Baton Rouge-based H&E Equipment Services Inc. has relocated its Georgetown branch to an expanded facility in Temple, Texas.

The branch specializes in earthmoving equipment, aerial lifts, telescopic forklifts, and general construction machinery. In addition to a large equipment rental fleet, the facility provides expanded new and used equipment sales, parts availability within 24 hours for most items, in-shop and mobile service repairs, training, and other services.

The company said the Temple facility is more strategically located just off of Interstate 35 to serve contractors with faster response times to Temple, Belton, Killeen, Waco and surrounding areas.

The 20,000-square-foot facility sits on 6 acres with a fully fenced yard area, offices, parts warehouse and a six-bay shop. The service department is capable of handling repairs for a variety of general, industrial, construction and earthmoving equipment. In addition to a large equipment rental fleet, the facility provides expanded new and used equipment sales, parts availability within 24 hours for most items, in-shop and mobile service repairs, training and other services.

Founded in 1961, H&E has 20 locations in Texas and additional locations nationwide throughout the Pacific Northwest, West Coast, Intermountain, Southwest, Gulf Coast, Southeast and mid-Atlantic regions.
