For a one-truck or three-truck operation, the choice of vehicle matters a great deal. Schwartz Truck Center, at 585 Shrewsbury Ave in Shrewsbury, is a factory-authorized Hino and Mitsubishi Fuso dealer with new and used trucks, a service department and a parts counter. It is a Parkway ride north from Beachwood, and well suited to a buyer who wants to compare options in person.
WHO BUYS WORK TRUCKS IN BEACHWOOD
Home repair and improvement companies are the backbone of the local market: roofers, siders, painters, floor installers, landscapers and small excavators. Plumbers and electricians based in Beachwood commonly serve customers across the Toms River and Berkeley areas, so reliable service-body trucks and cutaway vans are staples.
Owner-operators who handle local pickup and delivery work often look at a 16- or 20-foot box truck as a step up from a van.
- Used landscape dumps and flatbeds for small contracting outfits
- Cutaway and service-body trucks for trades
- Box trucks for local delivery and moving work
GETTING TO SHREWSBURY FROM BEACHWOOD
From Beachwood, take Route 9 or Atlantic City Boulevard toward Toms River, then join the Garden State Parkway north and stay on it to Exit 109. From there, it is a short drive to 585 Shrewsbury Ave. Allow 45 to 60 minutes, more on summer weekends.
SERVICE AND PARTS FOR BEACHWOOD OPERATORS
Smaller operators generally cannot afford a truck sitting idle. The service department works on most makes of light and medium-duty commercial trucks, and the parts counter is available for Hino and Fuso needs. Ask about pre-purchase inspections if you are shopping used.
MOVING UP FROM A VAN
Many Beachwood operators start with a pickup or cargo van and reach a point where the vehicle limits the work. Roofers want a flatbed or dump body, movers want a box truck with a ramp, and painters want a service body with racks and bins. Moving to a purpose-built truck can mean carrying more material per trip, keeping tools secure and looking more established when pulling up to a customer's house.
A used box truck or service body is a common first step. The sales team can show what is currently on the lot and explain how financing might work for a small business.
