Utility trailers make up our entire dry van division. All of these vehicles are 53′ in length and several have “E-track” for enhanced load securement.
Our refrigerated trailers are also Utility trailers with Thermo King units. All trailers are 53′ in length and 102′ wide, with ribbed and solid floors. We are happy to “pre-cool” trailers based on the needs of our customers.
