Additionally, Utility Trailer highlighted its TrailerConnect portal and app during the event, which it says sends telematics data for both the TRU and trailer to frontends, fleet operators and transport management or enterprise resource planning systems.

“We’ve been working tirelessly to get to this moment, and our expansive dealer network is now ready to serve customers across the continent,” remarked Andrew Bennett, vice president and member of the family business’ fourth generation leadership.
