H&E Equipment Services Opens Branch in Indio, Calif., its 12th in California
Effective September 27, 2022, H&E Equipment Services Inc. announces the opening of its new Indio, Calif., branch, its 12th location in California.
The branch includes a fully fenced yard area, offices, and a separate repair shop and can offer a variety of construction and general industrial equipment for customers working throughout the low desert areas of Coachella and Imperial valleys in Southern California.
“From Palm Springs down to the Salton Sea and the surrounding areas, H&E has serviced the region from nearby branches for several years,” said Indio branch manager Jacob Murrieta, who has been with H&E for nearly 20 years. “With such demand for quality equipment, we've taken the next natural step and established a location right in the heart of the Coachella Valley, which hosts a mixture of everything: agriculture, green energy like solar and wind, geothermal energy, entertainment, leisure, and, of course, general construction. The growth in the last decade has been incredible. The new branch opens its doors at the same time as the much-anticipated home of the Firebird hockey team and will be ready for events such as Stagecoach and Coachella Fest 2023. Our team represents decades of experience from members who call the Coachella Valley home, and we can’t wait to grow with this beautiful place.”
The Indio branch specializes in the rental of aerial lifts, telescopic forklifts, earthmoving machinery, compaction equipment, generators, compressors, and more, and represents the following manufacturers: Allmand, Atlas Copco, Bomag, Case, Club Car, Cushman, Doosan, Gehl, Generac Mobile, Genie, Hilti, Husqvarna, JCB, JLG, John Deere, Kubota, LayMor, Ledwell, Lincoln Electric, Link-Belt Excavators, MEC, Miller, Multiquip, Polaris, Skyjack, SkyTrak, Sullair, Sullivan-Palatek, TAG, Taylor, Towmaster Trailers, Wacker Neuson, Yanmar, and others.
Founded in 1961, H&E Equipment Services is one of the largest equipment rental companies in the nation, offering equipment rentals, sales, parts, and service. Branches are located throughout the Pacific Northwest, West Coast, Intermountain, Southwest, Gulf Coast, Southeast, Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions.
