How many trucks does your company have??

[gant]

Well I'm new here and was wondering how many trucks everyones company has?? the company I work for has about 450 trucks between our 25 union plants and our 8 non union plants

[BillyCement]

We have about 26 trucks. We're a small non-union outfit. We recently merged with another company that has about 25 trucks.

[concretejoe]

I think we have about 34 trucks. We just bought some new ones.

[wheelman]

the plant i work for has 14 trucks (two '01 Sterlings and the rest '03 Sterlings.) the main plant that owns us has about 30 i think. two '01, four '99, and three '97 Sterlings, and the rest '95 Fords.

[Matt]

My company has around 100 trucks, and 8 plants. They are all front discharge. Mainly Advance with some Oshkosh.

[cleave70]

We have about 60 trucks at 4 plants.

[cleave70]

Do ya have any openings for a batchman with 10 years experience?

[Matt]

Not much hiring (if any) going on in the concrete industry of Michigan at the moment Cleave.

[slumpy]

our company has over 500 trucks most of the trucks are for sale there from other plants that we bought out

[bj3976]

I work for a small non-union company that is family owned with 2 plants, in 2 states (13 miles apart)

18 drivers (9 at each plant)

33 mixers total:

25 ('95-'06) Oshkosh fronts
2 ('80) Autocar rears
2 ('90,'92) Peterbuilt rears
4 ('78-'79) International Paystar rears

At this point we only run front discharge mixers because our customers cry when they get a rear on the job site.

1 bulk tankers (every day use)
2 bulk tankers (spares)

[Mort]

In our region, we run two plants, 24 trucks at one of them and about 45 or so at the main one. Four of them are OshKosh, the rest are Kenworths, old Autocars (soon to be retired, hopefully), and a couple old Petes. We were supposed to be getting a bunch of newer ones when Cemex bought us out, but now that we've been sold again, who knows?

[slumpy]

we have 30 plants and all of are trucks are advance

[cfconcrete]

We have 9 plants with about 125 trucks in about 10 different colors from all the plants they merged with, And from all of those mergers, we also got 6 blacktop plants, 4 quarries, another 100 triaxles, an excavation & roadbuilding division, dump trailers, bulk tankers and a few hundred pissed off, whining, crybaby guys ..... AND we're proud members of teamsters local 294...

MICHIGAN TEAMSTERS LOCAL 7

[ozleroy]

The company i work for has 28 trucks (Macks ,sterlings, Benz) , 5 of those being what we call minis(2.6 MTS) and all these trucks are shared between 4 plants the main being in ballarat , victoria ,about an hours drive from melbourne.
Some of our deliveries are in to the country areas and this is a nice change from the rat race of the city plant.
Several months ago we had a major for this area anyway job which was the construction of 130 wind turbine bases in which every base took 300 cubic metres. Our company put a portable plant near the site and this was a good job out of the rat race also as this was 30 kms out of town.
In ballarat here we have a goldmine which we were supplying at all hours of the day and night but our company has put in a plant several months ago on site at the gold mine and several of our drivers are working just at the gold mine round the clock delivering shotcrete to the underground mine.

[vaupell]

just a estimate here (denmark only - not sure about the other plants in naighbor contries.)

- Mixers trucks 7.5m3 (9,75yrd) where only 5 dont have conveyer - 290-310 trucks
- Mixer tailers + tracktors(trucks) 11m3 (14,3yrds) - around 20 "freelancers"
- Mixer trailers with conveyer 10m3 (13yrds) - 15-20
- 10 large pumps - 5 small pumps
- 3 pumi mixers (regular mixer with pump fittet instead of conveyer.)

Then we have the "hired" help, off plant trucks either with mixer container
or simply outside hired concrete mixers on daily basis.

so at max capasity in denmark only around 340-360units on around 50 plants.

[dolese203653]

Our company hasover 400 trucks between approx 50 plants with 6 plants in Baton Rouge, 3 in Wichita and the rest throughout Oklahoma. Our plant itself which is in downtown Oklahoma City has 25 trucks, all Sterling all Cat engined,none being over 5 years old.
