Who Are We At CoverMyAss Trailer Covers?
We are a Western Australian Family Based Small Business...
We are working on breathing life back into the Trailer Cover market which has been stuck with the same decades old designs. We look forward to building up the CoverMyAss brand to what we hope will become highly regarded by our customers for Old School service, reliability, trustworthiness and a quality value product. Let's get back to a relationship like that enjoyed by our grandfathers or if you are of my vintage, had the pleasure to experience the tail end of that beautiful era of customer service and well manufactured products.
We are constantly improving and expanding our range, but at this time we will soon launch our pride and joy with over 6 years of design and production stages, the unique COVER to CAMPER Caged Trailer Cover
Our Story: The COVER to CAMPER
Ok so I better tell you all how this little adventure of creating our trailer cover came to be, even if it is just me, typing away creating a page that will seldom be read .....nobody reads this stuff..... but one day when our little trailer cover idea takes off, there will be only ONE trailer cover in the world... MY PRECIOUS..... HAHAHA...Damn where did that come from, any how enough of the eye rolling dad humour.
This is our story.I spent my youth knocking about the northern suburbs of Perth Western Australia and ran into an amazing woman while at a Mr Whippy Van, so as you do at age 19, got married and had 5 children. Boom first two decades sorted!Taking on various jobs to pay the bills leads to learning new skillsets and in turn, expanding my little brain, but not our bank account.
I embrace minimalistic design and the challenge of re-purposing what I already had on-hand into something totally different. I would jot down any new design rattling about my skull in “The Green Book of Ideas”. Over the years someone would release a new product almost identical to my concepts. I would get “the look” from the wife when I’ve said “Hey I already thought of that”.
NESSECITY IS THE MOTHER OF ALL INVENTION.After purchasing my 1st caged trailer, a 30 year old rust bucket with holes in the floor pan, I needed some way to cover it from further destruction by the elements. An even greater issue at the time was a convergence of our family’s love of camping and the worsening of my wife’s disabilities. My better half could no longer easily manourver the low floor mattress, leading me to my first attempts at a homemade trailer cover and camper combination. So as many times in the past, I set out designing my own trailer cover come camping quarters.
MY FIRST SAD FAILED ATTEMPT AT A CAGED TRAILER COVER.My first homemade attempt at a caged trailer camper cover was, to be kind, of limited success. First trip out, we realised the weight of this new metal cover had greatly increased our fuel consumption, but it was about to get worse. The hollow steel frame, which I forgot to spray for infestations, produced a swarm of baby spiders as well as their huge very pissed off mum…… right near our heads….. at 1am in the morning……. torrential rain pouring outside. Without going into the detail of how impressed my darling wife was at the time, we found ourselves making the 2hr drive home from the camp grounds.So years of trying different tarps and tie-down combinations, and largely due to this epic failure, I was set on this course to design my own cover, the CAMPER to COVER Caged Trailer Cover.
Aaaahh no no, don't look.... Yes, yes it is my 1st shockingly poor attempt at a trailer cover!!
