WORK TRUCKS FOR MATAWAN
Matawan is a small, historic borough in northern Monmouth County, built around Main Street and Lake Lefferts, with the Aberdeen-Matawan train station just over the line and Route 34 and Route 79 meeting nearby. Its older homes and downtown shops support contractors, landscapers, home service trades and delivery businesses, many of which also cover Aberdeen, Keyport and Old Bridge.
About 10.8 miles from our Shrewsbury lot (~16 min drive)
Schwartz Truck Center is about 25 minutes south at 585 Shrewsbury Ave in Shrewsbury. With the Parkway close at hand, Matawan owners can get down to see trucks and get service in the same place.
WHO RUNS TRUCKS IN MATAWAN
Renovating older homes and keeping up lake-front and downtown properties keeps plumbers, electricians, carpenters, painters and landscapers busy. Restaurants and shops on Main Street need deliveries, and businesses that serve commuters and the surrounding suburbs run vans and box trucks daily.
Matawan's location near the Middlesex line also makes it a practical base for businesses that cover both counties. A truck based here may spend the morning in Sayreville or Old Bridge and the afternoon in Holmdel or Hazlet, so comfort on the Parkway and Route 34 matters as much as maneuverability on Main Street.
- Cutaways and service bodies for mechanical trades
- Small box trucks for downtown and residential deliveries
- Landscape dumps and stake bodies
GETTING TO SHREWSBURY FROM MATAWAN
Get on the Garden State Parkway near Route 34 and head south to Exit 109, then take Newman Springs Road to Shrewsbury Avenue. Route 34 south toward Holmdel and Newman Springs Road east is a toll-free alternative. Allow roughly 25 minutes.
FINDING THE RIGHT TRUCK AND KEEPING IT ON THE ROAD
Matawan businesses often need a truck that can work tight downtown streets in the morning and residential driveways in the afternoon. A light or medium-duty cabover covers both, and the Shrewsbury lot usually has a mix of new Hino and Fuso trucks and used box trucks, dumps and service bodies to compare.
Once you own it, the service department works on most light and medium-duty commercial makes, and the parts counter supports crews that handle their own oil changes and brake work. Financing and trade-ins are both available.
