Service Trucks International (STI) is growing its footprint on the East Coast through a new dealer partnership with East Coast Truck and Trailer Sales (ECTTS).
The collaboration means fleet and construction professionals in Portsmouth and Manassas, Virginia, now have easier access to STI’s full lineup of service truck bodies and Tiger Cranes, plus local support and service.
“This partnership strengthens our ability to deliver high-performance service truck solutions to the industries we serve,” said Rick Forehand, General Manager for ECTTS. “STI’s reputation for rugged, reliable, and purpose-built equipment aligns perfectly with our commitment to quality and customer success.”
The partnership follows on-site product training conducted by Jesse Hoffner, Eastern Regional Sales Manager at STI, earlier this summer.
“We’re so excited for the addition of STI service trucks and Tiger Cranes to the product offering of East Coast Truck and Trailer,” added Tim Henrich, National Sales Manager at STI. “Our products are strategically aligned with their expansion into the construction and services market.”
Since 1987, Service Trucks International has specialized in mechanics bodies, crane bodies, and mobile service equipment, while its Tiger Cranes division has delivered reliable telescoping cranes since 1990.
