Mobile Welding in Harrington, Delaware
Harrington is about 40 miles, or roughly an hour, south of our Townsend shop by Route 1 and Route 13. It's at the southern end of Kent County, and it's still inside our regular service area. Farmers, horse people and fair exhibitors around Harrington get the same on-site mobile welding we bring everywhere else.

Fair Country, Farm Country, Rail Town
Livestock and horse trailers
Harrington hosts the Delaware State Fair every July, and Harrington Raceway runs harness racing on the fairgrounds. That means a lot of livestock trailers, horse trailers and show equipment. We fix floor supports, dividers, gates, ramps, hitches and tongues, and our free trailer safety checklist is a good place to start before a big haul.
See Trailer Repair.
Farms along Route 13 and Route 14
The grain and livestock farms around Harrington keep hitches, implements, loaders and gates busy. We repair them in the field with the mobile rig so you don't lose a day hauling equipment.
Shops, yards and trucks in town
Route 13 and Route 14 cross in Harrington, and the town has been a railroad junction for generations. Businesses here call us for truck bodies, dump bodies, racks, guards and other on-site repairs.
Getting ready for fair season? Get trailer and equipment repairs on the schedule early. Harrington is about an hour from the shop, so we plan those trips ahead.
Harrington was named for Samuel Maxwell Harrington, a former chancellor of Delaware, and grew up around a junction on the Delaware Railroad. It's still a rail town: the Delmarva Central Railroad has offices here, and its Indian River line branches off toward the coast. Route 13 runs north toward Dover and south toward Salisbury, and Route 14 runs east toward Milford and west toward Denton, Maryland. With the fairgrounds just south of town, July is the busiest month of the year here.


Small job? Drop it off at the shop in Townsend.
Brackets, hitches, small trailers, stove parts, lawn equipment and anything that fits in a pickup are quickest to fix at our Townsend shop. Call or text (302) 532-6240 first so Rick is there. The mobile rig is for bigger or immovable jobs: trailers, equipment, railings and gates that can't come to us.
