Buy Semi Trailer

When it comes to the dry van trailers, flatbed trailers, refrigerated trailers, lift gate trailers, or other semi trailers your business needs to operate, how you choose to acquire them is an important tactical decision. Whether you are in the trucking, warehousing, or transportation business, getting cartage trailers, storage trailers, and over the road trailers in the way that best aligns with your financial strategy is critical to your success.

Does that mean renting a semi trailer? Would a long-term trailer lease provide financial advantages? Or does buying a semi trailer make more sense? There are many factors that go into answering those questions.

Renting a semi trailer involves entering into a short-term contract with a provider like Boxwheel, and often is a tactic for addressing an immediate, generally temporary deficit in transportation capacity. In some cases, however, it is a long-range or ongoing strategy.

For fast access to high-quality semi trailers, renting is a great option. There are, of course, some drawbacks to renting. For example, the rates might be higher than with a long-term lease or a purchase. And, some people feel there is a greater sense of security and continuity with trailers that they lease or own.

Buying a semi trailer is a significant investment. Like purchasing a building for your company, buying a trailer gives you many rights in how it is used or modified during the payment period and full rights once it is paid off. And, every payment you make on a trailer from a trailer sales company like Boxwheel builds your equity.

Of course, many operations, as successful as they may be, might not ever have the financial resources to purchase a semi trailer. Another drawback to owning a trailer is that operating and maintaining it is now fully your responsibility. Also, you no longer have the flexibility to respond to changing business conditions as easily as you would if you were renting or leasing.

Some semi trailer providers specialize in one area: rentals, leased trailers, or trailers for sale. If you are unsure about how to meet your trailer needs, or anticipate that your needs will change over time, it makes sense to work with a company like Boxwheel that has extensive expertise in renting, leasing, and selling trailers from a wide range of manufacturers including Great Dane, Wabash, and Utility.

Highways, 2-lane roads, rough terrain, cities, mountains, or damaged roads are just some of the roadways you may encounter. Semi-trailers are made to perform better in certain environments, which can help make hauls safer and more efficient.

Your budget. This is probably one of the more important factors in choosing a used semi-trailer. Obviously, certain types of trailers will be more expensive based on their size and function. But you also want to think about how the trailer is constructed.

Aluminum trailers often have a higher up-front cost but are durable and typically require less upkeep. Steel trailers can be sturdier, which may be helpful in rough terrain, but can cost more in maintenance. Read more about the differences between aluminum and steel trailers.

Expect certain types of semi-trailers to be more expensive simply because of their function. For example, a used walking floor trailer will likely be more expensive than a basic used dry van. Walking floor trailers have hydraulic functions and the ability to carry heavier freight, making it a more costly trailer.

When choosing a used semi-trailer, consider whether or not these types of features are necessary. In some cases, they may not be needed, but may help streamline business operations, making them a worthwhile investment.

Additionally, consider the long-term investment of the trailer. Will you be able to use it for years to come, or will your needs change in the short-term? If you plan to use the trailer for many years, purchasing is likely your best option.

Other factors that may affect the weight are type of flooring and trailer construction. Aluminum is lighter, which may be a good option if you need to adhere to specific weight regulations. But steel may feel like a studier option.

At the end of the day, choosing the best used semi-trailer requires a reputable dealer. Working with a knowledgeable representative will help you understand the differences between semi-trailer types and their features, and make sure your trailer investment aligns with your needs.
