Toy haulers are the way to go if travelling with your toys is necessary for the adventures you crave. They’ve come a long way in the last few years. Gone are the days of struggling to find a way to bring your motorized recreation with you when you travel.

Rod Siemens is the general manager of O’Connor RV in Chilliwack, BC and they’ve been open for business since 1976.

“Toy haulers are for the rednecks and nature lovers who love the outdoors,” Siemens said. “They’re your passport to fun and adventure because you can take all your toys with you without having to make a second trip. All in one, toy haulers make travelling and outdoor adventure that much more fun.”

Toy haulers have definitely become a lot more sophisticated over time. There are incredible floor plans to choose from, packed full of all the amenities on anyone’s wish list. The XLR and Winnebago brands are two of the leaders in toy haulers, according to Siemens, and range from 24 feet to 45 feet. The XLR Thunderbolt, for instance, has features like LED lighting throughout, six-point hydraulic level-up, collapsible exterior ladder, 7'6" living room slide height, a 42,000-BTU furnace and much more.

“The convenience and flexibility of these trailers have made them a hot item in the RV world,” said Siemens. “From generators to power your trailer in the middle of the woods to enjoying the back deck sitting on a lake while fishing for your next meal, toy haulers have become the most sought after universal trailer around and it’s no wonder everyone is looking into seeing what they offer.”

For riders of ATVs, side-by-sides and dirt bikes alike, the convenience couldn’t be more apparent. Loading and transporting your entire family’s summertime toys becomes as easy as one, two, three.

“At the end of the day, you can relax watching your big-screen TV, have a nice shower, or just sit on the La-Z-Boy and read a book,” said Siemens. “No matter what your idea of relaxing in the great outdoors is, the toy hauler is your answer to an incredible holiday in the woods or in the sand.”
