Curbtender, Inc.

Curbtender Inc designs and manufactures refuse collection vehicles in Cedar Falls, Iowa and Gothenburg, Nebraska. The company derives its name from the storied Curbtender automated side loading refuse truck (ASL).

History

The Curbtender was the first commercially produced ASL in the US Waste Industry. Developed in the early 1970’s, it quickly became the benchmark for performance. Its 2,000 pound lift arm capacity and 1,000 pound per cubic yard compaction rating set itself above the rest. In 2017, the company renamed this flagship product the PowerPak. The PowerPak is now equipped with an industry-best 5 year standard warranty.

In 2017, the company purchased the assets of Wayne Industrial Holdings LLC and named Kevin Watje as the Chief Executive Officer of Curbtender Inc. Mark Watje is President and Bartt Weichers is Vice-President. Curbtender’s executive team holds over a combined 55 years of experience in the waste industry.
