Default Trimmer Rack

Hey gang- Anybody have any suggestions for a trimmer rack? I'd like to build one and trying to see if anyone has one that works well. I've got an open trailer if that matters to anyone..... Pictures/ websites/ descriptions would be a great help. Thank you in advance!

Lawn care business tips
Check out Lowes.com search for trimmer rack.

I myself built mine, have square tubing that runs up the side of the trailer, and welded in small hooks from the tubing also, then a bar that runs over the front and "Clamps down" like pliers closing that can be raised and then lowered to be locked down....

Lots of theft in the area, so I like one that I can pad lock down as my trailer stays outdoors.

Any chance I could get you to send a few pictures?

I have the new rack made by Trimmer Trap. Excellent rack as it holds 3 trimmers and locks them in place. best trimmer rack ever but kinda costly.

Thanks!
