BOX TRUCKS AND WORK TRUCKS FOR HAZLET
Hazlet is a Bayshore township where Route 35 and Route 36 meet, with a busy retail strip, the Parkway running through its western edge, and established neighborhoods full of homes that need regular upkeep. Retailers and their suppliers, contractors, landscapers, and service companies covering the Bayshore keep plenty of work trucks on the road there.
About 8.9 miles from our Shrewsbury lot (~14 min drive)
Schwartz Truck Center is about 20 minutes south at 585 Shrewsbury Ave in Shrewsbury. Hazlet operators can take the Parkway or Route 35 straight down, compare trucks on the lot and get service in the same building.
WHO BUYS WORK TRUCKS IN HAZLET
Hazlet's location makes it a good base for businesses covering the whole Bayshore, from Keyport to Highlands. Those businesses need trucks that handle a lot of short trips and frequent stops.
- Box trucks for retail, appliance and furniture delivery
- Cutaways and service bodies for plumbing, HVAC and electrical
- Landscape dumps and stake bodies
GETTING TO SHREWSBURY FROM HAZLET
The Garden State Parkway south from Exit 117 to Exit 109 is the quickest route. Route 35 south through Middletown and Red Bank is a toll-free alternative that brings you right to Shrewsbury. Plan on about 20 minutes on the Parkway, more on Route 35 at busy times.
SERVICE AND PARTS FOR HAZLET OPERATORS
Shrewsbury's service department works on most light and medium-duty commercial makes, so Hazlet businesses with mixed fleets can use one shop. The parts counter can order filters, brakes and body parts for in-house maintenance.
Many Bayshore trucks were affected by flooding in past storms, so when shopping used it's worth asking about a truck's history. The sales team can tell you what they know about anything on the lot.
TRUCKS THAT FIT BAYSHORE WORK
Most Bayshore routes involve a lot of short trips between stops, so a truck that's comfortable in traffic and easy to park on a residential street is worth more than raw capacity. A 14- to 18-foot box on a cabover chassis covers most delivery work, and a compact landscape dump suits the lawn and garden crews that keep Hazlet's neighborhoods looking good.
For contractors hauling materials up and down Route 35, a stake body or flatbed is often more versatile than a box.
