Trailcon Leasing Inc. will mark another milestone July 2 when it opens its new facility in Calgary.

The state-of-the-art facility measures 20,000 square feet, with another 5,000 square feet available for expansion. It features eight trailer bays, with space for an additional three. A large fenced-in yard, secured by truck gates, has the capacity to accommodate approximately 120 trailers.

Branch manager Nick Reid is excited about the move, noting, “this new facility will enhance our service to customers, as well as provide drivers and technicians with a more comfortable environment.”

The Calgary building is identical to a facility that opened in Edmonton in January.

“This marks the opening of our third facility in less than a year,” says Trailcon Leasing President Jerry Brown. “These expanded, modern facilities will allow Trailcon Leasing to accommodate its growing customer base for years to come, while allowing staff to maintain our exceptional standard of service.”

Established in 1992, Trailcon is one of the largest trailer and intermodal equipment rental, leasing and service leaders nationwide. Besides its 75,000-square-foot state-of-the-art head office in Brampton, ON, Trailcon has branches in Cornwall, ON; Edmonton and Calgary, AB; and Surrey, BC.

Its fleet of more than 9,000 units consists of dry vans, refrigerated and heated trailers, chassis, and storage trailers. Trailcon offers short-term rentals and long-term leases of its equipment to a variety of industries. A dedicated Fleet Maintenance Program services not only Trailcon's own fleet, but also over 20,000 customer-owned units.
