Trailer Wizards Joins TIP Group
TIP Trailer Services, a portfolio company of I Squared Capital and one of the leading trailer leasing, rental, maintenance and repair providers across Europe and Canada, today announces it has completed the acquisition of Trailer Wizards, a leading supplier of trailer rental and leasing services in Canada.

We intend to invest to develop our longstanding customer relationships with world-class transport, logistics, and retail customers in Canada.”
TIP’s Canadian division will have a combined fleet of over 33,000 trailers, reefers, chassis and flatbed or drop-deck configurations. The combined business will employ over 500 people, including approximately 300 mechanics, throughout almost 30 locations in Canada from Prince Edward Island to British Columbia.
The management of the combined business is working together on an integration plan to allow a smooth transition. Unless communicated otherwise, existing contracts, services, terms and conditions and processes will remain in place at each of the businesses.
