About MacQueen

From small beginnings back in 1961, MacQueen evolved to what it is today: the premier dealer, supplier, and partner to private companies and municipalities throughout the Midwest. With over a dozen locations, we service cities, towns, and businesses by providing the street sweepers, sewer cleaners, garbage trucks, snow removal equipment and vacuum excavators that keep communities functional, clean, and safe.

In 2016, MacQueen became an authorized Pierce fire truck dealer, and MacQueen Emergency was born. Today we sell, service, and support fire apparatus and other life-saving emergency equipment for fire departments across our territory. We also acquired two long-standing companies - Bell Equipment and 5 Alarm - to bolster our network.

MacQueen is growing, and we're looking for qualified job seekers to grow with us. We offer a family-first, flexible environment with ample opportunities for professional development.

At MacQueen, we make work play. We tackle complex challenges, work hard, high-five and celebrate. We're risk-takers, fast learners, and trailblazers. We pride ourselves on integrity and work to improve the lives of everyone who dedicates their talents to our company. Together, we're redefining an industry in desperate need of a shakeup.
