When it comes to choosing the best gondola for your needs, BENLEE stands out as a top manufacturer. Let’s explore why investing in a BENLEE gondola is a smart business decision.

1. Unmatched Durability with Hardox (TM) Steel

One of the standout features of BENLEE’s gondolas is the use of Hardox (TM) steel for the floors and walls. This isn’t just any steel – Hardox is a high-strength, wear-resistant steel that’s designed to withstand the toughest conditions. Here’s why this matters:

• Extended Lifespan: Hardox steel resists wear and tear better than traditional steel, meaning your trailer will last longer and require fewer repairs.
• Higher Payload Capacity: The strength of Hardox allows for thinner steel plates without compromising durability, resulting in a lighter unit that can carry more cargo.
• Reduced Fuel Consumption: A lighter trailer means improved fuel efficiency, saving you money in the long run.

2. Immediate Availability 48′ long with 8′ high walls are usually in stock.

In today’s fast-paced business environment, time is money. BENLEE understands this, which is why they keep popular models in stock for immediate shipment. Currently, they have 48′ x 8′ high side wall gondolas ready to go. This means:

• No Long Wait Times: You can get your new unit quickly and put it to work immediately.
