Armor Equipment Strengthens Minnesota ServiceCapabilities with Acquisition of Dakota Truck

Acquisition adds truck and trailer repair expertise, building on Armor’s expansion into the Upper Midwest September 16, 2026 LAKEVILLE, Minn. — Armor Equipment, a full-service provider of environmental equipment solutions, has acquired Dakota Truck Co., LLC, a medium- and heavy-duty truck and trailer repair business based in Lakeville, Minnesota. The acquisition, effective September 1, 2026, adds complementary truck repair capabilities to Armor’s equipment sales, parts and service operations. Dakota Truck provides maintenance and repair services across vehicle makes and models, including engine service, transmission and drivetrain repairs, brakes and suspension, electrical troubleshooting, hydraulic repairs, welding and DOT inspections. These capabilities complement Armor’s work supporting the equipment needs of businesses and municipalities throughout the Midwest. “We’re pleased to welcome Dakota Truck to the Armor Equipment family,” said Tripp Manheimer, president of Armor Equipment. “Our customers need more than the right equipment. They need the service and support that keep it working. Dakota Truck’s repair expertise complements our environmental equipment business and supports our focus on helping customers reduce downtime, extend equipment life and manage their total cost of ownership. It’s another important step as we continue to grow the Environmental Products Group of MH Equipment.” Dakota Truck’s “No Excuses” operating philosophy emphasizes quality workmanship, clear communication, trained employees and honoring commitments to customers. That customer-service focus provides a foundation for bringing the businesses together. “Our customers depend on their trucks to make a living, so getting repairs done right and getting them back on the road is personal to us,” said Ray Williamson, the outgoing owner of Dakota Truck. “Finding a partner who shares that mindset—and values our customers and employees—was important to me. Armor is that kind of company. I’m proud of what our team has built, and I’m excited about the opportunity to build on that foundation with Armor’s resources and support behind us.” The acquisition follows Armor’s purchase of Environmental Equipment & Services in Elko, Minnesota, effective January 31, 2026. That transaction expanded Armor’s footprint across Minnesota, Wisconsin, North Dakota and South Dakota, adding specialized expertise in TYMCO street sweeper sales and the refurbishment and nationwide sale of used sweepers. Armor’s acquisition of Dakota Truck will complement the Minnesota/Wisconsin/North Dakota/South Dakota operations with additional service capacity, as well as expanded truck and chassis repair capabilities. Armor will move its Elko, Minnesota branch location to the Dakota Truck location in Lakeville, Minnesota effective November 1, 2026. Dakota Truck will begin operating as Armor Equipment in September. All Dakota Truck employees (including its team of 5technicians) and leadership will remain; and customers should continue using their existing service contacts.

The Sustainable Solution The Refuse Industry Has Been Overlooking – TRASH BIN CLEANERS DIRECT

