Founder
Founder and fabricator, Tim Elinski leads design and manufacturing operations for award-winning Pin Drop Travel Trailers, bringing over 25 years of experience as a licensed general and HVAC contractor. Raised in a family of tradesmen, Tim honed his skills restoring historic homes and building energy efficient additions and new homes. Now licensed by the State of Arizona as both a trailer manufacturer and dealer, Tim brings his talent, skill, creativity, and eye for design to lead the manufacturing team out of a repurposed 115-year old historic building in Miami, Arizona that he and his wife purchased in 2014. Together, they create custom, teardrop trailers that are rolling works of art and which can sustain through rugged terrain or provide comfort in a traditional campground. In 2024, Tim and his company were selected as a Co-100 Honoree and Customer Champion by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a prestigious recognition honoring the Top 100 Small Businesses in America.
Tim is also the former Mayor of the City of Cottonwood, Arizona where he served for nearly 20 years on the City Council, two terms as a council member and two terms as Mayor. Over his years of service, he co-founded the Historic Preservation Commission, co-founded the Verde Valley Homeless Commission, and led the effort to rebrand Cottonwood as the Heart of Arizona Wine Country. Tim is a Fellow of the Arizona Center for Civic Leadership's Flinn Brown Leadership Academy and is a dedicated husband and father to two young daughters.
