Overview

Other fire trucks covers specialty and miscellaneous fire apparatus not in standard categories — rescue units, water tenders, brush trucks, foam units, rehab and command vehicles. These rigs combine a chassis, pump/tank/foam systems, electrical gear and custom bodies built for specific incidents at municipal, industrial or airport sites. When buying used, inspect pump performance, body corrosion, hydraulic and aerial systems, and review maintenance and certification records.

FAQ

What should I check when buying a used "other" fire truck?

Check pump hours and test pump performance, inspect tank and foam systems for leaks, review chassis and engine service records, look for body corrosion or frame damage, verify hydraulics/aerials operate smoothly, and confirm any certifications or NFPA compliance if required.

How do I arrange safe shipping for a fire truck?

Use a heavy-equipment carrier or lowboy trailer with oversize permits if needed. Drain water/foam tanks, secure loose equipment, disconnect batteries, protect ladders and aerials, insure the load, and plan routes for height/weight limits.

What routine maintenance is essential for these trucks?

Perform pump tests and run the pump regularly, change fluids and filters, test hoses and valves, inspect electrical and hydraulic systems, treat and repair corrosion, and keep up with annual certifications and manufacturer service intervals.
