RMS Purchases Five New Service Trucks

Road Machinery & Supplies Co. is committed to providing industry leading service to its customers. In order to do that consistently and effectively, RMS has been making investments in its service departments with the addition of service techs across the company, improving training, and adding new state-of-the-art facilities, most recently in Des Moines and Cedar Rapids. This latest step in this initiative was to upgrade trucks for service technicians as RMS added five new trucks in June with four more to come in 2021.

“These new trucks are going to be a huge benefit to our service capabilities,” said General Service Manager Matt Tapper. “By upgrading these trucks, those service techs are a going to be better-suited to handle whatever they come across at a customer’s jobsite.”

The trucks feature Peterbilt chassis on Stellar aluminum bodies. They also boast 12,000-pound cranes, Miller diesel welders, oil recovery systems, and LED strobes and lighting.

“When a customer has a machine that goes down or needs service, our techs have to do that work on-site,” explained Tapper. “We can’t bring everything back to the shop, so these trucks are the next best thing.”
