"A lighter trailer allows owners to maximize their load, with Ace's Michigan roll-off trailers able to carry up to 15,000 lbs. more cargo per trip," a spokesperson for Ace says. "This saves a significant amount of time by reducing the number of trips required, the n umber of driver hours and the quantity of fuel used. Also the maintenance is significantly lower than a frame style trailer."
Other Ace trailers include roll-off trailers, intermodal trailers, and Ace Rock trailers designed to transport extreme concrete boulder sizes.
Ace is a fourth-generation, family owned company founded in 1938.
