🐎 More Than Just Horse Floats – Take a Tour of Our Factory.

When people hear Thoroughbred, they usually just think horse floats. And yes, we build some of the best in the country. But there's so much more happening inside our workshop.

We've put together a tour showing the true diversity of what we do here – and we think you'll be surprised.

Inside the factory you'll find:
• Truck repairs and servicing
• Paint work and refinishing
• Custom builds from the ground up
• Agricultural machinery modifications
• Engineering and fabrication
• Insurance repairs
• And yes, our world-class horse floats

We've got the skills, the equipment, and the team to take on projects most workshops wouldn't touch. If it's metal, mechanical, or custom, chances are we can build it, fix it, or make it better.

Whether you're a farmer needing machinery modified, a truckie needing repairs, or someone with a custom project in mind – we're the team to call.

Watch the tour and see for yourself.

We asked Brayden to make a video showcasing our floats.

He made ASMR instead.

Armed with a fork, a microphone, and absolutely zero shame, he's here to whisper sweet nothings about Thoroughbred Floats directly into your ears.

Turn your sound up. You're welcome.

📍From Concept to Reality – A Custom Built Race Car Trailer.

This is what happens when a client comes to us with a vision and a dream.

We sat down with him, designed the trailer together, and then brought that vision to life – every detail, every measurement, every feature built to his exact specifications.

This custom race car trailer is the result: a purpose-built solution that fits his needs perfectly because it was designed around them.

Have you got a dream trailer in mind?

Whether it's for racing, commercial use, a specialised work setup, or something completely unique – our team has the skills, experience, and workshop to make it happen.

We don't just sell trailers. We design, engineer, and custom build solutions from the ground up. You bring the idea. We bring it to life.

Get in touch with the team to discuss your project.

✨ From ‘Olive’… to our biggest beauty! ✨

This gorgeous big grey beauty headed off to her new home this afternoon, and this one feels a little extra special. ❤️

Her owner has been part of the Thoroughbred family for many years, starting with her beautiful float Olive, then moving up to something a little bigger… and now she’s stepped into our 3 Horse VXXL. We absolutely love watching our clients’ floats evolve with them over the years!

And this one is seriously packed with goodies, front storage box, rear lift-up door, wardrobe and shelving, overhead cover rack, swing-out tack box, pantry, sink and water system, gas hob, fold-out single bed, large battery system and, of course, a bed pod 😀

Custom built, beautifully finished and ready for plenty of adventures ahead.

Thank you for choosing Thoroughbred again, there’s something pretty special about building not just one float for a client, but being part of their journey through the years. 🐴❤️

Safe travels, big grey beauty!
