Why SWS

OUR STORY

For over 35 years, SWS has been a trusted partner in providing top-quality equipment sales, service, and rentals across a wide range of industries. Founded in Spokane, WA, in 1990, we started with compaction and baler products, but our offerings have since expanded to include refuse bodies, street sweepers, commercial snow blowers, sewer equipment, and more.

As we grew, so did our commitment to exceptional service. In 2011, we opened a full-service and parts facility in Tacoma, WA, and in 2018, we added a third location in Wilsonville, OR. These expansions allowed us to better serve our customers and broaden our product range.

In 2021, SWS secured a majority growth investment from a Pacific Northwest-based family office, providing us with the resources to continue thriving and expanding. This partnership has empowered us to better meet the needs of our growing customer base.

In 2024, we proudly opened new locations in Boise, ID, and Billings, MT, further strengthening our presence across the region. With our ongoing commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction, SWS is well-positioned for continued success in the years ahead.
