"ECONMOBILES® are the number one answer to lower cost material handling"

Those are the words of one of the largest Masonry contractors in the country, Leonard McGee Jr. Inc. The McGee firm should know. They own one ECONMOBILE 720 and two 620's, purchased from Linco Supply Co. of Pittsburgh, Pa. When they're doing a job outside of their immediate area, they rent machines. Mr. McGee says Econmobiles are the answer to rising cost. "We palletize almost everything for high efficiency and use Econmobiles for unloading and delivery. Each one does the work of ten men. We use them on all jobs costing from $100,000 up."

What makes an Econmobile a superior materials handling vehicle? Plenty. Just choose the one that fits your picture best.
