Case Construction Equipment and its dealer Sonsray Machinery provided equipment and support to Team Rubicon for land clearing and demolition work in Pinal County, Arizona, as part of recovery efforts from the Margo Fire, which hit in April 2021. The effort helped clear more than 286 tons of debris from neighborhoods and homesites affected by the wildfire, which burned more than 1,200 acres near Dudleyville, Arizona. 

Equipment provided included a CX145D SR excavator, a 721G wheel loader, and a TR340 compact track loader. Sonsray has previously supported wildfire cleanups in Arizona and sent equipment cross country for hurricane cleanup, according to a press release. The company recently expanded into Arizona in January of 2021.
