Putting 15,000 miles a year on a trailer is serious business. So is delivering generator service to residential and commercial customers in Maine! That’s why Christopher Moulton, Vice President of Mid Maine Generator, chose EZ Hauler aluminum cargo trailers for his crew. 

To make sure their customers don’t get left in the dark, Mid Maine Generator needs to be ready to go at all times. With three locations, this busy operation doesn’t have time to waste with trailers that don’t pull their weight. They need a rugged work wagon that can haul heavy generators and all the tools of the trade in all kinds of weather.  

Considering a generator alone may weigh up to 600 lbs. and the pad it sits on is around 200 lbs, the crew needs a reliable trailer that’s ready to maximize payload. Because aluminum is about one-third the density of steel at an impressive two-thirds of the strength, it’s ideal for reducing trailer weight without sacrificing capacity. An aluminum trailer from EZ Hauler not only maximizes hauling potential, it saves wear and tear on the tow vehicles, too!  



Mid Maine Generator previously used open style trailers. Chris Moulton explained that moving to enclosed aluminum trailers from EZ Hauler not only saves time, it also helps prevent damage to tools and equipment. Because items can be safely stored inside the trailer, even if it’s parked outside, enclosed trailers save the Mid Maine Generator crew time loading and unloading equipment on a daily basis. Plus, while traveling in inclement weather, there’s no need to worry about tarps or other coverings on an open trailer; everything is safe and dry inside. 

EZ Hauler builds the aluminum trailer features a company like Mid Maine Generator needs to get the job done right. We’re talking features like rooftop ladder racks with D-rings; spring-assisted rear ramps for easy loading; water resistant trailer decking; electrical or lighting packages; loads of tie-down options, cabinets, and more! Plus, screwless bonded side panels make it easy to add custom wraps, decals, or other branding to the outside of the trailer. 



EZ Hauler Trailers from ALCOM delivered the lightweight, dependable solution Mid Maine Generator needs, and this happy customer is hitched on to our trailers for the long haul. 

“We have really put them through the wringer, and they’ve been a great trailer for us!” says Chris Moulton of the EZ Hauler cargo trailers he chose for Mid Maine Generator. We think you’ll agree with Chris and our other happy customers. Ready to start YOUR aluminum trailer buying journey?
