Cattle Trailers for Sale in Flemington, New Jersey
Flemington is the seat of Hunterdon County, in the western New Jersey farm country along the Delaware River. Hunterdon and neighboring Warren and Sussex counties are the Garden State's strongest livestock region, with beef herds, dairies, equestrian farms, and a long-running county fair tradition, plus a growing group of farms selling grass-fed beef to New York and Philadelphia buyers.
Many New Jersey farms are small, on hilly or rolling ground, and owners often haul into Pennsylvania for sales and across state lines for feed and breeding stock.
Dense Traffic, Heavy Salting, and Humid Summers
New Jersey treats its roads aggressively in winter, and Route 31, Route 202, I-78, and I-287 are salted often. Summers are humid and wet enough that trailers parked on grass stay damp. Paint will not stand up to that for long; chips become rust. Hot dip galvanizing leaves zinc on every surface, so a scratch from a gate or gravel does not become a rust problem, and the heavy seam-welded frame holds up to constant highway miles.
How Star Manufacturing Trailers Are Built
- 5/16" thick, 3x5 heavy angle frame — seam welded, not stitch welded, for a rigid frame that resists flexing and cracking
- Full hot dip galvanized finish — the entire trailer is submerged in molten zinc after fabrication, so every surface is protected
- Laser cut components — tabbed and slotted for a precision fit and consistent, tight welds
- Sizes from 14' to 40' — bumper-pull and gooseneck configurations for small farms up to commercial loads

What size trailer is common in Hunterdon County?
Many farms choose 16'-24' bumper-pulls or goosenecks, large enough for a few head plus room to grow.
What makes a Star Manufacturing trailer different from a typical dealer-lot stock trailer?
Most stock trailers are painted, stitch-welded, and built from lighter tube. Ours use a 5/16" thick 3x5 heavy angle frame that is seam welded, laser-cut tabbed-and-slotted parts for a precise fit, and a full hot dip galvanized finish.
