He Builds People Hauler Wagons
 ✖  |
If you need a horse-drawn or tractor-drawn wagon for your agritourism or event business, Aaron Nolt can help you out. The owner of A-A Carriage-Wheel Shop in New Holland, Penn., started by making and repairing wheels. Then, based on customer requests, he added building horse-drawn carriages and carts and wagons to his business.
“We use torsion axles and leaf springs for a better ride in the wagons,” Nolt says, adding they are built on 6-ton running gear.
The 16-ft. long tractor-drawn People Hauler wagons have treated wood with exterior stain for the sides, kiln-dried poplar floors, seats on the side and down the center and fixed steps on the back. Horse-drawn wagons have the same seating configuration but are made of PVC board and have flip-up steps on the back.
“We also have a metal frame wagon with a roof over the top for shade and protection from the rain,” Nolt says.
He has sold wagons in several states in the East to farms and businesses that give rides and host holiday events. Price for the tractor-drawn wagon is about $6,000.
Though most sales are for carriages, there’s also growing interest in A-A’s horse carts, suitable for competitions or pleasure riding. He also builds customized wagons.
