Texas Trailers adds fuel trailers
Texas Trailers is bringing the Thunder Creek lineup of fuel and service trailers to Gainesville, Florida, a hotbed for disaster response staging due to its proximity to many hotspots throughout the Gulf Coast.
Thunder Creek’s equipment includes no-CDL 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.
“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,” Larry Lea, Thunder Creek vice president of sales, said in a news release. “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.”
New models available at Texas Trailers include the No-Hazmat Fuel and Service Trailer (MTT), Multi-Tank Oil Trailer (MTO), Service and Lube Trailer (SLT), the company reported. Bulk economy solutions include the manufacturer’s Economy Fuel and Service Trailer (EV) with capacities up to 990 gallons.
“We build a premium American trailer, and Thunder Creek builds a premium American fuel trailer,” said Rick Croft, Texas Trailers president. “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.”
