At Osco Tank & Truck Sales, we understand that purchasing custom trucks and tanks is not like buying a standard vehicle. You may have questions about our products, process, and options. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common inquiries from our customers.
What are the trucks and tanks for?
Our trucks and tanks are custom-built to meet each client’s specific needs. They can be configured for a wide range of applications, including:
- Firefighting apparatus (fire trucks, water tenders, foam tenders)
- Agricultural operations (fertilizer trucks, liquid transfer tanks, water trucks)
- Industrial uses (chemical storage, rapid response, dust control)
- Specialty needs (DEF trucks, stainless tanks, custom transport)
When you work with Osco, you decide exactly what your truck or tank is designed to do.
How do I know which truck or tank is right for me?
Every Osco truck and tank is custom-built, so each one is unique. We work closely with customers to determine the best specifications for your operation, including tank size, pump options, materials (Poly, stainless steel, or mild steel), and accessories. This ensures your truck or tank is perfectly suited to your work.
How many trucks and tanks have been sold?
Since 1999, Osco Tank & Truck Sales has delivered over 500 custom trucks and tanks across the United States and Canada. Check out our deliveries map to see if one of our trucks might be in your area!
Who can own a fire truck?
Anyone can own a fire truck! Many buyers purchase them for work, but decommissioned fire trucks and specialty vehicles can also be acquired for personal collections, events, or novelty purposes. Osco works with both professional and private buyers to meet their needs.
Should I refurbish or replace my fire truck?
- Refurbish if your current truck meets most of your needs but needs updates, repairs, or modern features.
- Replace if your truck is beyond repair, outdated, or no longer meets your department’s operational requirements. Osco can help you decide which option will give you the best long-term value.
Can I customize my fire truck with Osco?
Absolutely! Osco specializes in fully customizable fire apparatus. Options include:
- Specialty accessories for your unique operational needs
- Poly, stainless steel, or mild steel tanks
- Various pumps, hose reels, and water monitors
- Swing-down tank racks, hose trays, and toolboxes
