent less than equivalent new units but availability varies seasonally; call to confirm current stock and pricing before visiting.
Pricing differences between open and enclosed reflect real functional gaps: enclosed trailers protect tools and materials from weather and theft but weigh more and have lower payload capacity relative to frame size. Open utility trailers maximize hauling capacity but require tarping and offer no security. A contractor choosing between them should compare actual load weight and frequency of overnight storage.
How Wild West Trailers compares to other Oklahoma City dealers
Sparks Trailers, also in the Oklahoma City area, carries a broader mix including some travel and recreational models alongside work trailers; they tend to stock higher-end gooseneck equipment trailers. For a buyer focused primarily on utility and enclosed work trailers in the sub-$5,000 range, Wild West Trailers typically has more selection at that price point and faster turnaround on common sizes.
Trailers Inc., another regional option, operates as a larger multi-location dealer and carries new and used across more categories but may have longer lead times on custom orders. Wild West Trailers suits buyers who want to see and compare models the same day without navigating a sprawling lot; choose a larger dealer if you need financing directly through their lender or want RV options in the same visit.
Ideal customers and poor fits
Wild West Trailers works well for contractors, landscapers, small business owners, and homeowners needing a one-time or occasional haul (moving equipment, hauling debris, transporting vehicles for sale). Buyers planning to use a trailer multiple days per week benefit from owning rather than renting, and the entry-level pricing supports that decision.
The dealership is a poor fit for someone seeking financing through an in-house credit department; most buyers arrange outside loans or pay cash. It is not the right stop for recreational or luxury travel trailer buyers.
First visit: what to expect and what to bring
Arrive during business hours with your truck's towing capacity (found in the owner's manual or door jamb sticker) and a clear idea of intended use (cargo type, typical distance, frequency). Staff will walk you through hitch compatibility and axle weight limits. If buying that day, bring a valid driver's license and proof of insurance; most sales require a deposit, typically 10 to 20 percent, with the balance due at pickup or delivery. Trailer registration in Oklahoma is handled through the dealership; allow 1 to 2 weeks for paperwork.
Hours, location, and logistics
Verification note: hours and phone number should be confirmed directly before visiting, as seasonal or staffing changes occur.
Wild West Trailers operates from a fixed lot location in the Oklahoma City metro. Parking is on-site and ample; you can walk the full inventory in 30 to 45 minutes. The dealership offers local delivery for a fee (typically $75 to $150 depending on distance) and can hitch a trailer to your vehicle on-site if you bring your truck. No trade-in program for damaged or unwanted trailers.
Wild West Trailers fills a practical gap in Oklahoma City's trailer market by holding common work-trailer sizes in stock and pricing them competitively for the contractor and small-business owner who cannot absorb dealer markup or wait weeks for delivery.
