Most prominent utility equipment dealer in America strives to help clients save money

Bryan, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/09/2014 -- Industry statistics reveal Class 5 truck sales have shown a steady increase over the last 4 years, bringing last year's total to approximately 150,000. This uptick spans the full range of top heavy duty equipment manufacturers with Ford, Chrysler, Isuzu and International dominating this sector of the market. In light of the heightened demand for these trucks, a representative of Utility Fleet Sales has launched a series of monthly manager's specials on specific trucks in their lineup.

The representative confirmed, "Having become one of the most highly trusted equipment solution providers in the country, we offer a wide range of new, used and certified pre-owned utility trucks to meet the needs of our customers. At this time, we are proud to announce the manager's special for this month is $5,000 cash back on select digger derricks, bucket trucks and other items in our inventory."

In addition to the previously mentioned manufacturers, Utility Fleet Sales also carries ETI, Prinoth, Manitex, Terex and Altec, among many others. Aside from their scope of purchasing and rental plans, the company also offers a number of other services. Their maintenance department provides upkeep and repairs on the trucks and machinery they supply with a staff of ASE and Hydraulic Fluid Power certified mechanics at their clients' disposal. These technicians operate from 55 bays at the company's 3 Texas facilities.

Transport of their equipment is provided anywhere in the country to ensure their customers have the equipment they need regardless of where their job may be. Due to the stringent but varying legalities in each state regarding logistics, Utility Fleet Sales guarantees all drivers are in complete compliance to ensure clients' jobs are not delayed by being forced to wait for their equipment to arrive. This service is provided for free as a courtesy to their clients.

Concluded the spokesperson, "With our financing plans, the $5,000 cash back offer helps customers save even more than through our already low pricing. Our rental options allow customers the benefit of not having to purchase equipment they may only need occasionally. We realize the economy has yet to fully recover from the recession of a few years ago, but this does not mean companies in a number of sectors need reliable equipment any less than before, so our goal is to make our inventory as affordable as possible for them."

Revamped filter system provides fine-grained, user-friendly access to its offerings

Bryan, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/27/2014 -- Equipment supplier Utility Fleet Sales announced the revamping of its web-based inventory browsing system. The company, one of the national leaders in the sales of new and used bucket trucks and other equipment, has recently completed a project designed to allow its prospective and existing customers to better sort through its extensive offerings on their own. The newly released tools, accessible at the company's home page, allow visitors to browse its extensive inventory through the application of a wide variety of powerful filters.

"We're at the top of our game here at Utility Fleet Sales," company founder and president George McMahon said, "but that just inspires us to work even harder to deliver an ever-improving experience to our customers." Founded in 2004 after McMahon took out a $10,000 personal loan, Utility Fleet Sales was an early pioneer in refurbishing and reselling off-lease bucket trucks and similar utility equipment. McMahon's purchase and sale of a single truck with that initial seed money set the company on a path of success that has continued uninterrupted since, and today it is among the largest of its type in the country, with tens of millions of dollars in sales every year.

Before the turn of the millennium, it was usual for utility companies and others who relied on bucket trucks and related equipment to keep them in service for up to fifteen years, after which they were typically no longer fit for duty. Thereafter, shorter lease terms offered by a few manufacturers begat something of a revolution in the industry and created a new supply of off-lease equipment, as well. Today, utilities and other companies have many more options when it comes to creating and maintaining their fleets of bucket trucks and other pieces of equipment, and Utility Fleet Sales is one of the leading sources for a wide variety of new, refurbished, and used vehicles.

"Despite still being independently owned, we maintain one of the largest inventories of bucket trucks and other equipment anywhere," McMahon continued, "and our newly improved search tools make it easier than ever to find the perfect vehicle." The user-friendly search facility allows customers to easily narrow the company's inventory to vehicles which suit their particular needs. Making use of simple, graphical controls, for example, a customer who needs a refurbished bucket truck with a working height between 45 and 60 feet and an automatic transmission can easily see what is available. Visitors can also make use of free-form search fields and may easily contact the company's sales force if further assistance is needed. This industry-leading tool is a result of the company's continuing drive to stay at the forefront of all aspects of its business.

About Utility Fleet Sales
Founded in 2004 with an initial inventory of a single truck, Utility Fleet Sales quickly grew into one of the nation's largest suppliers of new and refurbished bucket trucks, a position it continues to hold while maintaining an A rating with the BBB. Today, it is the sole supplier of ETI factory-certified refurbished trucks, an official Terex rental partner and the only dealer in the industry with its own equipment transportation fleet.

Bryan, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/08/2014 -- Utility Fleet Sales proudly announces they will be providing the Mesa Hotline School with two Terex vehicles. One is the Hi-Ranger SCM55 Bucket Truck and the other will be a Commander 4047 Digger Derrick. Utility Fleet Sales recognizes the school is a great cause and therefore is glad to contribute.

"Utility Fleet Sales loves to help those in the community and this is just one way to do so. The school trains both non-profit and privately-owned utility companies and the trucks ensure those being trained have the latest in equipment. Without the proper training and equipment, the companies cannot serve consumers quickly and efficiently so the trucks are of great importance to ensure the smooth operation of various utilities," the sales department at Utility Fleet Sales explains.

The Commander 4047 Digger Derrick offers a sheave height of 47 feet and a lift capacity of 23,350 pounds. A turret winch mount and rear boom mount are additional features on this model and one finds this machine has a variety of options. A riding seat, continuous rotation, block heater, and air conditioning are just a few of the options found on these machines.

"The Digger Derrick functions to dig holes before lifting and setting utility poles. In addition, the machine may be used to lift various other materials, and one can choose from a variety of sheave heights and winch capacities with these machines. Terex first built the hydraulic digger derrick and continues to work to improve the efficiency of the machines," the sales department continues.

The Hi-Ranger SCM55 Bucket Truck benefits companies also as it offers a working height of 60 feet and a side reach of 46.1 feet. The lower boom cylinder design assists those in need of a machine with a low travel height and Terex included the patented Tri-Link elbow design to make maintaining the equipment easier.

"The Terex Hi-Ranger Aerial Devices remain an industry favorite, due in large part to their long history, one of innovative design and quality products. When the time comes to obtain one or more overcenter aerial devices, turn to Terex for help. Utility Fleet Sales recognizes the quality of these bucket trucks for sale and all products offered through the company and works to provide clients with what they want and need at all times.
