Arthur Trovei & Sons, Inc
82 Sleepy Hollow Road, Sparrow Bush, New York, United States

Arthur Trovei & Sons, Inc. was established by Arthur Trovei in 1931. At that time, the business consisted of buying/selling rags and scrap metal. Arthur was later joined by his two sons, Lambert Trovei and Joe Trovei. In time, Arthur and Joe both left the business in Lambert's hands. He was then joined in the 1970's by his son, Art Trovei, straight out of college.
In the 1980's, Joe Scherr approached Lambert and Art with a business proposition. They agreed to rent him a portion of their land for him to set up his truck sales lot. As the years progressed, Joe taught Art the truck parts and sales business. When Joe passed on, he told Art to stick with the trucks and the business' primary focus has since centered on truck sales.
In the 1990's, Art's best friend Tony was hired to manage the company and also to strengthen relationships with our export customers. The company entered the "computer age" in 2000, when Stephen Trovei created trovei.com.

Throughout the years, the company has evolved from a simple scrap metal recycling business to include the following:

Truck Sales
Truck Parts Sales
Forklift and Other Machinery Sales
Trailer Sales and Rentals
Overseas Container Sales and Rentals
Scrap Metal Recycling

Scrap Processing

Our company has been in the scrap processing business for over 75 years. We break down our loads of ferrous and nonferrous metals into large piles of scrap. The scrap is cut into smaller, more manageable sizes with our shear and then loaded into dump trailers using our electromagnet crane. The scrap is then sent to larger metal processing plants.

Truck Parts Sales

We walk through the yard with our retail/export parts customers to look for trucks with parts that will fill their needs. Each customer is assigned a specific color of paint and each part they want is marked with the paint and assigned a number. The number is recorded along with a description of the piece and where it is located. When the order has been completed, the list is given to our dismantlers. Using the list, they collect all the parts and bring them to our loading dock. Our company has the capability to load all types of trailers and containers using forklifts, loading docks, cranes, etc. Parts are then carefully loaded and packed into an overseas container or trailer. Each piece is double checked against the list to ensure order accuracy. The fully loaded container is then weighed to make sure that it is not over the legal weight limit. Once that has been completed, the container is sealed and sent on its way.

Truck Processing

Every truck that is purchased is brought to our shop where it is checked out by our mechanics. An inventory card is written describing the truck fully including any problems that may be present. Parts trucks are drained of fluids into waste barrels that are picked up by licensed liquid waste companies who dispose of them properly. Resale trucks are evaluated and prepped to be placed in our sales lot. Our parts inventory is tracked via a spreadsheet and our current inventory can be viewed on this website.

Deliveries/Pick Ups

Deliveries and pick ups are made using our Landoll trailers, lowboys, rolloffs, rollbacks, dump trailers, and flatbeds.
