What to do when aging fleets meet limited budgets
The Village of Orion, Illinois' fleet included a street sweeper rebuilt twice, a rusted-out 2001 roller, and even a 1971 machine John Deere wanted for its museum. Stuck with aging, oversized equipment and limited resources, the public works team turned to Sourcewell cooperative contracts to find right-sized equipment — including a new backhoe, grader, and skid loader — that fit both their needs and their budget.
“You don’t need to buy very large-scale equipment. You can downsize, save money, and still get the job done.” – Weston Ferry, Street Superintendent, Village of Orion, Illinois
