The Spring Sweeps Are Coming
By Michael McClanahan / March 19, 2024

They’re not exactly sweepstakes, but the stakes can be high for companies and agencies tasked with keeping roads and properties safe and clear of debris.

Springtime storms are notorious for both damage and general nuisances. It’s a rare spring when we skate through without at least one branch-breaking snowstorm. No sooner do trees start to bloom, adding lots of surface area in the process, than a heavy, wet snowfall comes along and wreaks havoc on the leaves and the branches that carry them. And when the snow melts, as it does quickly in the spring, tons of damage and debris is left behind, threatening property and power lines and clogging street drains, causing water hazards where golf course designers never intended them.

That’s where sweepers and scrapers from the O.J. Watson Equipment Company come to the rescue.

Industry-Best Sweepers Are Ready to Roll

O.J. Watson is proud to represent the top brands in commercial sweeping trucks along with the expertise to match you with the ideal truck for your needs.

No job is too big or too small for Schwarze sweepers. They tackle airport runways, roadways, and surface lots, large and small. They’re equipped with the best in safety features to keep both operators and the pedestrian and vehicle-driving public safe and alert to driver actions.

Special features like the Schwarze Sweeps-In-Reverse℠, WhisperWheel℠ Fan system, leaf bleeder, and in-cab hydraulic gutter broom tilt add unparalleled versatility and efficiency to these time-tested workhorses. And extra-value designs like hydraulic test ports and slide-out screens provide quick work of maintenance needs so your sweepers spend more time making you money and less time in the shop.
