Every PRBB trailer is backed by a 12-month warranty on components manufactured by PRBB, together with dedicated after-sales support to keep your trailer operating reliably.

Whether you need technical advice, replacement parts or warranty assistance, our after-sales team is only a phone call away. You can also contact your PRBB sales representative, who will gladly assist or connect you with the appropriate support team.

PRBB transfers the original manufacturer’s warranties for purchased components—including axles, suspensions, landing legs and braking systems—subject to the respective supplier’s warranty terms.

To maintain warranty cover, the first 10,000 km service must be completed by PRBB, and all warranty inspections and repairs must be carried out at our facility. Please refer to our full Warranty Terms and Conditions for complete details.

At PRBB, we believe in standing right next to you and your trailer. Our first priority is always to help get you back on the road safely and with as little downtime as possible.

During the 12-month warranty period, our after-sales team will assess the issue and work with you to determine the fastest and most appropriate solution. Warranties on purchased components are passed through from their respective manufacturers, and we assist in coordinating these claims where applicable.

Major structural repairs and warranty work are generally carried out at our factory, where our experienced team is equipped to restore your trailer to PRBB standards.

Beyond the warranty period, we continue to support our customers whenever we can. While repairs outside the warranty are considered on a case-by-case basis, our commitment to quality and long-term customer relationships means we’ll always strive to provide the best possible assistance.

PRBB offers one of the industry’s shortest manufacturing lead times. When we commit to a delivery date, you can plan with confidence knowing your trailer will be ready as promised. Trailer delivery on time, 100% of the time.

Not in the traditional sense. PRBB designs and manufactures a comprehensive range of proven trailers, each engineered to deliver the optimum balance of payload, durability and reliability for its intended application.

We standardise our products so our customers don’t have to compromise on quality, delivery or performance. Rather than reinventing every trailer, we continually refine our designs based on years of engineering experience, real-world operating data and customer feedback for each type of trailer. This enables us to manufacture consistently high-quality trailers with industry-leading lead times and proven performance.

For fleet customers with specialised operational requirements, we welcome the opportunity to meet and understand their operations. Our engineering team will work closely with them to recommend—or where appropriate, develop—the best PRBB solution for their application, while maintaining the integrity of our proven designs.
