Trailer Bridge spending $9 million on containers

   Trailer Bridge said it had completed a $9 million investment in state-of-the-art high cube 53-foot steel containers.
   The Company will take delivery of 800 containers this month and another 325 will be delivered in October and November of this year.
   As a result, the average age of Trailer Bridge’s container fleet will be less than 3.5 years.
    “The new equipment purchases demonstrate the company’s commitment to providing its customers with the best possible service,” said Mark A. Tanner, chief executive officer. “Trailer Bridge will now have one of the most modern container fleets in the trade, coupled with the youngest fleet of vessels in the trade.”
   Trailer Bridge provides integrated inland and marine freight service to and from all points in the lower 48 states and Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic.
