What AM Trailers does

AM Trailers Corp (legal entity A-M Trailers Corp., incorporated in Florida in 2000) is a privately held, family-owned wholesale and refurbished equipment dealer specializing in intermodal transportation equipment. The company buys, sells, and refurbishes container chassis, dry trailers, refrigerated trailers (reefers), lowboy trailers, flatbed trailers, generator sets (gensets), and shipping containers, representing brands such as Monan, Stoughton, Strick, Great Dane, Hyundai, Fruehauf, Thermo King, and Carrier. It operates from a corporate headquarters in a Miami container yard, with an additional office in Medley, Florida, and sources inventory through a partnership with Equipment Investors Group (EIG) and a contract with GE for aftermarket trailer sales, giving the network access to approximately 12,000 trailers.

The business serves shipping companies, stevedores and ports, transportation companies, and industrial contractors across North America, South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales with unit-level pricing (e.g., 20ft chassis at $2,600; 40ft chassis at $2,700), supported by equipment inspection before shipment, refurbishment services, and international logistics/export coordination. The go-to-market is a sales-led direct model: customers browse a bilingual (English/Spanish) website and complete purchases via phone consultation with sales representatives.

The operating model is asset-light distribution: AM Trailers does not manufacture equipment but aggregates supply from manufacturer relationships and the GE/EIG network to deliver competitive pricing and availability to small and large buyers. The company claims a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee and 40 years of combined sales/service experience in the trailer industry. No public funding, management team, subs
