4-Star's
History:
In April of 1984, four men set out
to fulfill their dream. The four
men, from which the 4-Star logo
came, had a vision of a superior
trailer carrying the 4-Star name.
After about four months, one of the
partners decided to sell out; in
1990, another partner retired.
Today, the owners and employees
continue to guide 4-Star with
innovative concepts and ideas.
 Holding
a major portion of the trailer
market, 4-Star now employees well
over 200 people. Always continuing
to improve and with the company-wide
philosophy of maintaining superior
engineering and quality workmanship,
every new 4-Star has the same
structural integrity as the first
4-Star. It is this belief that will
keep 4-Star a force within the
industry for years to come.
The Trailers:
With the growing number of companies
building only production trailers,
4-Star has maintained its belief
that every person is different,
every load of stock is different,
therefore every trailer should be
different. Although every 4-Star is
different in its design, all 4-Star
Trailers are built with the same
principles of strength, durability,
and craftsmanship. Even standard
4-Star models were designed to make
a useable trailer available for
customers, but we understand that no
one knows you or your cargo better
than you.
 Back
in 1984, the owners of 4-Star knew
they had to build a strong trailer
for two very important reasons.
First of all, since every trailer
was going to be custom built and
potentially very different from the
next, a strong core design had to be
developed. This core, which can
still be found in every 4-Star,
allows customers to build the
trailer that fits their specific
needs.
The second reason was somewhat
simpler: aluminum trailers were
still a novelty. People did not
want to believe that aluminum was
superior to steel. People believed
that the lighter weight aluminum
trailers would not hold up as well
the traditional steel trailers.
Therefore, 4-Star Trailers not only
had to be lighter than the bulky
steel trailers, but as strong if not
stronger. With the obvious
maintenance factors heavily in favor
of aluminum trailers, 4-Star helped
pave the way for not only its own
niche in the market, but for the
entire trailer industry itself.
Where aluminum trailers being
superior is now an afterthought, at
4-Star we take great pride in
knowing that we helped changed the
face of the trailer industry.
