About Amtruck

We are a proudly Canadian company serving municipalities and private service providers throughout North America.

Commitment. Trust. Service.

Amtruck Limited provides garbage trucks.

We believe in long-term relationships as buying or renting a garbage truck is not like buying a used car. Our customers do not drive away to never again see the dealer so we’re in it for the long haul. Repeat customers are the key to our longevity.

Our customers are businesses adding a valued piece of equipment to their operations and Amtruck plays a key role in their fleet management initiatives.

Garbage trucks are Our Business

Great companies do one thing, and they do it better than anyone else. Garbage trucks are our business.

Garbage trucks are not our side business or a smaller department among our lines of business. Garbage trucks are the business.

An Established Network

Over 40 years in this sector, we have built an extensive network of suppliers and partners. We maintain an inventory of trucks from leading manufacturers. When you need something outside our inventory, we draw on our extensive network to source it for you.

North America-Wide Coverage

Amtruck Limited provides garbage trucks throughout North America.

Imagine taking a road trip from Iowa to Newfoundland stopping in Moosonee on the edge of Ontario’s far north along the way. We’ve done it. Our trucks travel by road, train and ferry and whether you’re in Canada, USA or another country, Amtruck can deliver on your needs.

Our STORY

Amtruck Ltd. was launched by Peter Levy in Toronto, Canada in 1985. Peter initially established the company as a dealer sourcing parts from different types of trucks, but quickly found that providers throughout North America needed a dependable provider of new, used and rental trucks.

In the decades since those early days, the company has grown in many ways:

  • Expanding our sourcing network
  • Growing our maintenance and certification services
  • Establishing trusted relationships throughout the industry
  • Adding a truck rental service

Today we’re a leader that’s continually growing and adapting to new marketplace demands.

Amtruck CEO Russell Levy joined the company in 1987 and became a partner in 1992.

Our Quality Commitment

Quality is fundamental to everything Amtruck does. Our vehicles are certified. We stand behind our products. We provide service manuals and operators’ manuals. We arrange the delivery.

Russell Levy, CEO

“Amtruck focuses on one thing — garbage trucks. When you need a truck, we find the make and model that best meets your needs.”

“When I tell people that I sell and rent garbage trucks, it may sound like a funny way to make a living. But it’s critical to the way our communities work. When you need a truck, Amtruck is the first place you’d go. We’re ready.”
