New American JCB 3CX Dealerships




Black Equipment Company is the latest company to join JCB's North American dealer network for providing new and used jcb 3cxs. Black JCB will provide new and used equipment sales and rentals to the construction and material handling industries, as well as offering a 24 hour parts and maintenance service. The new dealer is based in Evansville, Indiana, but will have dealerships in Hopkinsville and Paducah, Kentucky to supply jcb 3cx for sale.

Scott Bonnell, president of Black JCB, says that the new dealer has picked the industry-leader as a partner to grow its business.

"By becoming a JCB dealer, we're expanding our product offering to both new and existing customers," said Bonnell, adding: "We're impressed with JCB's quality machines and their leadership within the global construction equipment market. As the leaders in our local market, it just makes sense for us to join forces with JCB."

Black JCB has 140 employees, and is the only locally owned company providing material handling equipment sales and service for jcb 3cx in Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois and Tennesee where it operates six facilities. The company was founded in 1956 by the late M.J. Black, and Black JCB remains a family-owned company to this day.

"Our company's focus has always been on service," Bonnell said. "We have technical service employees on staff who have been with our company for over 30 years. As a result, our customers can rest assured that our technicians and salespeople will do whatever it takes to get them the best equipment for their needs and keep that equipment up and running for top performance and productivity.

"Like other businesses throughout the country, companies in our area conserved money with fewer capital expenditures over the past few years. However, we're starting to see improvement, and we're now forecasting slow, steady growth. "

"JCB is very pleased to bring a quality dealer like Black Equipment, or now Black JCB on board," said John Patterson, chairman and CEO for JCB North America. "Over the years, its staff has built an outstanding reputation for providing quality sales and service, and I have no doubt that they will be excellent ambassadors for the JCB brand."

£5K Reward Offered after Plant Hire Firm's JCB 3CX for Sale Stolen




Solway Plant Hire have offered a £5000 reward, after three vehicles including a jcb 3cx for sale were stolen from the Wishaw area in North Lanarkshire.

The machines had been supplied to North Lanarkshire Council to assist with snow removal operations in Scotland. All three vehicles were in Wishaw on snow clearing duties when they were stolen. The thieves took a digger, tractor and a jcb 3cx worth over £160,000.

Jason McLurg from Solway Plant Hire, owners of jcb 3cx for sale in Dumfries, has offered the cash reward for information which leads to the return of the vehicles, which police believe will still be in the area.

Mr McLurg, whose plant hire firm has around 40 vehicles in his fleet, said: “I’m sick, it couldn’t have happened at a worse time. We were up doing snow clearing for both North and South Lanarkshire Councils and we had taken eight vehicles there.

“On December 11 a John Deere tractor and a Caterpillar digger were stolen from the Tesco car park in Wishaw during the night. A few days later a JCB 3CX was stolen from a secure compound in Range Road, Motherwell."

McLurg is confident there is still a chance to find the stolen machines, and asks for locals to be vigilant. “I believe they are still within a 20 or 30 mile radius of where they were stolen. I think they are still in the central belt."

He added: "I’m desperate for them back, which is why I have put up the reward. It was the first time we had helped out and we still are, but now we only have five vehicles instead of eight.”

The three vehicles stolen were a John Deere 6830 Tractor with a snowplough fitted to the front, a Caterpillar 432 Digger and a jcb 3cx. Locals have been encouraged to contact police with any information on the stolen equipment.
