Prime Trailer acquires OnRamp operations

May 8, 2014
Prime Trailer Leasing, a provider of rental and leasing services for semitrailers, has purchased OnRamp Trailer Services from CR England.

Prime Trailer Leasing, a provider of rental and leasing services for semitrailers, has purchased OnRamp Trailer Services from C R England, the largest refrigerated transportation company in the world.
“The acquisition of OnRamp is a significant step toward better serving our customers in the semitrailer segment of the transportation industry,” said Wes Gardner, chief executive officer and founder of Prime Trailer Leasing. “We will now add the strong brand recognition of Wabash National, Transcraft, East, Manac, Trail King, and Construction Trailer Specialists along with our existing trailer lines.”
As part of the acquisition, the company is dropping the word “Leasing” from its name and will be known simply as Prime Trailer. “We are now able to offer parts and service for our customers,” said Gardner. “We’ve added 29 full-service bays at our Salt Lake City location and 12 bays in Reno to Prime Trailer’s existing operations.”
This acquisition will strengthen Prime Trailer’s market presence, enhance its competitive position and enable better service for its customers.
Colorado-based Prime Trailer focuses on new and used refrigerated trailers, dry vans, and flatbeds. By adding OnRamp Trailer, which provides parts, service, and trailer sales, Prime Trailer will gain market share in the semitrailer business.
