Buckner Trailers 205-467-3903
CAREERS AT BUCKNER

We're always looking for good hands.

People build careers in this shop and retire out of it. If you take pride in your work and want it to mean something, we want to know who you are — whether we've got an opening this week or not.

WHY THIS SHOP

The work is yours here

We've been in the same building since 2010 — the one that housed the original Liddell Trailers plant. Some of the men who built trailers here under the Liddell name are still on the crew today. Several others finished out their careers here and retired from this shop. That's not an accident, and it's the thing we're proudest of.

This is a shop where you'll know which trailers are yours. We do our own fabrication, our own machining, our own paint — nothing gets farmed out, which means you'll learn more here than at a place that subs out half the job. Nobody's a number. If you do good work, everybody in the building knows it, starting with the man who owns it.

WHERE WE COULD USE YOU

Four sides of the shop

No openings posted right now — we hire when the right person shows up, and we'd rather know about you before we need you. Experience helps, but it isn't the whole story. Show up willing and we'll teach you the rest.

01

Fabrication & Welding

Cutting, fitting, and laying the bead on frames, decks, goosenecks, and full custom builds. If you can read a print and hold a tolerance, we want to talk to you.

02

Repair & Refurbishing

Brakes, axles, suspension, landing gear, wiring, air systems — taking trailers that other shops turned away and putting them back on the road.

03

Parts

Working the counter and the shelves, and chasing down the hard-to-find pieces. The job is knowing what a customer needs before they finish describing it.

04

Office & Admin

Quotes, scheduling, billing, and being the voice on the phone. Our customers get treated like neighbors, because most of the time they are one.

GET IN TOUCH

Tell us who you are

This isn't a formal application — it's a short introduction so we know you're out there. A resume is optional and most people don't send one. Tell us a little about yourself and we'll take it from there.

New to the trade? Say so. Some of the best hands in this building started here green and learned it from the men working beside them. We'd rather have the right person and teach them the work.

If it looks like a fit, we'll call you and ask you to come by. Everything official happens in person, here at the shop.

Rather do it the old-fashioned way? Come see us at 100 Industrial Drive, Mon–Fri 7:00am–3:30pm, or call 205-467-3903.

Trouble attaching a file? Email it to drew@bucknertrailer.com instead.

PDF, Word, or a photo of it. Under 8MB.

Goes straight to Drew and Byron. We read every one of these ourselves, and we'll get back to you during shop hours — Mon–Fri, 7:00am–3:30pm.
