Built for heavier freight and longer hauls, the 48-foot road trailer gives your operation the capacity to handle serious volume. Tandem axles, a spacious interior, and durable construction make it a reliable choice for businesses that can’t afford downtime on the road. Load it up and get moving.
High-Capacity Hauling on a Tandem Axle At 48 feet with a tandem axle, this trailer delivers close to the maximum cargo capacity in our road trailer lineup, handling large freight volumes for demanding over-the-road and on-site storage needs.
Road-Ready and On-Site Capable Like all Eagle Leasing road trailers, the 48ft unit can transport cargo anywhere within the continental United States while also functioning as secure on-site storage when not in transit. One trailer, two uses.
Choice of Door Types Available with swing doors or overhead roll-up doors, and can be equipped with logistic posts and e-tracks for securing and organizing loads during transport.
DOT-Inspected and Well-Maintained Every Eagle Leasing road trailer is maintained at one of our state-of-the-art facilities and is DOT-inspected before delivery so you can count on safe, reliable equipment every time.
Near-Maximum Capacity with a Bit More Flexibility The 48ft trailer carries a substantial load while being slightly easier to navigate than a full 53ft unit. For operations that need high volume without the added length of our largest trailer, it is a practical and efficient choice.
Move Cargo, Not Just Store It Storage trailers stay on site. Road trailers go where your business needs them to go. The 48ft unit gives you high-volume over-the-road capability without needing to step all the way up to a 53ft trailer.
Secure On Site When Not in Transit When parked on your lot or at a job site, the trailer functions as secure, weather-resistant storage. Compatible with our Eagle Lock, kingpin locks, and glad hand locks for full on-site security.
Backed by Eagle Leasing Since 1967 Every road trailer in our fleet is maintained at our state-of-the-art facilities and delivered by our professional drivers. Routine maintenance is provided free of charge for all rental equipment.
Not required, but roll-up doors are faster to open and close at a dock and don’t need swing clearance behind the trailer. Swing doors (barn doors) are standard on road trailers and work fine at a dock. Roll-up doors are a common preference for high-volume dock operations.
Yes. Our road trailer rentals include routine wear and tear at our repair facilities. Tires, brakes, lights, and standard mechanical maintenance are all covered under normal use. Damage outside of routine wear (accidents, abuse, neglect) is billed separately per your rental agreement.
Storage containers and office containers are available across every branch. Storage trailers, road trailers, office trailers, flatbeds, and specialty units (open side, high cubes, modified units) are stocked at select branches based on regional demand. When you request a quote, we’ll confirm what’s available at the branch closest to your site — and coordinate transfers from another branch when we need to.
DOT annual inspections are required for all road trailers. Our rental trailers are inspected on schedule and documented before they go out. If your lease runs past the annual inspection date, we coordinate the re-inspection with you.
Standard dock height in North America is 48 to 52 inches off the ground. Our storage and road trailers are built to line up with standard dock heights, so you can back to a loading dock and roll freight on and off with a forklift or pallet jack.
For ground-level storage, steel is the right call. Steel containers are more secure, more weather-resistant, and stand up to impact, theft attempts, and rough handling a lot better than aluminum. Aluminum is lighter and makes sense in trailers where weight matters for over-the-road hauling — but it’s not the right material for static on-site storage.
