Customers don’t just want a shed; they want a backyard solution. We sat down with Pro Tech Trailers in Eagleville, Tennessee to unpack how utility trailers become a powerful second income stream for shed dealers—without turning your lot into a logistics headache. With decades in high-precision automotive integration, the Pro Tech team translates production discipline into clean welds, consistent wiring, LED lighting, and thoughtful features like fold-flat ramps and setback jacks. The result is a lineup that feels tailored to shed buyers: dependable 10-foot utilities, versatile single- and tandem-axle options, and 20-foot equipment haulers for the folks hauling tractors, side-by-sides, or project cars.

The magic is in the model. Pro Tech handles the heavy lifting—literally. They arrive with a telehandler, unload, torque, test, stage, and secure. Dealers get plug-and-play marketing: private asset libraries, rent-to-own signage, seasonal promos, and performance incentives. On the finance side, they’re disciplined about risk with age, license, insurance, address matching, and soft stability checks that keep default rates low in a category known for theft and churn. For the lot, that means fewer headaches and more repeat revenue—especially when a trailer shopper returns to buy a shed.

We also dive into materials, specs, and why fit-and-finish matters when you’re selling to neighbors who notice details. Steel is U.S.-sourced from the recycling stream, floors are treated pine, couplers are standardized, and the lineup balances utility with rent-to-own realities. Territory is performance-led rather than rigidly exclusive, enabling growth across Tennessee and neighboring states while protecting clean dealer channels. If you’ve been searching for a consignment product that complements sheds, draws drive-by traffic, and protects margins, this playbook delivers.
