Terex Upgrades With Relocated Service Center in Washington
The Terex Service Center in Seattle has relocated about 15 miles southeast of Seattle in Kent, Wash. The new location upgrades service and inspection capabilities and supports a broader market of equipment owners.
“We are excited about this new site as it is centrally located and provides easy access from both Seattle and Tacoma,” said Jerry Kienast, regional operations manager. “These two markets are among the top five cities in Washington state.”
“The new facility is part of a broader strategic plan to invest in expanding service solutions for our customers,” said Nick Cammisa, director, service sales. “Moving to upgraded facilities enables us to fully leverage engineering, new product development and life cycle solutions to help equipment owners maximize fleet uptime – whether that fleet includes Terex electric utility aerials, digger derricks and auger drills, or Terex boom truck cranes, or Genie telehandlers, scissor and boomlifts.”
The Kent location includes a 2,000-square-foot wash bay, concrete tilt up construction, and 26-foot ceiling height.
The relocation to Kent, Wash., follows the opening of a new Terex Service Center in Lancaster, Pa. Additional new or updated facilities are planned for other markets through 2022. Terex employs qualified factory-trained technicians who receive ongoing training to ensure they are staying current on new technologies and ever-changing equipment.
