Union County, New Jersey
HINO & FUSO DEALER SERVING CRANFORD, NJ
Cranford is a classic Union County commuter town, with the Rahway River winding through a walkable downtown, a Raritan Valley Line station and tree-lined streets of older homes. Those older houses need constant work, and the contractors, painters, landscapers and plumbers who take care of them run a lot of vans and light trucks.
About 26.3 miles from our Shrewsbury lot (~39 min drive)
Schwartz Truck Center in Shrewsbury is a longer drive than most dealers in the area, but it offers something specific: it is a factory-authorized Hino and Mitsubishi Fuso dealer at 585 Shrewsbury Ave with new and used inventory, service, parts and financing together. Cranford is close to the Parkway, so the trip is simple.

Service works on most makes of light and medium-duty commercial trucks, and Hino and Fuso parts are at the counter on site.
OLDER HOMES, STEADY RESTORATION
Cranford's older housing stock, much of it from the early twentieth century, keeps a steady stream of restoration work going. Plaster and paint, roofing, porch repair, gutter replacement and landscaping all need trucks that can carry ladders, lumber and equipment without scratching a customer's driveway or blocking a narrow street.
Service-body trucks with ladder racks, cutaway vans and short box trucks are the typical picks. Downtown restaurants and shops along North Avenue generate early-morning deliveries, and a smaller truck is easier to maneuver and park than a large one.
Cranford's Rahway River neighborhoods are also prone to storm-related repairs, which can make demand for roofers, carpenters and cleanup crews spike without much warning. A truck that is ready to work on short notice is worth having.
