Parts Support

Get the Right Part for Your Truck

Preferred Truck and Equipment provides parts support for garbage trucks and recycling trucks, helping customers find the right parts and avoid unnecessary downtime. We work with fleet managers, shop supervisors, and owner-operators across Northern California and Western Nevada to track down the components that keep trucks earning.

Whether you know the exact part number or just know what's broken, we'll help you figure it out. Give us what information you have — truck make, body style, photos, descriptions — and we'll do the rest.

Faster Identification

Help us find the right part faster.

The more information you can share upfront, the faster we can identify and source the part you need. You don't need every detail — but the items below help us narrow it down quickly.

If you're not sure what something is called, send us a photo. If you don't have the VIN, describe the truck and we'll work with what you've got. Our goal is to get you the right part, not to make you become a parts expert.

Truck make and model
Year, manufacturer, and model help us narrow down compatibility.
Body style
Frontload, rear load, sideload, or split-body — the part depends on the setup.
VIN or unit number
If available, this is the fastest way to confirm the exact part you need.
Part description
What the part does, where it goes, and what it's replacing.
Photos if available
A clear photo of the part or the area where it mounts speeds up identification.
Urgency and timeline
Let us know if the truck is down or if this is routine maintenance.
Your location
Delivery or pickup options depend on where you are in our service area.
Installation Help

Need help installing the part?

PT&E may be able to help with installation support, including certain systems such as camera systems. Whether we can install a part depends on the component, the truck, and your service location — but it's always worth asking.

Contact the team to discuss the part, the truck, and the service location. We'll let you know if installation support is available for your situation, or if the part is something your shop can handle on its own.

Installation support availability

  • Camera systems and related electronics — often supported.
  • Body components and hydraulics — depends on the job.
  • Chassis and engine parts — usually handled by your shop or a chassis specialist.
  • On-site vs. in-shop — depends on location and job scope.
