The same team who design and builds the Super Haul trailers Aspen is known for, design and builds the M-Series CONTRACTOR lowbed, our 55/60 Ton Hydraulic Removable Triaxle Lowbed with flip 4th axle. A few features that set our trailer apart are the T1 steel, covered rear frame, Aspen swingout outriggers, mechanical ide height control on the gooseneck and 18″ deck height. We understand trailers that offer flexibility, make more money for their owners. These features and more are why heavy haulers who know our capabilities choose the Aspen M-Series CONTRACTOR lowbed. For more than 45 years, customers have relied on Aspen trailers to #HaulMore™ every single day.
