Let’s say you are in Bemidji, Minnesota and you just found a wonderful antique shop that has all the missing parts to your eclectic furniture collection ranging from an amazing little painted Shaker clock reel ($6,500), a mint condition Shaker tall chest of drawers with a semi-graduated, molded lip ($48,000), amazingly they also have the 1959 Barbie No. 1 “The Diamond Barbie” ($85,000).  You can’t wait to have these wonderful treasures in your sitting room in the Hamptons, but alas!  Do you really want to entrust your precious cargo to the hands of Joe and John the local hauling guys?  I know, they carry insurance, but wouldn’t it make more sense to bring your treasures home by yourself?  Of course it does!  A practical and safe means to get them home is to purchase an ATC cargo trailer before you leave for your trip; you see the scenario above was fictitious.  But, think for a moment if it really happened and how much better you would feel knowing that you are putting your valuable finds in a quality built cargo trailer.  I know that you probably would be feeling about as good as the guy sitting on Waikiki beach while getting handed a tropical drink with an umbrella in it.  ATC builds all of their cargo trailers to the highest standards possible and puts the construction in the hands of Amish craftsmen to ensure that the trailer doesn’t simply get the job done, but that the fit and finish is great!  Come on, do you really want your Barbie to wear the gown with 160 diamonds and white gold jewelry to ride in anything less than the comfort and security that an ATC cargo trailer can provide?

So, unless you’ve been living on the moon for the past six months, you know our economy is in a recession.  The RV and trailer industry has been especially hard-hit.  We’ve been luckier than most here at ATC and Motiv Trailers – but our business is still slower than we’d like.  So just like everyone else, we are trying to “think outside the box” a little and be creative in our efforts to boost activity.  One route we’re exploring is a brand new cargo trailer line – the Motiv Raven steel cargo trailer.  This trailer is designed to be competitively priced in the tough cargo trailer market, while remaining the superior built product that Motiv is famous for.  We’ve included Dexter leaf-spring axles, a flat top aluminum roof, hat post walls and ceiling, Advantech flooring with a 25 year warranty, and bias ply tires.  All these features keep the prices low and the lead times short!  We are introducing the Raven car hauler in 5′, 6′, and 7′ models, with lengths available from 8′ all the way to 16′ long.  We have also come up with a short list of popular options that you can add to give these trailers a little extra zip – things like 6″ extra height, upgrade to vinyl or 3/8″ plywood walls and ceiling, rear ramp doors, radial tires, and 12″ extended tongue.  These lightweight steel cargo trailer are designed to be production friendly, which keeps the price amazingly low for such a super quality trailer!  So if you’re looking for an easy way to boost your sales a little, get a few Motiv Ravens to sit on your lot.  You’ll be amazed at how fast they disappear…

No matter what kind of precious cargo you have to carry, we have an aluminum cargo trailer to fit the bill.  Here at ATC we build everything from a 6′ x 12′ aluminum cargo trailer all the way up to a 53′ aluminum cargo trailer.

One of the big advantages of our aluminum cargo trailer is the lightweight design.  With a lightweight design you can pull our trailer will smaller tow vehicles and save fuel in the process.  Our engineering team designed our aluminum cargo trailer out of all tube construction which means that strength and longevity are a standard features.

Another reason our aluminum cargo trailers have been so popular is because our aluminum frame is retardant to rust and corrosion.  That means whether you own the trailer for one year of fifteen years, you will be proud of the appearance.  It also means that you will be guaranteed to never spend a Saturday afternoon repainting the rust on your steel frame.  I don’t know about you, but that sure doesn’t sounds like the relaxing Saturday afternoon that I enjoy.
