Aurora’s expansive product breadth includes parts from over 450 suppliers covering all brands of trailers. Aurora’s eCommerce platform, Aurora Parts to Go (www.AuroraPartsToGo.com), provides an “on the go” solution for equipment owners, small repair shops, and mobile service technicians by connecting them to Aurora dealers and providing an e-catalog of more than 20,000 trailer, chassis, and container parts.
