Wastequip opens new WRX facility in Southern California

Wastequip, a Charlotte, North Carolina-based manufacturer of waste handling equipment, has opened its newest WRX, pronounced “works,” facility in Jurupa Valley, California. The facility is part of the company’s strategy to expand its parts and service footprint nationwide. 

The Jurupa Valley WRX location offers customers access to localized parts inventory for quick availability and pickup. Later this year, the facility will begin offering service for refuse trucks, hoists, tarping systems and related scrap equipment. 

“We are excited about our newest WRX facility, which marks our parts and service expansion into southern California,” says Eric Mattson, president of the trucks division. “This location allows us to provide localized parts inventory and eventually equipment service to haulers and municipalities in the southern California area. As part of the Wastequip family, customers know they can rely on the technical expertise, service capabilities and parts inventory at any WRX location to keep their operations running smoothly.”

The WRX concept was launched in 2020 as part of Wastequip’s vision to localize waste equipment service, providing customers with access to fleet maintenance and parts inventory and strengthening Wastequip’s dealer network. WRX facilities have introduced compactor service solutions, leveraging Wastequip’s network of service partners. Customers can schedule a variety of compactor services, from general wear and tear and safety inspections to grease service and replacement of hydraulic oil, filters or hoses through the WRX website. 

The new facility is open at 11300 Inland Ave., Jurupa Valley, California, and offers parts inventory for refuse trucks, hoists and other scrap handling equipment. The location will offer equipment service later this year, joining existing WRX locations in Atlanta, Phoenix, Dallas, and Pompano Beach, Florida. 

Additional Wastequip WRX locations will be announced later this year.
