Don't let the name fool you. Texas Trailers is among Florida's most complete builders, retailers and service centers for trailers of all kinds, from traditional equipment trailers and car haulers to dump and cargo trailers.
Gainesville, where the company is headquartered, has strong demand in heavy civil, commercial and residential construction — and the region also is a hotbed for disaster response staging as it is centrally located to many hotspots throughout the Gulf Coast.
These factors were instrumental in Texas Trailers bringing the Thunder Creek lineup of fuel and service trailers to the region. This includes the No CDL, No Hazmat fuel and service trailers, as well as bulk economy fuel trailers that serve a broad client base from agriculture to disaster response and private facility staging.
New models available at Texas Trailers include the No-Hazmat fuel and service trailer (MTT), the multi-tank oil trailer (MTO), and service and lube trailer (SLT). Bulk economy solutions include the manufacturer's economy fuel and service trailers (EV) with capacities up to 990 gallons.
"Texas Trailers is unique among our retail partners as it understands the entire trailer lifecycle from cradle to grave as a manufacturer, seller, service provider and support center," says Larry Lea, vice president of sales, Thunder Creek Equipment. "Trailers are all they do — which makes them uniquely qualified to serve a diverse market that includes a strong mix of construction and agriculture, as well as urban and rural communities. There is a fuel and service trailer to meet all of these applications — and as hurricane season approaches, they will be a vital partner in keeping the region fueled if disaster hits."
"We build a premium American trailer, and Thunder Creek builds a premium American fuel trailer," says Rick Croft, president, Texas Trailers. "We manage our partners' hauling, storage and logistics operations needs with trailers of all shapes and sizes — the addition of the Thunder Creek lineup gives our customers a powerful platform to control their own fuel and lube operations. It also allows them to be more flexible with the workforce they have as the majority of the solutions do not require the driver to have a CDL or a Hazmat endorsement. Thunder Creek revolutionized this style, and we're proud to carry these trailers here in Florida."
