When it comes to buying a trailer, customers across Albany County, Saratoga County, and Schenectady County all say the same thing once they find us:
“Now I understand why everyone told me to come here.”
At Outdoor Motor Sports and Trailer Sales, trailers are not an afterthought. They are a major division of our business and a major part of who we are. Since the current ownership took over in 2014, we immediately recognized the growing demand for quality trailers for residential, commercial, agricultural, and recreational use across Upstate New York.
Today, our reputation as a leading New York State trailer dealer is built on three things: knowledge, inventory, and transparency. That combination is exactly why customers routinely drive past closer options to shop with us.
A Trailer Dealer Built on Knowledge, Not Pressure
One of the biggest differences customers notice right away is our team. We don’t believe in selling trailers — we believe in matching people to the right trailer.
Every customer’s needs are different. A homeowner hauling mulch has very different requirements than a landscaper running three crews, a contractor hauling equipment, or a snowmobiler heading north for the season. Our sales team is professionally trained to ask the right questions first, including:
- What are you hauling?
- How often are you using the trailer?
- What vehicle are you towing with?
- What length, width, and GVWR actually make sense?
- Do you need room to grow in the future?
Because we stock hundreds of trailers at a time, we never have to force customers into something that doesn’t fit. We don’t fit a trailer to you — we fit you to the trailer.
That philosophy alone has earned us referrals throughout Albany, Saratoga, and Schenectady, and the word-of-mouth momentum continues to grow.
One of the Largest Trailer Selections in the Region
Inventory matters — especially in New York, where seasonal demand and weather can limit availability elsewhere.
At Outdoor Motor Sports and Trailer Sales, we consistently stock trailers across seven core categories, including:
- Dump Trailers
- Utility Trailers
- Equipment Trailers
- Horse & Livestock Trailers
- Cargo / Enclosed Trailers
- Car Haulers
- Snowmobile Trailers
Within those trailer categories, we also carry highly specialized options such as ATV and UTV trailers, motorcycle trailers, landscaping trailers, and toy haulers.
From a 10-foot Sure-Trac dump trailer for homeowners to a brightly colored, powder-coated Diamond C gooseneck, our inventory supports every walk of life. Whether you need value-driven reliability or top-tier build quality, we have options that make sense.
Brands We Stand Behind
We don’t carry brands just to fill space. Every manufacturer on our lot has earned its place.
We proudly carry trusted names such as:
- Diamond C
- Sure-Trac
- Big Tex
- High Country
- Aluma
- Featherlite
- Compass
- ITI Cargo
Each brand offers specific models we truly believe in — and stand behind. We believe in balance: value trailers that deliver bang for the buck, and premium trailers that justify every dollar. What we don’t believe in is ultra-cheap trailers that cause frustration, downtime, and regret.
Serving Albany, Saratoga, and Schenectady — and Beyond
Our location at 3953 NY-30 in Amsterdam, NY places us in a perfect position to serve the entire region. We’re just minutes from Route 29 and the I-90 Thruway, making us easily accessible from:
- Albany and surrounding Capital Region communities
- Saratoga Springs and the entire Saratoga County area
- Schenectady County and Rotterdam
We see patterns every day:
- Albany County customers often come to us for heavy-duty equipment and landscaping trailers
- Saratoga County customers purchase everything from enclosed cargo to horse, utility, and dump trailers
- Schenectady County customers appreciate the easy drive and unmatched selection across all categories
Many customers tell us we were “worth the drive” — even when it means passing several smaller dealers along the way.
A Buying Experience Designed Around You
Whether you start online or walk in, the process is designed to be simple.
Our website allows customers to:
- Browse real, in-stock trailers
- See actual photos, not stock images
- View accurate availability (including pending units)
- Apply for financing online
That said, we always recommend speaking with one of our sales professionals. Trailers are not one-size-fits-all, and our goal is to help you make a decision you’ll be happy with long term.
To make the experience even better in Upstate New York weather, we can:
- Pull your trailer into our heated service garage
- Allow you to drive your vehicle through the trailer lot without ever getting out
Comfort and convenience matter.
Financing, DMV, and Full Transparency
Buying a trailer shouldn’t feel complicated — and it doesn’t here.
We handle:
- Financing through our in-house finance team
- DMV registration, plates, and inspections
- Transparent pricing with no surprises
We accept cash, card, financing, and even Bitcoin. Our goal is to remove friction, not add to it.
Service, Support, and Long-Term Value
Our relationship doesn’t end when you pull off the lot.
We have a dedicated service garage fully equipped to:
- Perform yearly inspections
- Handle brake service and preventative maintenance
- Support manufacturer and extended warranties
We even offer Warranty Forever on qualifying trailers, provided manufacturer service requirements are met. This approach protects your investment and keeps your trailer working for years.
We also carry parts, accessories, and upgrades, and every customer receives a full walk-through before leaving.
Real Customers. Real Results.
Tim from Ballston Spa came in looking for a dump trailer but wasn’t sure what he actually needed. After learning he was hauling stone from a local gravel pit and working within a budget, we matched him with a 60×10 Big Tex dump trailer with a 7K GVWR. It fit his needs perfectly — and cost less than expected. Tim has since purchased multiple powersports units from us.
Jim from Rotterdam needed an enclosed trailer for a growing side business. We helped him choose a 12-foot enclosed trailer with ramps, allowing him to safely load and unload equipment with a dolly.
Rick and Judy from Albany traveled from Troy because our selection stood out. They own a growing landscaping company and purchased three utility landscaping trailers, each customized for their crews.
We also see many customers trading in trailers they bought elsewhere — trailers that were simply wrong for their needs. That’s the difference between selling what’s available and selling what’s right.
Why It Should Matter to You
Buying locally means service, support, and accountability. Online trailer purchases often leave customers stranded when something goes wrong. Big-box stores can’t offer expertise, customization, or service after the sale.
We may be the closest thing to a “Carvana for trailers,” but with something better — real people who care about getting it right.
Our Philosophy Going Forward
Trailers have always been important to our business — and they always will be. Customers today are looking for value, not shortcuts. They want the best bang for their buck, and they want confidence in their purchase.
Our goal is simple:
To be the best place in New York State to shop, finance, and purchase a new trailer.
If you’re in Albany, Saratoga, Schenectady, or anywhere in Upstate New York, Outdoor Motor Sports and Trailer Sales is ready to help you find the trailer that fits — not just today, but for years to come.
