Tuesday, April 27th, 2010We at The Aluminum Trailer Company and Motiv Trailers are well known for having the ability to build unique and custom trailers. While this might be the case, we have been working hard to cover all aspects of trailer utilization. Even though we have the competence and capability to build mobile medical units and air support trailers we also would like to make it known that we build a remarkable cargo trailer as well. We have worked hard over the past 10 years to design trailers for all different types of applications, from landscape cargo trailers equipped with a single bathroom and sink to a simple yet stunning cargo trailer used for hauling whatever your needs may be. Our Raven Lites are extremely price competitive and available in both steel and aluminum. Check online at www.aluminumtrailer.com for your nearest dealer for pricing and availability.

Commercial Trailers
Friday, April 23rd, 2010
ATC and Motiv Trailers build a wide variety of commercial trailers. One of the hottest segments of the commercial trailer market has been the mobile marketing trailers. These trailers are typically set up with sides that fold down and create a stage around the trailer. This allows owners to invite customers into their mobile shop space and display their products. It creates an inviting environment where customers can easily and naturally interact with the products that are being displayed. We’ve also built many of these stage trailers for show car displays too. We’ve heard time and time again, there simply is no better way to display a hot looking show car than with a custom stage.
Another growing segment in commercial trailers has been the mobile concession market. These trailers range from mobile food vending trailers to the T-shirt vending trailers found on the NASCAR circuit. ATC and Motiv have been industry leaders in commercial trailers due to our unmatched level of quality and craftsmanship. When it comes to making you look good in front of your customer, nothing compares to the quality of and ATC or Motiv trailer. Call us to discuss your project today!
Gooseneck Trailers
Thursday, April 22nd, 2010The Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) and Motiv Trailers build a wide range of trailers. We build enclosed cargo trailers, tag, stacker and concession trailers. However, where our company really shines is with our enclosed gooseneck trailers.
Our gooseneck trailers (either steel or aluminum) can be used in a wide variety of applications. Whether you need to haul a large amount of stuff, have a racing team and need a trailer to haul your cars or need any number of mobile applications (office, laboratory, class room, wine bottling, etc, etc. ) our gooseneck trailer can fill your need.
A gooseneck trailer has a variety of benefits over a tag trailer. The most obvious one is the trailer length. While our tags are limited to around 30 feet or so in length, our goosenecks can go all the way up to 53 feet! This allows for tremendous flexibility in customization and use. Another benefit is quality of the ride. With a gooseneck (or a fifth wheel) the trailer hitch will be connected either within the bed of the pickup or to the back of the semi trailer This is different from our tag or cargo units which are attached to the rear of the tow vehicle. This allows for better weight distribution, tighter turn radiuses and a smoother over all ride.
Cargo Trailers
Wednesday, April 21st, 2010Its spring time! The weather is improving, things are growing again and people are beginning to start thinking about summer. Its also a time when people start thinking about cargo trailers. Enclosed cargo trailers can be used for a variety of applications. Whether you are a landscaper, contractor or just a hauler of stuff, cargo trailer can be a convenient, inexpensive way to get your stuff around.
ATC and Motiv enclosed cargo trailers offer a great way to get your stuff around. While built by the same workforce that builds our highly custom units, these trailers are economically and competitively priced. You should have no problem finding one which meets your needs. Our cargo trailer line features, the Raven Lite (both steel and aluminum), the MSX (steel) and the SS (aluminum) models.
If you don’t need many options, you just want a high quality cargo that will get your stuff from here to there, the Raven Lite model will be the option for you. This model is competitively priced and has available the most popular cargo trailer options.
If you need a little bit more sophistication and nuance in your cargo trailer, then the MSX or the SS models are probably right for you. While also competitively priced, these models can be customized to handle any need or option request that you have.

Cargo Trailers and Enclosed Trailers
Friday, April 16th, 2010When it comes to enclosed trailers we at ATC can build just about anything. From the $1500 cargo trailer up to the $200,000 command center. Everything in between those two items we have the ability to build. Last spring we noticed that we have the capacity to build more trailers than we were building so we introduced our raven lite line of cargo trailers. We have always excelled in building larger enclosed trailers that require more engineering capabilities. Enclosed trailers in this category are much different than building simple cargo trailers. We have a special kind of workforce that has the capability finish out the enclosed trailers in a special way. Customers that buy larger and more expensive enclosed trailers have higher standards and higher expectations about what the product needs to do and look like. Many enclosed trailers, unlike cargo trailers, have to be approached with a project mentality rather than a trailer that’s going to run down the line in a day or so. These enclosed trailers test the limits of most manufacturers and typically end with an unsatisfied customer and dealer. Cargo trailers have customers and needs that are much easier to meet expectations. We have been constantly challenged by unique enclosed trailer needs and are able to meet or exceed our customer’s expectations. As we have developed our line of lower cost cargo trailers, we have been surprised by the number of customers that are willing to pay a bit more for a nicer product. Our cargo trailer line has been especially popular with people that want a low cost trailer that has a lighter weight aluminum frame. Our cargo trailers are available with a low cost aluminum upgrade that has been very popular, especially with our Canadian customers. We can offer cargo trailer dealers the ability to sell a large custom product to a large or demanding enclosed trailer application. We are quickly becoming a recognized name in a very crowded enclosed trailer market.
