I am the fleet manager for Legacy Service Partners, which is a private equity owned conglomerate of residential HVAC, plumbing and electrical businesses. With our significant acquisition growth over the last 3.5+ years, Merchants has been an instrumental partner as our fleet has expanded from 200 vehicles to 1,700+ today. Merchants has helped drive strategy and support leading to cost savings and overall efficiency. I would personally recommend them as the premier fleet management company.

How much can I save by using these fleet solutions?

Standardized upfits include shelving, partitions, ladder racks, storage modules, lighting, power inverters, safety accessories, branding options, and more.
