Report
Gordon Trailers went above and beyond dealership customer service standards when assisting me with a warranty claim on my John Deere tractor - which wasn't even purchased from their store. Gordon Trailers put the customer first when liaising with the North American and Northwestern Ontario JD representatives and remained true to their word until the claim had been settled. In addition, my tractor was repaired quickly as possible with OEM parts by their service department - a very arduous task during these difficult times. Thank you!

Over the past year I've required numerous replacement John Deere parts for a used project 835M Gator that I acquired sight unseen from a Ritchie Brothers Alberta auction, as well as general maintenance parts for a pair of vintage John Deere 755 & 855 Compact Utility Tractors. After doing some research, I learned that Gordon Trailer is the authorized parts supplier for John Deere Lawn & Garden equipment in Thunder Bay, so I reached out to them to assist me. From my first contact and right through the entire parts identification and ordering process, Sara and her team at Gordon Trailer consistently

Called in to buy a trailer for my company, told "sorry we don't have any". I ask if I can get a price so I can order one..."no, we wont be getting until the spring". I guess no one needs money anymore? lol

Pleasant and helpful. Unit I got was not clean tho. Not major dirty but it took me over 1/2 hour to clean and sweep. I like renting from them though as they always try their hardest to please .

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with Gordon Trailer Rentals. The only positive thing I have to say is that the trailer was in good condition (minus the listed mechanical issues) and very clean. In summary, our heat didn't work and the battery wouldn't hold a charge so we had to run a generator the entire time. This completely ruined our vacation and we will not be renting from them again. Please read the details below. First of all, we arranged to pick up the trailer in the morning because we had three hours to travel with it on top of the 12 hours we had just traveled from Sudbury
