Hudson County Motors Opens New Facility

Jan. 8, 2020

Volvo Trucks North America’s Hudson County Motors dealership has relocated to a brand new facility in Secaucus, New Jersey.

“Hudson County Motors is well known across the tri-state area, dedicating decades to servicing the trucking community of New Jersey and the surrounding areas,” said Jeff Lester, senior VP of sales for Volvo. “The investment in its new, state-of-the-art facility is further proof of this dealership’s commitment to its customers and reputation for outstanding service.”

Located off of the New Jersey Turnpike on I-95, six miles west of New York City, the new Hudson County Motors facility features a retail parts store and a service area with 33 service bays, two wash bays and the latest in diagnostic technology.

“Our new facility represents the hard work and commitment of three generations of our employees and our appreciation for our loyal customers in the tri-state area,” said Ben Bellini, Hudson County Motors general manager. “We’re excited for what this move means for us and for our ability to serve our customers.”

The new location is nearly 100,000 square feet, a significant expansion from the company’s previous facility that was 22,000 square feet. The new facility includes a customer lounge, parts showroom, expanded truck parking, and a new express lane for pre-ordered parts pickup. The expansion has also led to an increase in personnel with double the amount of technicians on staff and newly hired service greeters, intended to help expedite the customer service process.

More than half of all heavy trucks now in use are more than 10 years old, according to industry estimates, so their diesels lack pollution controls used in modern trucks. Operators keep the old, reliable vehicles because they can’t or won’t spend money on expensive new equipment.
