Cattle Trailers in Pampa, Texas
Pampa is the seat of Gray County, sitting along US-60 in the northeastern Texas Panhandle between Amarillo and the Oklahoma line. The area blends cow-calf ranching on native grass with proximity to the Panhandle's feedyard corridor running through Amarillo, Hereford, and Dumas, giving Pampa-area ranchers easy access to both grazing country and commercial feeding operations.
Panhandle Wind, Dust, and Feedlot Exposure
Gray County shares the same tough conditions as the rest of the Texas Panhandle — relentless wind, blowing dust, and, for anyone hauling to or from area feedyards, manure acids and ammonia that corrode metal fast regardless of how dry the climate is. 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 holds up to Panhandle wind and feedlot corrosion alike.

- 5/16" thick, 3x5 heavy angle frame, seam welded for durability
- Laser cut, tabbed and slotted components for a tight, precise fit
- 14' to 40' lengths — from a small ranch herd to full commercial feedlot hauling
- Painted or hot dip galvanized, 6'8"/7'/7'6" widths, bar top livestock configuration
Serving Gray County and the Northeast Panhandle
Pampa sits within a short drive of the Panhandle's major feeding and ranching corridor, with Amarillo about an hour southwest and the Oklahoma Panhandle feedyard cluster around Guymon not far northeast. Local cow-calf operations, stocker cattle backgrounders, and order buyers moving cattle between grass and feedyards all depend on trailers that can handle daily Panhandle hauling.

Serving Pampa, White Deer, and Gray County Ranches
We work with cow-calf operations, stocker cattle backgrounders, and order buyers throughout Pampa, White Deer, and the surrounding Gray County ranch country. If you're comparing trailers sold locally, ask about frame gauge and finish — a heavier frame and true galvanized coating hold up far longer than painted steel against Panhandle wind, dust, and feedlot exposure.
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Pampa from Star Manufacturing's Wharton, TX shop?
About 500 miles, roughly a 7-8 hour drive — an easy in-state delivery or pickup.
Why does galvanizing matter for Panhandle feedlot hauling?
Manure acids and ammonia from feedyard exposure corrode metal fast regardless of the dry climate. A fully galvanized frame stands up to that corrosion far better than a painted surface coat.
What size trailer fits a typical Gray County ranch operation?
Many cow-calf operations run 20'-24' trailers, while backgrounders and order buyers moving larger loads to feedyards commonly step up to 28'-32'.
