Morbark this week announced the territory expansion of Newtown Power Equipment, which recently expanded its territory to include the entire state of Connecticut. The expansion, effective in August, added the remainder of the state to an already well-established territory in southwestern Connecticut.

“We are very impressed with the exceptional service and support that Newtown Power Equipment offers,” said Justin Longtin, Morbark Tree Care Products support representative. “They have advanced experience and expertise with Morbark products and will be a great asset to customers in Connecticut.”

Dave Oliger, co-owner and president of Newtown Power Equipment added, “We look forward to meeting and working with new customers in the tree care industry, as well as continuing to serve the customers we’ve done business with in the past.”

Founded in 1981 in Newtown, Conn., Newtown Power Equipment has grown from a specialty shop to one of the largest multi-line dealers in the area. In addition to Morbark chippers and stump grinders, Newtown Power Equipment carries a complete line of lawn & garden equipment, as well as tree climbing and cabling supplies.

Morbark, based in Winn, Mich., manufactures equipment for the forestry, recycling, tree care, and sawmill markets, including Chiparvestors, flails, whole-tree chippers, brush chippers, grinders and more.
