Purpose-Built Chassis Leasing for Your Operation

When you’re moving freight in and out of New Bedford, MA, you need more than a generic trailer—you need the right chassis for the job. Contract Leasing Corporation provides custom chassis leasing solutions tailored to your freight profile, routes, and operational demands.

With multiple locations and a national network behind every unit we lease, you get the support of a large fleet provider with the responsiveness of a local partner in the New Bedford area.

Why Custom Chassis Leasing Makes Sense

Whether you’re a regional carrier, drayage provider, intermodal operator, port drayage specialist, or a shipper with specific handling requirements, custom chassis leasing can help you:

  • Match Equipment to Your Freight
    Configure chassis for specific container sizes, weights, and cargo types—reducing damage, delays, and inefficiency.
  • Control Costs Without Sacrificing Quality
    Avoid the capital expense of purchasing equipment while still accessing modern, specialized chassis.
  • Improve Fleet Flexibility
    Scale up or down based on seasonal swings, new contracts, or market changes without being locked into ownership.
  • Enhance Safety & Compliance
    Lease well-maintained, DOT-compliant chassis and reduce downtime, roadside issues, and safety risks.
  • Focus on Operations, Not Upkeep
    Let our team handle maintenance schedules and compliance requirements so your team can focus on moving freight.

Our Custom Chassis Solutions

We work with you to understand your routes, volume, facilities, and freight characteristics, then design a leasing program around your needs. Depending on your operation, your custom chassis lease may include:

  • Container Chassis (20’, 40’, 45’, 48’, and 53’)
    For standard and high-cube containers, with options for slider and fixed configurations.
  • Heavy-Duty & Specialized Chassis
    For overweight, high-density, or specialized cargo, with enhanced structural components, suspension options, and tire configurations.
  • Extendable & Slider Chassis
    Flexible, multi-position chassis for varying container sizes and load requirements.
  • Reefer-Ready Chassis
    Configured for refrigerated containers with generator set compatibility and specialized mounting.
  • Custom Specifications & Add-Ons
    • Specific suspension and axle configurations
    • Tire and wheel specifications
    • Lift options
    • Safety and visibility enhancements (lighting, conspicuity tape, etc.)

Every leasing program is built around your operational reality—from port and yard conditions to average load profiles and route distances.
