After one full year, work is in full swing at Trico Lift’s 28,000 square foot fleet maintenance and rebuild center in New Jersey.

Trico Lift recently marked its one-year anniversary as a rental company exclusively dedicated to the aerial work platform market, CEO and President Ken Pustizzi said. Last October Trico Lift, formerly a division of Trico Equipment, became an independent aerial rental company, while Trico Equipment continued concentrating on earthmoving equipment dealership activities.

“During the past 12 months, we have achieved our initial objectives to expand into key geographic areas by opening our Houston, Texas, and Connecticut branches,” said Pustizzi. The company opened its Houston branch last month and recently launched its Hartford, Conn., location.

Trico Lift has added 700 new aerial units to its fleet, and opened a 28,000-square-foot fleet maintenance and rebuild center in New Jersey. It also launched its www.tricolift.com website. The company has now gone 22 months without a lost-time accident.

Based in Millville, N.J., Trico Lift also has branches in Beltsville, Md.; Gainesville, Va.; Marcus Hook, Pa.; Cincinnati; and South Plainfield, N.J.

Trico Lift is No. 53 on the RER 100.
