Ten-8 Industrial opens new central Florida service center

Ten-8 Industrial, an authorized McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing dealer, has opened a new refuse and recycling collection vehicle service center in Lake Wales, Florida.  

Ten-8 says this facility expands its service footprint and enhances support for refuse and recycling vehicle operators across the state. 

The nearly 11-acre site includes two buildings totaling approximately 34,000 square feet and offers expansive truck parking. 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 company says this centralized Florida location will ensure the team can provide service, comprehensive repair, maintenance and warranty support. 

“Our move to Lake Wales gives us the space, infrastructure and central access we need to better serve fleets across Florida,” Ten-8 Chief Operating Officer Richard Downer says. “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 provides full-service support including preventive maintenance, repairs, warranty work and mobile service covering north and south Florida. The Lake Wales facility also offers extensive truck parking and capacity for continued expansion as customer needs grow. The company 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,” McNeilus President Lee Dreas says. “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.”
