WORK TRUCKS FOR MOUNTAINSIDE, NJ
Mountainside is a small, leafy borough along the Watchung Mountains, bordered by the Watchung Reservation and bisected by the Route 22 commercial strip. It is residential on the hillsides and busy with retail, dealerships and offices on the highway.

The people who build, landscape and maintain those properties are Schwartz Truck Center's kind of customer. The dealership at 585 Shrewsbury Ave in Shrewsbury is a factory-authorized Hino and Mitsubishi Fuso dealer with new trucks, used box trucks, dumps, flatbeds and service bodies, plus service, parts and financing, about an hour south on the Parkway.

ROUTE 22 RETAIL AND HILLSIDE HOMES
Mountainside's Route 22 corridor is a major retail and service zone, while the hillside neighborhoods behind it are quiet and heavily landscaped. That split drives two types of truck demand: box trucks and vans for retail and delivery on the highway, and dumps, flatbeds and service bodies for the trades that keep the residential side in shape.
Tree and landscape contractors working on steep lots tend to want a short-wheelbase truck with good braking for hill driving. Those details are worth discussing with the sales team before choosing a truck.
If you drive on hills daily, ask about engine and exhaust braking options and how the truck handles a full load on a grade. They are worth testing on the road, not just reading on a spec sheet.
