What’s the most expensive trailer in your fleet? It may be the one that isn’t moving.

According to Trucking Dive, a recent report from American Transportation Research Institute found that carriers left roughly 10% of their equipment idle amid tightening capacity and record-high operating costs.

If underutilized trailers are weighing on your bottom line, Milestone is ready to buy.

“Depreciation, insurance, storage and maintenance can continue to add up even when a trailer isn’t moving,” said Brent Russell, Milestone Chief Commercial Officer. “Selling can free up working capital – while leasing or renting gives you the flexibility to add capacity back when demand calls for it.”

Whether you want to sell surplus trailers outright, explore a sale/leaseback solution or build a more flexible approach to fleet capacity, we can help you find the right strategy.

One fleet. One strategy. One nationwide partner.
