I wanted to draw attention to our business about 20 months ago so i hired a message board from Danny. It was meant to be for a week or two but I cant de hire it as it gets me new customers everyday, The service thru out those 20 months has been second to none. Michael - Casey Health & Fitness Group2025-06-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've regularly hired VMS signs from Trailer signs for years now. The service is just so prompt and easy. Danny gets back to you really quickly with any emails and requests and is just so helpful and a pleasure to do business with. The signs are good quality with really good brightness on the messages, and Jeremy and the other team members that deliver it work really well with you to position the sign where you want it.

Highly recommended! Ken2024-02-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our Lions Club runs a book sale from time to time at Caribbean Park in Scoresby. One of the principal means of advertising the book sale is to use a Trailer Sign on Ferntree Gully Rd for the week leading up to and including the days of the book sale. Our exit surveys tell us that the Trailer Sign is a significant contributor to the success of our book sale. Trent Harlow2023-10-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. GREAT SERVICE! We had a very tight timeframe to get our sign up and they had it up for us within 24hrs. We also had a change to our pick up day which they made arrangments to make sure it was removed for us. Will be using them again.

I hired a trailer sign for our Tibaldi Christmas Shop this year and it has been amazing from start to finish. Darren was extremely professional and made it a smooth process to set up the sign. Our shop has been going for over 10 years now however this year sales have been so good that we sold out of hams! Thank you again Darren and look forward to booking again next year!
