Commercial Trailers-Breathing Air and Rehab Trailer

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

ATC just completed another spectacular Fire trailer.  This air trailer included everything you need for refilling your breathing air tanks in a remote scenario.  The back half of the trailer was fitted with filling station and containment unit, DOT bottles and storage for the scba bottles.  In the front of the breathing air and rehab trailer was everything the firemen will need to rest and be revitalized.  It also works as a mini’ command center.  The rehab area has plenty of seating, bathroom, heat and air conditioning to recharge the crew during the long mission.  Please take a look at the pictures on our website.  http://www.aluminumtrailer.com/custom%20trailers/emergency%20response

As you will see almost every inch of this trailer served a purpose.

Commercial Trailers

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

Commercial Trailers are a large part of what we do here at ATC.  We tend to do things that commercial trailer customers want.  Commercial trailer buyers tend to be more concerned with performance than with price.  They want their commercial trailer to perform in the field to their expectations no matter what the surrounding circumstances are.  Many people that buy commercial trailers depend on that trailer for their livelihoods.  If the commercial trailer has a problem in the field or does not do what the end user wants it to do, then the whole commercial trailer becomes a wasted product.  Commercial trailer buyers also want a product that will last longer than a typical cheaper cargo style trailer.  When you calculate the monthly cost of a seemingly expensive commercial trailer, the price becomes less of an issue when that commercial trailer lasts 10 years.  Commercial trailers are a very important part of our business and we make sure that our commercial customers are satisfied with all of the projects that we do here at ATC.

Enclosed Trailers

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

You could have had an enclosed trailer.  My guess is that many people think they can’t afford an enclosed trailer but have they considered all of the advantages?  First of all what did you spend on the equipment or toys you are transporting.  An enclosed trailer will keep them safe and secure.  Also an enclosed trailer will help keep your investments out of the public eye, I am sure you have heard the saying out of sight out of mind.  With an enclosed trailer you also create mobile storage for your toys. You also now have a mobile garage to work on your toys when you get to your destination.  Motiv and ATC have launched an all new line of inexpensive enclosed trailers called the ravin light series.  You might be surprised how inexpensive it can be to get a quality built enclosed trailer.  Check out our enclosed trailers on our website at www.aluminumtrailer.com

Mobile Power Trailers

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

The trailer industry is evolving. Fifty years ago it was mainly cargo and concession style trailers and there weren’t a whole of lot of options for folks to choose from. In the last twenty years, car haulers, gooseneck and the like have gained popularity. There are also many more choices for people to go when they are looking for a trailer company. That list narrows however, when someone is looking for a specific, custom application use for a trailer such as for a mobile power source. This is a trailer which needs extra engineering, quality control and production know how to produce.

 The Aluminum Trailer Company has partnered with several national companies to do various projects in the mobile power trailer arena. One outfit that ATC has worked frequently with deals directly with the National Guard on various projects. One such project was a mobile power and communications trailer. The specific project called for trailers which would be up fitted with satellite and generator power sources. The trailers would then be mobilized in the event of a natural disaster when communication and power sources were down. The trailer could be used to organize critical relief response to the disaster.

 If you are working with a government entity or with a private organization and have a need for a mobile power source then the Aluminum Trailer Company can help design and build what you are looking for. Visit us at www.aluminumtrailer.com for a wide range of examples of not just mobile power trailers, but also communication, command center and other types as well.

Mobile Office Trailer

Thursday, June 17th, 2010

What would you consider a mobile office?  Those trailers you see on construction sites that are only temporary.  The kind that look like stripped down mobile homes?  What if a guy with a Blackberry conducts all his business at the local Starbucks while using their signal? Is that his office? 

I guess that really either could be considered a mobile office.  However, the one seems a little undermanned and the other a little too permanent.  If you are looking for a truly mobile office you need a mobile office trailer.  That’s where I can help. I build trailers for ATC (www.aluminumtrailer.com) and among all the trailers that we build are mobile office trailers.  Why a trailer?  Well really it’s the wheels!  You can’t get any more mobile than that.

Whether it’s an office for fire control, construction site, service business you are truly mobile with wheels under your office.  We have built mobile office trailers for all of those and many more.  It’s exactly what you need.   And did I mention you can still have your Blackberry and Starbucks.  Happy Trailering!

Specialty Trailers

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

Have you ever wondered if what you read in the newspapers or see on television is true or accurate? Especially if it is an advertisement or a commercial, you have to wonder!

Well my wife and I were watching television a few weeks ago and a commercial came on for the Petroleum and Natural Gas Alliance.   All I can figure out is that it must be an umbrella group or an industry trade association putting out their message.   The spokeswoman was talking about all the great things that do for America’s energy independence, and how reliable it is (this was before the gas rig accident in the Gulf of Mexico). Then she mentioned how this industry creates 9 million jobs for America because of their efforts.

Now my wife being somewhat skeptical to begin with said, “well that’s a little hard to believe”.   Of course I’m used to arguing with her, and I immediately said the spokeswoman was probably right. You see I work building all kinds of trailers (find us at www.aluminumtrailer.com) and it just so happens that we build specialty trailers.

In this case we build specialty trailers for you guessed it the Gas industry.

We have built specialty trailers for oil well drilling, for soil sampling, for the work crews, for surveying, etc.  We have built specialty trailers for at least eight different companies that I am sure are part of that organization. I can say for a fact they do create jobs for America, and I am thankful that one of them is mine.   So the next time you read or see something making a claim.  It just might true.  Happy Trailering!

