Utility Trailer Dealership to Open in May
U.S Highway 97 is a busy corridor, with an abundance of shipping traffic in the form of semitrailers. While there are plenty of businesses around that cater to passenger truck repair and maintenance, there aren’t as many places that work on semis. However, there will be soon with the expansion of Utility Trailer Sales of Oregon in Clackamas, whose new Redmond Dealership is under construction.
“There are no trailer shops in the area,”said Elizabeth Gallardo, future general manage of the dealership in Redmond. Utility Trailer will sell and provide maintenance and repair for semitrailers. “But there are a lot of semis with trailers that go through the area that might need service.”
Construction began in September, but planning for the expansion has been a 10-year project for owner Pat Hellsinger.
