but on a serious note, does anyone know a dealer that does the werm flooring? i had a quote of 1,300 for the floor then another 1,350 to haul the trailer back and forth.

I think Wriker sold out their trailer business, so I doubt they are doing it any longer. I'm in KY, so not terribly far from you, and had difficulty locating anyone within a reasonable driving distance who does WERM, so I elected to go ahead and buy a trailer with it already installed. I will say, WERM is worth it!

yes wriker sold out to select trailers in shelbyville and they have all the equipment but not the knowledge. i spoke to them yesterday and they said they might try to learn this in the next few months. i told them they could make money if they would get this started. i would even be their first one if they wanted!!

Hello All,
I am Richard Smith with Select Trailer Co. in Shelbyville, TN. Yes, we have all of the WERM equipment and materials from Wriker Chev. I have spoken to Kris @ WERM many times over the past two years and have volunteered to send folks to OKC for training. But at this time they are not setting up any more dealers nor providing training. And at this time, they have asked us not to use the materials that we have until they decide to gear up again. So as with you folks, we'd love to offer the service/product- it just isn't time yet according to WERM.
Thanks,
RTSmith

I was starting to plan a trip to Shelbyville after reading July's post. I would be 2nd in line! Richard, please keep us "in the know" in regards to Select's future WERM plans.

i guess they are pushing "the little people" aside for the bigger fish (trailer manufactures) too bad because i really like this product. i wonder if the werm company realizes that there are a lot of people that would use this on an already owned trailer, not just the ones from the plant. maybe they will decide to let select trailers in on this product soon.

Personally if I were a trailer dealer and had all the materials,and offered to send people to learn to install WERM flooring and provide it in an area where there are no dealers for several states distance,I think I'd tell them to take a hike after 2 years of asking them.
You would think WERM would be interested in providing their services and products and setting up a dealership with someone that has shown interest that long.There are no close dealers to Tennessee.
I'd rather go with Rumber,or Rhino myself.I would be tired of "messing" with them after this length of time.Guess they like keeping themselves exclusive and only want to deal with the "big boys" there in OK.

I would not give up on WERM. They are a very big and busy company. I have WERM in my trailer and would never be with out it. They have stood the test of time with many high profile manufactures and dealers. There is no other product out there like it.

i haven't given up on wrem, they have given up on me! the dealers in shelbyville have ALL the stuff neede but they can't get anyone at werm to train them. now what does that tell you? they are turning their backs on the little guys. if select trailer is reading this please contact the other guys (cushion ez clean) they are wanting people to train. i just can't make the 13 hour (one way) drive to have the werm installed. what is the name of the town that is outside okc that is doing the werm? maybe it's not 13 hours!!!!

An update- WERM has a new sales manager by the name of Scott Terpstra. And in conjunction with WERMS owner, are doing some limited expansion with new dealers and have offered to train & set us up here at Select Trailer next month. They are very cautious in that if a product like this is not correctly installed, the resulting mess can take many, many hours to clean up. This is not meant to be a commercial plug by any means, but for those who have been upset with WERM slow action, myself included, I do have to agree with their point that if you can't make sure it is done right, then you better not do it! We are excited that they are to the point of offering their product to more folks here in the SE USA. Training is tentatively set up for Nov.

They sure CAN'T make sure it is done right if they sit around and put somebody off for 2 years that would like to have people trained by WERM to install it!!!!
Glad they've finally gotten around to recognizing you guys exist.I would have gotten tired of their B a long time before now.SInce it will probably be such a good thing for you,you're more patient about it I suppose.Good luck.

July,did you see the thread of Gard's describing installing floor covering in the trailer similar to Rhino? He describes a do it yourself job and how to go about installing it.
Since you're wanting to install flooring in your LQ compartment,it shouldn't be a big deal to try what he is talking about too,just my opinion.You're spending a lot of time trying to line up somebody to do WERM,Duracoat,ect.

I would be 2nd in line! Richard, please keep us "in the know" in regards to Select's future WERM plans. .jpg)
