Haulit Trailers ROI and Economic Benefit

One Haulit Trailer owner was using his truck bed, a 14’ flatbed trailer and hand unloading his deliveries. After working the ROI by investing in a Haulit Trailer, he knew that just the time savings alone would be a huge return on investment.  Rather than 3 deliveries per day he was able to make up to 6. This doubled his daily sales and reduced his risk of injury. 

Another Haulit Trailer owner decided to start offering home deliveries of his retail landscape and nursery products with a minimum purchase requirement within a 20 mile radius of his store. He increased his profits on his sales and increased the number of purchases made because he was able to better service his customers- specifically his weekend sales. He ended up purchasing another trailer just to help better service his weekend DIY’ers excited to work on a project even faster because it could be delivered.
