Manufacturer Spotlight: Midsota
When you need towing equipment that works as hard and long as you do, turn to Midsota Manufacturing. A homegrown company, Midsota Manufacturing crafts heavy-duty dump and off-road trailers that are built to last.
Midsota’s commercial grade steel trailers are built to endure hard work, tough conditions, and come with a five-year frame guarantee for additional peace of mind. For hard play or hard work, look to Midsota Manufacturing, with its product line of more than 40 different trailer models, ranging from small single-axle utility trailers to dual-axle gooseneck heavy equipment haulers.
Midsota Manufacturing began in a garage in 1971 as a small welding company and continues to grow and innovate at its state-of-the-art production facility in Avon, Minn., where more than 75 employees are focused on customer satisfaction.
Engineers craft trailers with rugged conditions in mind beginning with the in-house 3D-design engineers that start the process to transform more than 3.6 million pounds of steel a year into a Midsota trailer. Steel tubes are cut to form the frame while a plasma cutter precisely shapes the steel sheet into the trailer’s components. From there skilled craftsmen using state-of-the-art equipment grind, shape, bend and form the parts for assembly.
The main frame is hand welded by Midsota’s home-grown welding team, while additional work is completed by the company’s robotic welding arm for consistent, perfect welds every time. The assembled frame is prepped and painted before heading to the finishing department, where the decking, lights, tires, mechanical components, and Midsota features are added.
The quality control and attention to detail from start to finish results in a trailer that works for Midsota’s customers for years to come.
Today Midsota’s product line includes a full line of commercial and off-road dump trailers, skid loader trailers and an extensive line of skid loader attachments, with available options that allow customers to tailor their trailers to meet their exacting towing and hauling needs.

Midsota Manufacturing History
Midsota Manufacturing got its start more than 40 years ago as a welding company in Albany Minnesota. In 2002, Sands Welding Incorporated became Midsota Manufacturing and in 2005 the company moved to Avon, Minn. Within a decade, Midsota was bursting at the seams and purchased a second facility in Avon in 2014. Today the company is expanding and streamlining its production facilities by 30,000 square feet to better meet the needs of its customers.
