WHO BUYS WORK TRUCKS IN SURF CITY
Seasonal rentals produce steady maintenance and renovation work, so building trades, cleaners, pool services and landscapers are active year-round. Surf City's shops and eateries use box trucks and vans for deliveries, and contractors typically want a truck that can be loaded on the mainland and used the whole day.
- Service bodies and cutaway vans for building and mechanical trades

GETTING TO SHREWSBURY FROM SURF CITY

SERVICE AND PARTS FOR SURF CITY OPERATORS
Service covers most makes of light and medium-duty commercial trucks, with Hino and Fuso parts on site.
RENTAL TURNOVER AND RENOVATION WORK
Surf City's small commercial strip and dense blocks of rentals make property maintenance a year-round business. Cleaning crews, handymen, painters and plumbers handle turnovers on tight weekly schedules, and they often work from vans, cutaways and service bodies that hold supplies and tools.
Builders and landscapers use flatbeds and small dumps. A used truck with solid maintenance records can be a smart way to add capacity for the season without a long-term commitment to a bigger fleet.
Planning ahead is important on LBI. Tools, parts and supplies need to be on the truck before the causeway crossing, so shelving, bins and a lockable body can save as much time as engine power.
