Cattle Trailers in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin
Chippewa Falls sits just north of Eau Claire along US-53, anchoring Chippewa County's mix of dairy farms and beef cow-calf operations. The county's rolling farmland and small-town sale barns make it a steady livestock hauling market, with farm families relying on trailers that can handle both daily chores and longer hauls to auction or processing.
Northern Wisconsin Winters and Salted Highways
Chippewa County's winters are among the harder in Wisconsin, with US-53 and connecting county roads salted heavily for months at a stretch. That level of sustained exposure is hard on a painted trailer frame. Star Manufacturing trailers are fully hot dip galvanized — the entire trailer submerged in molten zinc, not just painted on the surface — so the whole frame stands up to Chippewa County's long, salted winters.

- 5/16" thick, 3x5 heavy angle frame, seam welded for durability

Serving Chippewa, Eau Claire, and Dunn County Farms
Chippewa Falls sits close enough to Eau Claire and Dunn County that many operations move stock across county lines to sale barns and dairy co-op facilities. Whether it's a dairy farm running a small beef side herd or a dedicated cow-calf operation, the frame needs to handle regular hauling on salted roads without breaking down.

Serving Chippewa Falls and Surrounding Farm Country
We work with dairy farms, beef cow-calf operations, and diversified family farms throughout Chippewa Falls and the surrounding northern Wisconsin farm belt. If you're comparing trailers sold locally, ask about frame gauge and finish — a heavier frame and true galvanized coating outlast painted steel by years given Chippewa County's long, heavily salted winters.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Chippewa Falls from Star Manufacturing's Wharton, TX shop?
About 1,120 miles, roughly a 16-17 hour drive. Out-of-state delivery to Wisconsin is routine for us.
Why does galvanizing matter for Chippewa County trailers?
Northern Wisconsin winters bring months of heavy road salt on US-53 and connecting county roads. A fully galvanized frame resists that corrosion far better than a painted surface coat.
What size trailer fits a typical Chippewa County farm operation?
Many family dairy and beef operations run 16'-24' trailers, while larger operations hauling to co-op facilities or auction commonly step up to 28'-32'.