Restore, Don’t Replace: How Cart Restoration Can Keep Millions of Pounds of Plastic Out of Landfill Every year, municipalities and waste haulers across North America replace thousands of residential trash carts, recycling bins, and organics containers that are deemed unserviceable. In many cases, these carts are not structurally damaged beyond repair. Instead, years of neglect, hardened residue, odors, grease buildup, and contamination have rendered them unsuitable for continued residential use. The result is a costly and environmentally damaging cycle of disposal and replacement. At a time when waste management organizations are investing heavily in sustainability initiatives, zero-waste goals, and landfill diversion programs, one of the most overlooked opportunities may already be sitting at the curb: the carts themselves. A Million Pounds of Plastic Headed for Disposal During conversations at Waste Expo, Trash Bin Cleaners Direct (TBCD) learned of a major cart replacement initiative being considered by Polk County, Florida. The county was preparing to replace approximately 29,000 residential waste carts. At an estimated replacement cost of roughly $70 per cart, the project represented more than $2 million in equipment expenses. Transportation and disposal costs would have added another estimated $105,000. But the financial impact was only part of the story. Those 29,000 carts represented approximately 580 tons—more than one million pounds—of non-biodegradable plastic destined for landfill disposal. Many of these carts had been in service for over a decade. While heavily soiled and considered unsuitable for continued use, a significant number still retained structural integrity and could potentially be restored. Extending Asset Life Through Restoration Rather than automatically replacing every cart, TBCD helped connect the county with a contractor utilizing advanced cart cleaning and restoration technology. Using specialized hot-water cleaning, sanitation, and restoration equipment, carts that would have otherwise been discarded were cleaned, restored, and returned to active residential service. The results demonstrated an important reality for the refuse industry: many carts classified as “unserviceable” may simply need restoration rather than replacement. By extending the useful life of existing carts, municipalities and haulers can dramatically reduce capital expenditures while preventing massive volumes of plastic from entering landfills. Why the Refuse Industry Should Pay Attention Waste management organizations spend significant resources encouraging residents to recycle, compost, and reduce waste. Yet the industry itself often replaces reusable assets long before they have reached the end of their functional life. Restoration changes that equation. When a cart can be safely cleaned, sanitized, and returned to service, organizations can: This approach aligns directly with the principles of the circular economy—keeping valuable materials in use for as long as possible before disposal becomes necessary. The Environmental Value of Cart Restoration Plastic waste carts are built to withstand years of service. When they are discarded prematurely, the environmental consequences extend beyond landfill space. Manufacturing replacement carts requires raw materials, energy, transportation, and distribution. Every cart that can be restored instead of replaced represents a reduction in resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions associated with manufacturing new equipment. For municipalities seeking measurable sustainability improvements, cart restoration offers an immediate and practical solution. A single large-scale restoration project can divert hundreds of tons of plastic from landfills while preserving millions of dollars in public assets. Sustainability Beyond the Cart TBCD’s commitment to environmental responsibility extends beyond cart restoration. The company’s mobile cleaning systems incorporate advanced wastewater capture, filtration, and recycling technology designed to reduce environmental impact during cleaning operations. Using a proprietary multi-stage filtration process, wastewater is filtered and reused throughout the cleaning cycle, minimizing disposal requirements and reducing the volume of industrial wastewater generated during operations. This approach helps operators conserve water, reduce disposal costs, and maintain environmentally responsible cleaning practices. A Smarter Approach to Waste Management The waste and recycling industry is evolving. Organizations are increasingly expected to deliver measurable environmental results while controlling operational costs. Cart restoration offers a rare opportunity to accomplish both. Instead of viewing heavily soiled carts as disposable assets, municipalities and haulers can evaluate whether restoration is a viable alternative. In many cases, the answer may lead to substantial financial savings and significant environmental benefits. If one county can potentially prevent more than one million pounds of plastic from entering a landfill, imagine the impact if similar programs were adopted nationwide. The refuse industry has always focused on reducing waste. Restoring existing assets instead of replacing them is simply the next logical step. Sometimes the most sustainable solution isn’t buying something new. It’s giving what you already have a second life. Learn More About Cart Restoration Solutions Whether you’re a municipality, waste hauler, contractor, university, HOA, or solid waste authority, Trash Bin Cleaners Direct can help you reduce replacement costs, extend the life of your waste carts, and support your sustainability goals through advanced cart restoration and wastewater recycling technology.

Ten-8 Industrial Opens New Central Florida Service Center In Lake Wales, Expanding Support For Refuse and Recycling Vehicles

Nearly 34,000 square feet across two buildings strengthens McNeilus’ refuse and recycling collection vehicle service support throughout Florida. Dodge Center, MN (March 4, 2026) – McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc., an Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK) business, today announced that Ten-8 Industrial, an authorized McNeilus® dealer, has opened a new refuse and recycling collection vehicle service center in Lake Wales, Florida. The centrally located facility expands Ten-8 Industrial’s service footprint and enhances support for refuse and recycling vehicle operators across the state. Located at 2001 Thompson Nursery Rd. in Lake Wales, FL, the nearly 11-acre site includes two buildings totaling approximately 34,000 square feet and offers expansive truck parking with ample room for future growth. The primary service facility is now open and features three service bays capable of accommodating up to nine trucks, along with office space to support day-to-day operations. A second building is slated to open later this year and will serve as a parts distribution warehouse and body repair facility. The new Lake Wales location reflects the company’s continued investment in customer uptime and statewide coverage. The centralized Florida location will ensure the team can provide service, comprehensive repair, maintenance and warranty support that customers have relied on for years from Ten-8 Industrial. “Our move to Lake Wales gives us the space, infrastructure and central access we need to better serve fleets across Florida,” said Richard Downer, chief operating officer of Ten-8 Industrial. “This new service center allows us to support more vehicles at once, expand our parts capabilities and continue delivering responsive, high-quality service with the same trusted team our customers already know. As we continue investing in infrastructure and people, our focus remains on long-term partnerships and keeping fleets operational across the Southeast.” Ten-8 Industrial provides full-service support including preventive maintenance, repairs, warranty work and mobile service covering both North and South Florida. The Lake Wales facility also offers extensive truck parking and capacity for continued expansion as customer needs grow. Ten-8 Industrial is an approved warranty and service dealer for McNeilus in Florida, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. “The opening of Ten-8 Industrial’s Lake Wales service center further strengthens McNeilus’ dealer network and commitment to customers throughout the region,” said Lee Dreas, president of McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing. “With expanded capacity and a central location, Ten-8 Industrial is well positioned to deliver the reliable service, maintenance and convenient access to parts fleets depend on to keep their operations moving.” Through its independent dealer network, McNeilus remains committed to ensuring refuse and recycling customers have access to industry-leading service, support and innovation wherever they operate.
