Finance a skeletal or container trailer for intermodal freight. Standard, twin-steer and tri-axle skeletal configurations for container transport operations.
Skeletal trailers are stripped-back frames with twist locks, built to carry shipping containers between ports, rail terminals and depots. They're the core of container cartage businesses.
Skeletals are simple and durable, with a steady resale market among container carriers, so lenders are generally comfortable with them. They look at the operator's work, often contracts with freight forwarders or container yards, and for used units at the frame, twist locks and running gear.
Tip: check which container sizes and combinations you'll carry before buying, such as one 40-foot, two 20-foot, or both. A trailer that suits more of the work you're offered is easier to keep busy.
