Felling Trailers Inc. is conducting its seventh annual online auction of an FT-3 drop deck utility trailer to benefit a nonprofit organization of its choosing. Felling Trailers wants to generate awareness about childhood cancer, along with the research funding and resources that Children's Cancer Research Fund (CCRF) has to offer those individuals and families it affects.

Thus, Felling Trailers manufactured and painted one of its most popular trailers in CCRF's signature grey color that displays the CCRF emblem to be auctioned online for eight days at the end of September. Several of Felling Trailers' suppliers have joined to support CCRF through sponsorship of the trailer build, from lighting to tires to paint. The 2019 Trailer for a Cause sponsors are Trans-Texas, PPG Industries, Dexter, Sealco, Peterson, Industrial Wood and Demco. One hundred percent of the winning bid will benefit the Children's Cancer Research Fund.

Felling Trailers will kick off the auction on Sept. 28 at CCRF's Time to Fly 5K walk that takes place in St. Paul, Minn., at Como Regional Park. The CCRF FT-3 utility trailer will be on display at the day-long event along with auction information.

The auction will run for eight days and will be "live" from Sept. 28 at 12:00 PM CST until Oct. 5 at 12:00 PM CST. Arrangements can be made for pick up at Felling Trailers' manufacturing facility or delivery (freight extra).
