Helping our communities get to work
We’ve been providing the highest quality vocational vehicles to local governments, school districts, hospitals, and other public authorities for over 40 years. We’ll work to get you the right price and the right vehicle to get the job done. Our close relationship with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts enables us to offer special programs for Mass. authorities.
I’ve been doing business with Ballard Truck Center for over 30 years and it’s always been a positive experience. They ALWAYS do what they say they are going to do and if there’s ever a problem, they fix it right away.
