Construction Season’s a Win with Heavy-Duty Trucks from O.J. Watson
By Michael McClanahan / May 29, 2024

People are moving to and around Front Range cities. While the numbers haven’t reached pre-pandemic levels yet, both newcomers and locals are driving construction as they relocate for work, leisure, or simply a better lifestyle.

The area continues to be seen as a desirable place for companies to relocate, too. That means opportunities for contractors to cash in on the push for more housing along with the underlying demand for all types of construction, both residential and commercial.

Other issues like affordability and new rules and codes are also changing the construction landscape… both literally and figuratively. And both builders and governments are working to address them. We’ve written about them, too, but underlying it all is a need for construction companies, developers, and trades to keep abreast of the changes and adapt both their practices and their equipment to accommodate them.

Will you be ready when the work comes?

The Right Trucks Make for Quick Work

Pickup trucks haul crews and supplies to and from worksites and pull everything from trailers to tree stumps. With added extras like saddle bags, plows, and winches, pickup trucks can even do some jobs that formerly required heavy-duty rigs.

Platform trucks tackle work at the next level. They can be outfitted with dozens of options for everything from stake and dump bodies to cranes and bucket lifts to mobile shops to keep electrical and plumbing jobs on schedule.

Purpose-built trucks like sweepers, vacuum trucks, and hydro-jetting rigs make quick work of the biggest jobs while keeping things clean, safe, and efficient.
