Our 8-Step Yard Truck Refurbishment Process
We assist with towing your yard truck directly to our shop for a smooth start to the refurbishment process.
We perform a detailed, bumper-to-bumper inspection. We then provide a detailed quote, with safety-critical components prioritized and driver comfort upgrades included as needed.
Before painting, we handle key structural fixes:
- Replace boom and cab bushings (if required)
- Rebuild or replace the 5th wheel for reliability and safety
The truck undergoes sandblasting to remove corrosion and old paint, followed by a professional paint job to restore its exterior.
We flip the cab for full access to critical systems. The radiator, engine, and transmission are also removed.
We address critical components:
- Radiator: Cleaned and re-cored if necessary
- Transmission: Sent to specialists for a full rebuild
- Engine: Replaced with a brand-new Cummins engine
All worn components are replaced to ensure optimal performance and long-term reliability.
You receive a fully refurbished yard truck that looks and performs like new — at a fraction of the replacement cost.

Signs Your Yard Truck May Be Ready for Refurbishment
Not every aging terminal tractor needs to be replaced. Many units can continue delivering dependable service when properly rebuilt and restored.
Cosmetic Deterioration
Faded paint, rust, corrosion, and body damage can affect your company’s image and accelerate long-term equipment wear.
Frequent Repairs
When maintenance costs begin increasing, refurbishment can address multiple issues at once and restore fleet reliability.
Hydraulic Performance Issues
Slow lifting, inconsistent operation, or hydraulic leaks may indicate major components are ready for rebuilding.
Electrical Problems
Aging wiring, sensors, and electrical systems can create downtime and operational inefficiencies.
Cab Wear & Operator Concerns
Worn interiors, damaged controls, and poor visibility can impact operator comfort and productivity.
Aging Fleet Equipment
Many older trucks still have strong structural foundations and can benefit from a comprehensive yard truck reconditioning program.
Why Yard Truck Refurbishment Makes Financial Sense
For many operations, replacing yard trucks can place significant strain on capital budgets. Refurbishment offers an alternative that delivers measurable value.
- Lower Investment: Refurbishment costs substantially less than purchasing new equipment.
- Extended Equipment Life: Add years of productive service to existing assets.
- Reduced Downtime: Address multiple issues during a single project.
- Improved Reliability: Restore critical systems before failures occur.
- Better ROI: Maximize the value of your current fleet.
