Custom Hog Cages, Truck Bed Rigs, Trailer Cages & Trap Systems

The most common hog cage in Texas hunting culture — a welded cage built into the bed of a pickup for hauling live hogs, catch dogs, traps, coolers, fuel and gear. We build them custom to your truck in aluminum or steel.

• Full Bed Cage — covers the entire bed with side access doors, rear swing gate, integrated dog compartments and top rack storage. Built for serious hog hunters and working ranches.
• Half Cage / Combo Rig — encloses part of the bed; the rest stays open for feeders, ATVs, coolers or fuel tanks. The everyday Texas ranch truck setup.
• Dog Box + Hog Cage Combo — ventilated dog compartments paired with a larger cargo cage. Expanded metal doors, lockable storage, water tank mounts and removable dividers.

Trapping systems for capturing wild hogs alive. We weld each style to order from structural steel tubing and welded mesh, sized to your herd and how you plan to move it.

• Box Traps — compact welded cages with spring-loaded doors. Best for 1–3 hogs, beginners, and operations that need an easy-to-move trap.
• Corral Traps — large circular or square panel systems built to catch an entire sounder. Pair with remote cellular gates, root-style gates, or saloon gates. The most effective tool for population control.
• Drop Traps — suspended frame traps dropped remotely once a full group of hogs gathers underneath. Reduces trap shyness and catches whole sounders in one trigger.

Hog cages welded directly onto a utility trailer for transporting live hogs, running hunting operations across leases, nuisance animal control work, and moving stock around a ranch. Built for daily use on Texas back roads.

• Expanded metal sides for ventilation and visibility
• Removable dividers to separate animals or sections
• Wash-down floors and drain holes for easy cleanup
• Roof shade panels and rear loading ramps
• Tie-down points and lockable storage compartments

Smaller containment cages built specifically for catch dogs working hog hunts — Catahoulas, Pit Bulls, Black Mouth Curs, Leopards and similar breeds. Heavy ventilation, insulated roofs, and quick-release doors so you can deploy and recall dogs fast.

• Mounts on truck beds, flatbeds, or side-by-sides
• Insulated roof panels to cut Texas heat in the box
• Quick-release doors and integrated water systems
• Padded floors and divider options for multi-dog rigs

Both materials have a place in Texas hog work. We'll help you pick based on your truck, your budget, and how rough the cage will live.

• Aluminum — most premium custom rigs today. Lighter on the truck, rust resistant, easier on fuel mileage, cleaner appearance. Typically 1x1 or 1x2 tubing with diamond plate tops and expanded metal vents.
• Steel — heavier but cheaper and extremely strong. Preferred for traps that live outside year-round, ranch abuse, and rough terrain. Best paired with hot-dip galvanizing for long service life.

Most of our hog cage builds bundle several of these features. Tell us which ones matter most and we'll spec the build around them.

• Lockable storage compartments and gun drawers
• Expanded metal breather doors and adjustable vent sliders
• Removable dividers for multi-animal or multi-dog hauling
• Powder coating or hot-dip galvanizing in factory or camo finishes
• Water tank mounts and integrated dog watering systems
• LED lighting packages and roof racks
• Side access doors, slide-out trays and drain floors
• Insulated dog compartments for hot Texas afternoons

More Seguin and South Texas customers are moving away from standalone cages and ordering complete hunting truck packages — a single build that integrates everything they need. We can spec and weld the full rig in one shop, on one truck.

• Dog box + hog cage combination
• Lockable storage, gun rack and electronics compartment
• Water system, cooler slide, and fuel tank mounting
• Headache rack, roof rack and LED lighting package
• Camo or color-matched powder coat finish
