The ECHO SS Drone Dock is a removable drone support platform built for your trailer. It is designed for agricultural drone operators who need a safer, more organized way to load, service, launch, land, and work around spray drones in the field without permanently dedicating a trailer to one use.
You send us your trailer specs, or you buy a trailer and send us the information before the build. We also work with Riceville Autobody & Trailer for anyone who wants a local trusted source for trailers if you need one, just tell them ECHO Eqpt sent you! We build the Drone Dock around that trailer so you can use it as a drone platform during spray season, then remove the system when the trailer needs to go back to normal work.
The Drone Dock is built from the same concept as our proven ECHO SS Drone Skid platform for semi tractors, but redesigned for customer-supplied trailers. The standard system uses a 25′ lower dock, a 34′ upper dock, and a 9′ x 8′ upper work platform. One side wing is required for safety, with the second wing and rear drone elevator lift available as upgrades.
Does ECHO supply the trailer?
No. We do not supply trailers. The Drone Dock is built for your trailer, or for a trailer you purchase separately. We work with Riceville Autobody & Trailer for anyone who wants a local trusted source for trailers if you need one, just tell them ECHO Eqpt sent you!
What comes with the required package?
The required package includes the base Drone Dock system, 24V pump system, lithium-ion batteries, one side wing, and the access/work platform package.
Why is one side wing required?
One side wing is required for safety. You can choose driver-side or passenger-side placement based on your trailer layout and how you want to work around the drone.
Can I add both side wings?
Yes. One side wing is required, and the second wing can be added as an option for a dual-wing setup.
Is the rear drone elevator lift required?
No. The rear drone elevator lift with hydraulic raise and tilt is optional.
Can I still use my trailer for other work?
Yes. That is the point of the Drone Dock. It is designed as a removable platform so the trailer can go back to other uses when the dock is removed.
What trailer information do you need?
We need your trailer specs, dimensions, frame details, deck layout, available mounting space, GVWR, axle setup, and photos. The more information you provide, the better we can match the platform to the trailer.
Can this be built for a new trailer I buy?
Yes. You can buy a trailer, send us the specs, and we can build the Drone Dock around that trailer.
Is this the same as the SS Drone Skid?
No. The Drone Dock is built off the proven SS Drone Skid platform concept, but this version is made for customer-supplied trailers instead of semi tractors.
What is the minimum price setup?
The minimum required setup is $32,903 based on the current pricing guide. That includes the base system, required pump and batteries, one required side wing, and the required access/work platform package.
Note: Final fitment depends on trailer length, frame strength, deck layout, axle rating, GVWR, mounting space, balance, and how the trailer will be used. ECHO does not supply the trailer.
Common Compatible Trailers
Gooseneck Equipment Trailers: Strong candidate for customers wanting a heavy-duty trailer-based drone platform.
Flatbed Equipment Trailers: Good fit when the trailer has the length, frame, deck space, and rating needed for the platform.
Deckover Trailers: Good candidate when the deck height, width, and structure work with the Drone Dock layout.
Pintle Hitch Equipment Trailers: Possible fit for heavier commercial and farm support setups, depending on trailer specs.
Custom-Built Trailers: Strong option if you are buying a new trailer and want it matched to the Drone Dock from the start.
Utility and Landscape Trailers: Case-by-case only. Many lighter trailers may not have the frame, deck, or weight rating needed.
All ECHO attachments are backed by a 2-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship from the original purchase date – twice the length of standard industry coverage.

If something goes wrong, you deal directly with ECHO. No runaround – just real support from people who built the product and stand behind it.
Built for Your Trailer
Send us your trailer specs and we build the Drone Dock around your trailer instead of forcing you into a one-size-fits-all setup.
Trailer Still Stays Useful
The platform is removable, so your trailer can still be used for other work when you are not using it for drone operations.
One Wing Required for Safety
Every setup requires at least one side wing, with the choice of driver-side or passenger-side placement depending on your trailer and workflow.
Based on a Proven Platform
The Drone Dock is built from the same concept as the ECHO SS Drone Skid for semi tractors, giving trailer owners a similar platform option without needing a dedicated semi tractor setup.
At ECHO Eqpt, we actually use and support the equipment we sell. You’re not getting generic answers, you are talking to people who understand how this equipment works in the field. That means faster answers, better recommendations, and no wasted time trying to figure things out on your own.
We’re easy to work with. If something breaks, tell us what actually happened and be honest with us (a good sense of humor doesn’t hurt either). We’re often known to help out even outside of standard warranty terms. And if it’s on us, we’ll own it and make it right. No excuses, no finger pointing - just real support when it matters.
