Landoll Trailers: Innovation Since 1963
Landoll Company traces its roots to 1963, when Don Landoll and a partner opened Quick Service Welding in Marysville, Kansas. The company grew from a local welding and repair shop into a manufacturer serving transportation, agriculture, material handling, OEM, and government markets, with a long-standing emphasis on innovative design, manufacturing, and customer service.
Landoll’s trailer business took a major step forward in 1969 and 1970, when Don Landoll developed and introduced the traveling axle ground-loading trailer. Landoll describes that design as the backbone of its current trailer line. By the early 1980s, towing and recovery companies had become major customers for Landoll’s Model 317 trailer and Centerfold car carrier, cementing the brand’s connection to the towing industry.
Inside Landoll Trailer Manufacturing
Landoll’s official trailer virtual tour takes viewers through the company’s Marysville manufacturing facilities to show how a Landoll trailer is made. The tour complements Landoll’s broader manufacturing history, which includes investments in production capacity, powder coating, robotic welding, waterjet equipment, and other manufacturing technology over the company’s decades of growth.
Landoll Trailer Types for Towing, Recovery & Heavy Equipment Transport
Landoll’s trailer lineup covers multiple transport needs, from ground-loading equipment moves to detachable and traveling-tail applications. The right configuration depends on what you haul, how often you load from ground level, the weight and dimensions of the equipment you haul, and the environments in which the trailer will operate.
- Traveling axle trailers: use a moving undercarriage and tilting deck for low-angle, ground-loading applications. Landoll lists current traveling axle models across a wide range of capacities and applications.
- Detachable trailers: provide front-loading access for heavy equipment through a removable gooseneck.
- Traveling tail trailers: use a hydraulically traveling rear section to support loading and unloading applications where access and load angle matter.
- Specialized trailer configurations: include container, pintle-hitch, extendable, and other purpose-built options for different transport requirements.
Purpose Wrecker’s brochure library includes reference material for multiple Landoll trailer families and models, including 317/318, 330, 343, 440/455, 835/840, 850XT, 930/950, and the 345 pintle-hitch trailer.
Why the Landoll Traveling Axle Design Matters
Landoll says its traveling axle concept was invented by Don Landoll in 1969 and introduced as a ground-loading trailer in 1970. The design combines a traveling undercarriage with a tilting deck to create low loading angles, allowing equipment to be loaded from ground level without relying on traditional loading ramps in many applications.
Landoll currently positions traveling axle trailers for towing and recovery, rental, construction, heavy-equipment hauling, storage-container transport, and other uses. Its current traveling axle lineup spans capacities from 5 to 55 tons, giving you multiple options to match your trailer to the equipment you haul and the work you perform.

Choosing the Right Landoll Trailer for Your Operation
Start with the load and the job. A towing and recovery operator moving disabled vehicles may have different priorities than a contractor hauling construction equipment or a fleet transporting containers. Payload requirements, dimensions, loading method, load angle, maneuverability, axle configuration, deck length, and applicable weight regulations can all influence the right trailer choice. Purpose Wrecker can help you compare Landoll trailer families and identify which configurations deserve a closer look based on your application. For exact capacity, dimensions, weights, and options, confirm the current manufacturer specifications for the model you are considering before purchase.
