Make your brand stand out with a professional, flexible space that can travel wherever your customers are.
Exhibition trailer and hospitality unit hire from TCM Trailers gives businesses a flexible and cost-effective way to create a professional presence at trade shows, showgrounds, county shows, agricultural events and exhibitions across the UK.
Our extensive hire fleet includes trailers for exhibitions, promotions, roadshows, hospitality and events, with options to suit everything from compact pitches to large-scale corporate hospitality.
Choose from small 4.3m exhibition trailers, ideal where pitch space is limited, through to impressive 7m hospitality units offering spacious seating areas, kitchen facilities and storage – creating the perfect environment for welcoming customers, holding meetings, entertaining guests and networking with clients.
TCM Trailers works with more than 150 clients, ranging from independent businesses to nationally recognised organisations and brands including Garic, JCB, Krone, Mercedes-Benz, RSPCA, Thames Water, the National Trust and the Peak District National Park.
Whether you need a trailer for one event, an entire show season or a multi-location campaign, our team can help you choose the right unit and create a setup that works for your brand, your visitors and your budget.
Tell us where you’re exhibiting and what you’d like to achieve, and we’ll help you find the right trailer for the job.
Our hire trailers are designed to make event days as straightforward as possible. There are no complicated key handovers or lengthy setup procedures – most of our trailers can be opened, set up and ready to use in less than five minutes.
We know that speed matters, particularly when you’re working to tight exhibition and event schedules. That’s why our trailers are designed for quick setup at the start of the day and an equally simple breakdown when the event is over.
Our trailers are secured using combination padlocks, so your nominated team members can access the unit without having to keep track of keys or arrange handovers.
Every hire trailer is supplied with an easy-to-follow trailer manual, explaining how to safely open, set up and close the unit.
If required, a member of the TCM Trailers team can also meet your staff on site and provide a full handover and training session, so everyone is confident using the trailer.
Every TCM unit is supplied with the appropriate safety equipment and documentation, including:
From delivery to breakdown, our aim is to make hiring a trailer simple, safe and hassle-free, leaving your team to concentrate on the event itself.
Most of our exhibition and promotional trailers are intentionally designed without fixed internal furniture, giving you the freedom to create a layout that works around your event, brand and objectives.
Whether you need a comfortable hospitality lounge, meeting space, reception area, product display or somewhere to welcome customers, the interior can be configured to suit you.
To make setting up your event even easier, we have a selection of furniture and accessories available free of charge with your trailer hire, subject to availability.
Options include leather sofas and chairs, reception desks, room dividers, bench seating with storage, leaflet racks, artificial plants and more.
Our aluminium bistro-style tables and chairs are also included free of charge and can be positioned either inside the trailer or outdoors to extend your hospitality or visitor space.
We can also provide a range of additional event equipment for a small extra charge, helping you create a complete setup without having to source everything from multiple suppliers.
Options include patio heaters, fridges, Tassimo hot drinks machines, external ground covering and walkways, planters, pop-up marquees, parasols and more.
Power, Generators & Digital Screens
We can provide everything you need to keep your trailer powered and your content on display throughout your event.
Where an on-site power supply is available, we provide electrical hook-up leads free of charge with your trailer hire. If power isn’t available at your location, we can also supply 1kVA, 2kVA or 3kVA Honda silent generators to suit your requirements.
Bring your branding, promotional videos and digital content to life with our range of screens available for hire.
We offer 20-inch and 43-inch digital screens, as well as LCD flatscreen TVs.
Screens can be incorporated into one of our exhibition, event or promotional trailers, or hired separately for indoor exhibitions, retail activations, conferences and promotional events.
Speak to our team about your event and we can recommend the most suitable power and display setup for your requirements.
Need catering or refreshment facilities as part of your trailer hire? We offer a range of flexible options to make your event setup simple.
If your chosen hire trailer doesn’t have a fitted kitchen, we can provide a compact kitchen pod that can be temporarily installed in many of our trailers for the duration of your hire.
For a simpler refreshment solution, our hospitality packs are ideal for keeping your team and guests supplied with hot drinks throughout the day. Options include instant hot water dispensers, drinks supplies and Tassimo hot drinks machines, providing a quick and convenient setup without the need for a full kitchen.
Make your trailer impossible to miss with our full graphics and branding service. Whether you’re looking for simple branded panels or a complete vinyl transformation, we can help create a trailer that feels completely tailored to your brand or campaign.
For a cost-effective option, branding starts from £390 + VAT for the two wing panels positioned either side of the front opening. Your artwork is printed onto durable 5mm Foamex panels, which can be removed and reused.
If you’re planning to hire a trailer for several shows or events, we can store your branded panels between hires, making this a particularly cost-effective option for repeat campaigns.
For maximum visual impact, we can also arrange a full or partial vinyl wrap of your chosen trailer.
We’ll provide all the panel dimensions your graphic designer needs to create the artwork, before arranging for the graphics to be printed and professionally fitted prior to delivery.
From a simple logo to a complete branded takeover, our team can help you choose the right option for your budget, event and campaign.
