Minnesota-based Anderson Trucking Service Inc. (ATS) has taken delivery of its first 19-axle trailer, designed by ATS with the help of Trail King Industries. The new trailer will begin hauling customer loads this month.

Over the last five years, the ATS Heavy Haul Division of ATS Specialized Inc. has grown from having two 13-axle trailers to more than 50. The four-axle tractor fleet has grown to 110 in that same period.
The 19-axle design will add flexibility to the transportation solutions ATS offers customers. The trailer has a 32-foot expandable (to 38-foot) flat deck for conventional heavy-haul cargoes that can be changed out for 50-foot beam deck for transporting equipment that needs these specialized requirements. The trailer can carry loads up to 205,000 pounds.
Rollie Anderson, president and CEO of ATS, said, "Recent demands in the wind, energy and power industries has allowed ATS to grow with our customers and add this type of equipment."
ATS is the largest truckload carrier in Minnesota, and the 42nd largest transportation company in the United States. ATS offers specialized, flatbed, heavy haul, van, logistics, specialized furniture, intermodal and international transportation services to companies throughout the world.
