Updated Nov 28, 2012

On December 15th, Witzco Trailers will auction off a 2013 Step-Deck 50 ton capacity trailer through Alex Lyon and Son Auctions in Mays Landing, New Jersey. One hundred precent of the proceeds from this auction will be donated to the Hurricane Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund. Alex Lyon and Son Auction will waive their customary fees for this sale and LAP Transport will waive their transport fee from Sarasota, Florida to Mays Landing, New Jersey.

Witzco Trailers, Inc. is a family owned and operated business since 1938 producing a variety of heavy duty transportation trailers. The Company which originated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania moved its operations to Sarasota Florida in 1979. Several family members have spent many years vacationing at the Jersey Shore, in Atlantic City and Brigantine. CEO of Witzco Trailers, Steve Witzer, is also a resident of Ventnor, New Jersey. “We feel compelled to help,” states Mr. Witzer. “As soon as we heard about this fund to help those in New Jersey who have been afflicted by Hurricane Sandy, we decided this would be the right thing to do.”
