In 2003, Jeff Hadley begin volunteering while his daughter was in the Edmond Memorial Band. Fixing flat tires and moving equipment during contests quickly morphed into building and upgrading rolling equipment to be efficiently towed behind a golf cart, reducing the number of band parents needed to move field equipment during contests and football games.
In 2008, the band director at Edmond Memorial High School asked band dad volunteers, Jeff and Drew, to solve for the growing program’s transportation challenges. Consequently, we embarked on a 2-year effort to evaluate, design, and implement a solution that focused on student safety, as well as innovative, efficient, and secure equipment transportation. Clubhouse Trailer Company officially began in 2010 after the completion of their first trailer, “Bulldog One”. Jeff, Drew, and other volunteer parents dedicated enjoyable, but pain-staking hours to the build, coming together in Jeff’s small warehouse garage that band families’ fondly called “The Clubhouse”. After Bulldog One was completed, it caught the attention of other band programs in Oklahoma, and eventually, in other states. Trailer production quickly escalated to full-time, necessitating a 2019 company move to The Clubhouse’s current location in Edmond, Oklahoma. Clubhouse Trailer Company was named the overall Greater OKC Chamber Metro 50 winner for being the fastest growing, privately-held company in central Oklahoma in 2019.
The Clubhouse is here to support the marching band community. While we provide turn-key solutions, we also work with schools at all levels, and provide many services, including:
The Clubhouse is lucky enough to support customers coast to coast. With more than 330 trailers deployed over the last 15 years, we have trailers from New York to California, Wisconsin to South Texas. From our home base in Edmond, Oklahoma, we have served more than 85,000 students across the country since 2010.
Schools with Clubhouse Trailers solutions vary in size, from Allen High School, that marches over 500 students, to bands with less than 30 members. Whatever the size, Clubhouse Trailers has a safe and efficient solution to help move you.
Roughly 85% of our projects are funded by school districts, while the remaining are booster funded or anonymous donors. We have fundraising packets available for schools at no cost. We regularly develop RFP responses, and have been awarded multi-year contracts through various buying cooperatives, so we may already be an approved vendor for your district!
Nearly every solution Clubhouse Trailers provides is engineered in-house. Our inventory management system lists more than 1000 custom items that are built for our trailers.
Structures within the trailers are primarily aluminum, either specific extrusion profiles, or waterjet cut from large sheets. Most pieces are finished with a mil-spec anodize for longevity and a premium finish.
Our full-service machine shop and wood shop give us the ability to make any custom solutions you can dream up. An automated drill press prepares our ramp structure for assembly, and our CNC stays busy routing out pieces for the electrical cabinet and shelving, while the fleet of 3D printers print more than 20 items within the trailers.
It’s no secret that prices are going up everywhere. In our opinion, when prices rise, we believe quality should too.
Over the last few years, we have taken steps to reduce reliance on outside vendors. This includes working with the Oklahoma Manufacturing Alliance to identify local, OK-based or US-based suppliers, and sourcing high-skill individuals to help bring additional processes in-house.
One in-sourced segment has been our vinyl graphics printing & installation services. With an investment in our team and some machines, we can now print every vinyl product ourselves, as well as have a fantastic team of installers that get to bring life to your community showpiece.

Transporting trailers to and from The Clubhouse used to be done by 3rd Party Logistics (3PL) companies. While they will move trailers from point A to point B, they did not embody the care and professionalism we want to be associated with our trailers. Their prices also continued to rise, along with general freight costs.

In 2023, we began the process to start our own trucking company, Clubhouse Logistics. Doing this allowed us to control the entire delivery, showcasing, and overall presentation of your trailers, while reducing costs.
