After all of the loading, lifting, and heavy usage, your truck may show signs of age and will eventually need parts to be replaced. If your yard truck needs attention, these are all of the reasons you should refurbish instead of buying new.  [Read More](https://www.louisvilleswitching.com/blog/the-many-benefits-of-refurbishing-your-ottawa-truck) ## [Process of Refurbishing Ottawa Yard Trucks](https://www.louisvilleswitching.com/blog/process-of-refurbishing-ottawa-yard-trucks) Posted by [Donald Robinson](https://www.louisvilleswitching.com/blog/author/donald-robinson) Oct 20, 2015 5:01:51 PM [![](https://www.louisvilleswitching.com/hubfs/065before-300x226-1.jpg) ](https://www.louisvilleswitching.com/blog/process-of-refurbishing-ottawa-yard-trucks) The process of refurbishing an Ottawa Yard Truck is a great way to recycle a fantastic product. In some cases, yard trucks can last up to another decade after refurbishment. This prolongs the service and upholds the standards of quality of the Ottawa Yard Truck.

He is talented, service oriented, and would give you the shirt off his back. He would also give you a hat if you needed one. Chris never intended to collect so many hats, it just kind of happened. With his job, Chris is regularly meeting with new companies that can benefit from Louisville Switching’s Ottawa Switchers. When Chris has shared the amazing benefits of an Ottawa Switcher with new companies, it happens. Somehow, some way, Chris usually walks away with a hat. He doesn’t ask for them, he is like a hat magnet. When you walk into Chris’ office and look up at his file cabinet, you cannot help but notice the rows and stacks of hats. The count was at 35 last we checked. There is every color you can imagine and every logo too. Occasionally one of the crew will pass by and tell Chris that their hat got lost or it is just worn out and Chris just says, “pick one out,” and points to the top of his file cabinet. Chris jokes that he would give a hat to everyone who buys or leases an Ottawa Switcher. In truth, he knows Ottawa is the best in the business and our customers will thank him eternally for introducing them to the Ottawa brand. One of the frequent compliments Chris receives is when he pulls an Ottawa Switcher to demo for a new company and there is a little resistance from the drivers. When Chris goes to leave with the switcher the drivers demand that Chris leave it there. With a minimum of 3 to 1 ratio over a standard semi-truck, the Ottawa Switcher will dramatically improve your time-efficiency and save you money. You may even get a hat out of it.