         We are really thankful right now at ATC and Motiv, because over the past months our business has really picked up.  It’s a great change from the past year or two when economic times were so tough.  One area of our business in particular has been extremely busy: our commercial trailer product line seems to be growing every day, which is so exciting for us. 

            ATC has always been an industry leader in the commercial trailer field.  We pride ourselves on our ability to design and build literally anything our customers can imagine.  In the past few years we have taken our steel trailer product, the Motiv line, and adapted that to make a superb commercial trailer platform – especially for the customer who has a tighter budget.  We are constantly looking for newer and more innovative solutions for our corporate and commercial clients. 

            One example of a totally unique trailer series we built were our remote fish tagging trailers.  These lightweight ATC all-aluminum trailers carried special equipment to tag salmon in remote areas, as well as stainless steel countertops, custom sinks, and cabinetry that enabled the trailer to run fish through its machinery right at crucial streams and rivers.  We have also designed many different vending units, apparel and parts display trailers, a BBQ trailer complete with open porch on the back to display a smoker, even mobile bar trailers! 

            If you want to see a small sample of what we can do for your business at ATC and Motiv, check out our Custom Trailers section of our website.  If you don’t see exactly what you need, don’t worry.  Just give us a call and let us design your perfect solution.  Our only limitation is your imagination.

Commerical TrailerATC 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!

Command Center

Over the years we have done our fair share of command center trailers.  Command center trailers can be used for many different things.  We have customers that have used command centers for training purposes as well as safety training for staff of fire and police departments.  We are currently doing one of our largest and most expensive command centers to date.  This particular command center is for the Louisiana Parish Sherriff’s office.  During certain times of the year it will no doubt be tested in use.  Our command centers come completely finished from major power generators to full communication capabilities.  We do it all. We can even install specially supplied parts for a command center that is requested by a customer.  We have the experience and the engineering department to supply full 3D prints and make sure that your command center gets to you exactly the way that you specify.

img_2931Weatherford International Oil Services just received their first commercial trailer from the Aluminum Trailer Company.  Weatherford contacted ATC when they had noticed the commercial trailers on our website http://www.aluminumtrailer.com/custom trailers/field service .  They needed a rugged commercial trailer that could be used as an office in just about any environment.  With the numerous commercial trailer pictures on the ATC website they were able to pick a design that worked for them and get their trailers extremely fast.  After narrowing down the options and determining the floor plan of their commercial trailer they decided on an affordable solution.  Pictured is a similar unit to what Weatherford purchased.

img_29291I personally had the opportunity to take Weatherford their first commercial trailer.  These particular units will be working in the beautiful state of Wyoming.  As you may or may not know the temperatures can be very cold in Wyoming so these commercial trailers were designed with an exceptional insulation package.  The crews will be able to be comfortable in the extreme cold temperatures they called upon to work in.  Buy purchasing a custom commercial trailer to do the job Weatherford needs done, they will be able provide a work environment that will help retain employees and attract new ones as they need to hire more with future business.

With our capabilities and experience you will be pleasantly surprised how easy and affordable a custom commercial trailer solution can be for you and your company.

Custom Trailer

Specialty Trailers

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Specialty TrailersIf you have found this blog, most likely you typed in the key word: specialty trailer or specialty trailers.  There are many different manufacturers that claim that they do custom trailers, but sometimes there are projects that we come across that are more than just a custom trailer, they are truly unique builds; they are specialty trailers.  When it comes to building a specialty trailer you have to change the rules completely.  The project can be loosely defined as a trailer because it is mobile, but it may not serve the function of being a car hauler, a motorcycle trailer, a cargo trailer or any other normal cargo moving needs.  These trailers can serve so many different functions that it can become hard to even define what a specialty trailer is.  To see how much variety this cateSpecialty Trailersgory can encompass check out the “Custom Trailers” section on the menu to the left.

ATC and Motiv trailers does build standard trailers as well as some very custom trailers but where we truly excel is building a true specialty trailer.  We have a specialty sales team that focuses on working on corporate trailer projects that can fulfill any task.  Once the function of the mobile unit is understood, sales works with our staff of highly trained engineers to design a complete unit from the base frame to completion that will fulfill your complete list of needs.  When the trailer is built, it is specifically designed for the end use it will have which allows you to get a trailer that is built stronger, will last longer, and is easier to use.  This is what makes a true specialty trailer and no one builds them better than ATC and Motiv.

Commercial Trailers for Corporate Demands

Friday, February 13th, 2009

At ATC and Motiv Trailers we realize that commercial trailers can be some of the most challenging projects.  A commercial trailer will need to have several things; a unique layout with sometimes very tight tolerances, a high level of quality, and multiple units need to be produced as identically as possible.  With this in mind ATC and Motiv Trailers has devoted a team that works solely with our corporate trailers to ensure they are built to the highest standards with the level of detail that you require.

Our procedures are smooth, simple, and easy to duplicate.  We start by getting a clear direction for the project by getting a list of the specifications or requirements for the project.  Our corporate trailer team then works to help design a base layout that will meet all of the functional requirements of the project.  Our dedicated staff of engineers will take the design and do a full set of 3D prints.  After prints are complete our application engineers will review the design to ensure that it is up to the task and demands that commercial trailers meet on a day to day basis.  Prints can be reviewed and re-reviewed for any changes by our commercial customers to make sure that the trailer will fully meet their needs.  Once the layout is approved then it goes through our production line with highly skilled craftsman that are accustomed to working on large custom projects through to completion.

Take a look at the great variety of commercial trailer projects that we have worked on in the past.  Contact us at 574-773-9031 to discuss your project today.
