Let's talk trailers. Trucking companies must utilize trailers efficiently, keep them well maintained, track them closely, and manage the risk that comes with them. And those trailers require a lot of close management. Who should own the trailer? What should be in a trailer lease? How can you keep your trailer business out of a nuclear verdict? How can you fight back against unethical towing charges? How can brokers avoid risk in a power only program? What are some good risk management practices when it comes to trailers? This panel discussion would cover best risk management practices for trailer ownership, trailer leasing, trailer interchange, trailer pools, power-only programs for brokers, motor vehicle accident liability protection, fighting predatory towing practices, and more.
