About Us

We set The Standard for custom built truck bodies

For over 50 years, Maintainer has been engineering custom-built service bodies, lube trucks, and cranes that deliver durability and confidence on the job. Every weld, drawer, and crane is designed with hardworking crews in mind, from precision crane controls to efficient storage solutions that keep you organized and efficient in the field.

Who We Are

Maintainer was founded on a simple idea: equipment should work as hard as the people using it. That principle is as important to us now as the day we started.

We started in 1976 with a flatbed and fixed-boom crane designed to meet one customer’s specific needs—and we’ve been listening, building, and evolving ever since. From our first pressurized storage body in the ‘80s to today’s aluminum service bodies, patented Removable Compartments, and telematics-ready technology, we continue to raise the bar for real-world performance.

Now one of the largest manufacturers of custom mechanics service bodies, lube bodies, and extendable boom cranes in the country, Maintainer is known for delivering products that offer true value—built to last, function flawlessly, and meet the demands of the job without compromise.

But the real driving force behind everything we do is people. Our commitment to customers, employees, and suppliers runs deep. We believe everyone deserves to be treated with respect, have their voice heard, and get exactly what they need to do their best work.

The People Behind Our Products

There’s no Maintainer without the people who make it happen. That goes for every customer, supplier, and employee. We believe good business is personal. It’s about trust, consistency, and always doing the right thing.

Your truck should fit your job, not the other way around. That’s why we offer products and solutions built around real-world demands. It’s also why we’re proud to be known not just for what we build, but how we show up for the people who count on us.

Who We Build For

Our products show up where the work gets real–on job sites, in the field, and anywhere reliability is non-negotiable. Maintainer serves a wide range of industries that rely on smart design, high performance, and equipment that is built to last.

We build with real life pressures in mind, down to every bolt, drawer, and crane control.

Our Company Culture Lifts Everyone Up

As we’ve built strong equipment, we’ve built a strong workplace too. At Maintainer, we believe that when talented and caring people work toward a shared goal, there’s nothing they can’t build together.

Our culture is grounded in our core values: innovation, community, integrity, teamwork, quality, customer satisfaction, and safety. We support our people with competitive benefits, opportunities for growth, and a company-wide commitment to doing what’s right for each other, our customers, and our communities.
