H&E Equipment Services Moves to Larger San Antonio Facility
H&E Equipment Services this week relocated its San Antonio branch to a newly constructed facility. The new 26,535-square-foot branch sits on 6.5 acres with office space, a parts warehouse, a large yard area and a 12-bay repair shop that includes two five-ton overhead cranes. The facility is capable of repairing a variety of machines from compact construction equipment to large earthmoving machinery.
The San Antonio branches specializes in aerial work platforms, telescopic forklifts, and large and compact construction machines from a variety of manufacturers including Atlas Copco, Gehl, Genie, JLG, Lincoln, Magnum, Miller, Multiquip, Okada, Skytrak, Skyjack, Takeuchi, Wacker, Yanmar and others.
“The enhanced capabilities of this new, much larger, facility will help us deliver even better service to our valuable customers,” said Ed Allan, San Antonio branch manager. “Just the sheer increased size of the building, shop and yard alone will provide tremendous improvements in safety and operational efficiencies. The shop, with its new tooling and large overhead cranes, will improve turnaround times on repairs and make us more cost-competitive. The larger yard will allow us to expand and diversify our fleet of aerial lifts, forklifts and general construction products, along with growing our earthmoving line. All of this is great news not only for our employees, but our customers as well. More importantly, we will still continue to do what we have always done – work hard every day to earn our customers’ confidence by providing what they need when they need it.”
In addition to rentals, the San Antonio branch provides new and used equipment sales, in-shop and mobile services, a comprehensive parts inventory, training and other value-added services.
With 72 locations, H&E Equipment Services, based in Baton Rouge, La., is No. 7 on the RER 100.
