Transfer Trailers
Our steel transfer trailers feature an innovative “T-track” system that allows for worry-free operations. With this design, compacting and unloading materials happens in a highly efficient way that other manufacturers simply can’t match.
Unlike competitors using wall tracks prone to warping, our system uses the subframe, centring the ejection ram. Taking this approach means our floor trailers enjoy a longer lifespan and are less prone to damage risks. It also prevents binding issues during loading and unloading.
With an ACE transfer trailer, you’ll get a 384" & 456” stroke 5-stage telescopic cylinder with 99,000 lbs of compacting force. Our unique approach to moving floor trailers includes a carrier bearing attached to the “T-track” system, which reduces weight on the cylinder when in full extension.
Unlike other transfer trailers, our system prioritizes efficiency and durability for more prolonged equipment lifespan and smoother work – especially for asphalt operations.
Our “T-track” push-out system makes unloading so much more efficient, in contrast to moving floor trailers, which take 20–40 minutes to empty. Our system completes unloading in under two minutes, so you can take care of unloading several cubic yards of material in next to no time.
Not only does this improve productivity across the board, but it minimizes downtime in waste management and disposal operations.
Every ACE trailer has been meticulously engineered for municipal and commercial applications. The transfer trailer ejects horizontally to eliminate any risk of tipping over at landfills, making the discharge of materials much safer and more stable.
We are committed to constantly improving our trailer design to deliver enduring reliability and smoother daily operations for customers across all industries.
Precision and efficiency converge as we take care to place each and every material in exactly the right place. Every part of our transfer trailers have been designed in a way that eliminates unnecessary weight while being strong enough to withstand the pressure of daily use.
In striving for the optimal strength-to-weight ratio, we craft every trailer box to endure heavy use without compromising on quality or efficiency – even in the most demanding operational environments.
The hydraulically operated top door makes top-loading and compaction processes so much easier. Ideal for stationary, self-contained trailer operations, having this functionality can make your work much more efficient across various waste management applications – no matter the size of the job or the type of waste being disposed of.
Having manufactured steel transfer trailers since 1973, we are industry leaders in delivering trailers that will economically transport high tonnages of solid waste to distant disposal sites.
