RDO Equipment Co. celebrated the opening of its new West Haven facility on Friday, Oct. 30, 2026, according to a Standard-Examiner report published Oct. 31, 2026.
The company moved from its former location off Midland Drive to a new site on S 1900 W to accommodate significant growth.
The new facility provides expanded service capabilities, including 12 full-service bays and two indoor wash bays. West Haven Store Manager Seth Anderson stated the company outgrew its previous small facility, which only contained two small bays.
With the new location, RDO Equipment Co. expects to support customers locally rather than relying on a sister branch in Salt Lake. Anderson noted the company can now perform complete machine rebuilds from the bottom up, whereas the previous location was primarily used for triage and patching holes.
The expansion includes a substantial increase in on-site inventory. According to Anderson, the company's parts inventory grew from approximately $600,000 at the old location to over $2 million at the new facility.
Staffing levels have also increased. The company grew from eight employees at the old facility to 29 employees at the new location, with plans for further growth, Anderson said.
During a ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday, Oct. 30, 2026, West Haven City Mayor Rob Vanderwood noted the importance of the project for the city. He stated that West Haven relies heavily on sales tax rather than property tax to provide benefits to residents and businesses.
Rep. Blake Moore also spoke during the ceremony, noting that job growth in the equipment industry indicates the broader community is growing and creating opportunities for multiple industries.
Tim Stokes, RDO Equipment Co. general manager of Northern Utah operations, said the company is proud to show the new facility to the community, partners, and contractors.
