What Is a Container Chassis?
A container chassis is a steel frame trailer built specifically to carry shipping containers over the road. It’s the backbone of intermodal freight, connecting ports, rail yards, warehouses, and job sites across the country.
Our inventory covers a wide range of chassis types:
- Fixed-length and extendable
- Gooseneck, straight frame, and drop frame
- Tri-axle, tandem, and single axle
- Models built for 20′, 40′, and 45′ containers
No matter the load or route, the right chassis makes the job smoother and safer.
How to Choose the Right Chassis
Picking the right trailer can make or break your workflow. The trailer experts here at Hale are standing by to help you find the perfect fit for your hauling needs.:
Match the Chassis to the Container
- 20′ containers — Use a 20’ fixed chassis or 20-40′ slider
- 40′ containers — Choose a 40’ straight frame or gooseneck
- 45′ containers — Require longer chassis with specific configurations
Suspension Type
- Spring ride: Simple, reliable, cost-effective
- Hutch: Durable with low maintenance needs
- Slider: Lets you adjust axle positioning for weight distribution
Number of Axles
- Tandem (2 axles): Standard for most highway hauling
- Tri-axle: For heavier loads or when required by local DOT regulations
Find the Right Chassis with Hale Trailer
Here’s what sets us apart: we keep freight moving, businesses running, and bottom lines strong, with the inventory, experience, and service to back it up.
- Huge Selection: Extensive chassis stock, new and used
- Nationwide Reach: Locations across the Eastern U.S. mean faster pickup and better availability
- Trusted Brands: ACE, Behnke, Hyundai, and more
- Knowledgeable Staff: Our sales reps know trailers inside and out—they’ve been doing it for decades
You can get a chassis just about anywhere. But few dealers back it up with real industry experience and service like we do.
Trailer Chassis Questions
Can I haul more than one container size with the same chassis?
Yes, extendable and slider chassis are designed to handle multiple sizes, making them perfect if your loads change frequently.
What’s the difference between a gooseneck and a straight frame chassis?
Gooseneck chassis allow containers to sit lower, improving clearance and stability. Straight frames are often more straightforward and more affordable.
Do you offer financing?
We sure do. Ask your local rep about financing options available for both new and used chassis.
Can I buy a chassis that’s not in stock at my location?
Yes, we can coordinate transfers between locations or even arrange delivery depending on your needs.
