About Us - Total Trailers in Benton, Nashville & St. Louis

About Us

Our Story

At Total Trailers, family isn’t just part of our story—it’s the foundation of everything we do. Our journey began in 1980, when Steve Jones and his father, J.W., opened a small, four-bay repair shop in Benton with a simple but powerful vision: to provide reliable, high-quality trailer repair and service to hardworking individuals and businesses that keep America moving. Through dedication, craftsmanship, and a commitment to customer service, they built a strong reputation in the industry.

As demand for trailer service, sales, and parts grew, so did Total Trailers. In 1993, we expanded to St. Louis, allowing us to serve a broader customer base while maintaining the same level of personalized service that set us apart. Over the years, we continued to evolve, adapting to industry changes, expanding our service offerings, and investing in the latest technology and equipment.

3 Generations of Family Ownership at Total Trailers

In 2024, we reached another major milestone with the opening of our Nashville location, solidifying our presence in three key regions. Today, Total Trailers is a third-generation, family-owned business, led by Steve’s sons, Jason and Jonathan, who have grown the company into a trusted name in the trailer industry. With three locations, 80 dedicated employees, and 30 service bays, we have the experience and resources to serve everyone—from independent operators to large fleet owners.

Despite our growth, one thing has never changed: our commitment to our customers. We believe that every trailer we sell, repair, or service is more than just equipment—it’s part of someone’s livelihood. That’s why we continue to operate with the same core values of integrity, quality, and customer-first service that have guided us from the very beginning.

From our humble beginnings in Benton to becoming a leading name in the trailer industry, we’re proud of the journey we’ve taken—and even more excited about the road ahead. Here’s to the past, present, and future of Total Trailers!
