Thirty years after opening its doors in the 1930s , M . H . Eby , Inc . began transitioning from wood and steel trailers and truck bodies to aluminum . Consumers in the 1970s were looking for a lightweight yet durable product . Menno H . Eby , Jr . decided it was time to give the people what they wanted .
“ Mr . Eby saw an opportunity to start moving forward with a new product . He started with the smaller , aluminum livestock trailers and livestock truck bodies and as things progressed , got into larger trailers and semis ,” shared Erin Varley , Vice President , Dealer Sales and Development at M . H . Eby , Inc .
In addition to making the shift to aluminum , M . H . Eby has not shied away from adjusting its product offerings when faced with customer requests and needs . The company is well known for its durable and dependable livestock trailers and truck bodies , but the brand has much more to offer .
