If your hauling needs dictate hauling multiple cars, a stacker trailer may just be the perfect solution. Stacker trailers give you the ability to haul cars double decker style. Stacker trailers are shorter and easier to maneuver behind your tow vehicle. Stacker trailers incorporate a car lift into the design of the trailer to allow for stacking the cars inside. It may be a rear gate lift. In this type of lift, the rear door doubles as the car lift to the second level. The second level is a full length fixed floor, and the car lift is on the outside of the trailer. Or a rail lift may be used. lift may be. This type of lift, housed completely inside the stacker trailer, has a stationary platform that moves up and down inside the stacker trailer. In this type of car lift, the second level is fixed in front of the lift mechanism. Both have their benefits. The rear gate lift frees up floor space inside the trailer for other uses. However, the rear gate lift requires additional space behind and above the trailer to operate. The interior rail lift is typically less expensive.
Stacker trailers are commonly towed by Class A motor homes. Stacker trailers are similar height to Class A motor homes and can be painted to match the tow vehicle. In shopping for stacker trailers, weight is generally an issue. Stacker trailers may be built with a steel frame, wood floor, steel rail lift, all of which add significantly to the overall weight of the stacker trailers. Another option is all aluminum stacker trailers. These stacker trailers frames are all aluminum, aluminum floors and aluminum rail lifts.

ATC and Motiv Trailers builds a full line of stacker car haulers. We build them in bumper pull and gooseneck configurations in either steel or an aluminum frame. We also recently added a single stage hydraulic lift gate as well as a hydraulic screw lift gate. The hydraulic screw lift gate is much easier to operate and allows a customer to raise and lower the lift inside a building without the 8′ lift posts extending above the height of the trailer.
Customers use stacker car haulers for a myriad of uses. Many customers use the stacker lift gate trailers for transporting race cars or motorcycles out to the race track. By adding a lift, racers are able to load a second race car and bring loads more gear. And what racer doesn’t need room for more tools?
Another popular use for stacker car haulers is for what we call the “RV Enthusiast” market. These are the people who spend great amounts of time traveling the world in their motorhome and still want to bring along many of the comforts and conveniences from home. Once they stop for the night, they still have all their toys from home like jet skis, motorcycles, ATV’s, and yes, even the SUV.

There are many reasons why an ATC or Motiv stacker trailer might be right for you. Most of our customers choose to go with a stacker trailer because they have multiple vehicles or extensive cargo and already have a heavy duty tow vehicle. ATC and Motiv stacker trailers are built in either the bumper pull or gooseneck design.
There are many lift options that can be installed in your custom stacker trailer. The old tried and true method is to install a standard 14′ hydraulic 4-post lift. These lifts can be installed with a split rail, full floor or with a removable center panel design. Seeing as how we are “The Aluminum Trailer Company” we thought we would be remiss if we did not offer a complete aluminum frame lift. Back in 2001 we engineered and designed our first all aluminum lift system and have been improving it ever since. On of the largest benefits to all aluminum lift system is the light weigh design. When compared to a traditional steel frame lift, an aluminum frame lift can save aprox 400#. We also offer a full rear lift gate model for our tag and gooseneck stacker trailers. A liftgate trailer allows for greater efficiency loading and has been very popular in many race crowds.
