Testimonials

“I started here eight years ago with no experience in the heavy-duty repair market. Helm Truck and Equipment invested its time and money to help me learn and grow into a lead tech and now the shop foreman. Helm Truck and Equipment is always willing to go above and beyond to better its staff. If you are a driven and hard-working employee, this is the company to work for.”

“Working at Helm Truck and Equipment has been a rewarding experience inside a great learning environment. I started work a year ago, with some background experience in mechanics. I found the benefits most appealing; training, health insurance, 401K and paid time off. At first, I was intimidated with some of the work we do on all kinds of machinery, but our teams’ willingness to help out reassured me that I can do the job. I am very proud to be a part of Helm Truck and Equipment and look forward to being here for years to come.”

“Having been in the employ of the Helm Group for twenty-five years has allowed me to grow in an industry that is constantly evolving. The trucking industry is ever changing from design and manufacture to how the end user applies the equipment to meet their needs. For us at Helm Truck and Equipment, our goal is to provide the support our customers ask for. Through that, Helm provides the means to maintain an edge over other service providers by offering factory training, in-house training and provides incentives for employee support. With these in place, the company has grown well beyond its humble beginnings to where a new plan is being implemented for new, greater expansion to better serve our customers. I’m proud to have been a part of the growth here and proud of my own, personal growth. I look forward to seeing Helm Truck and Equipment achieve continued success and continue being a vital support in the community.”
