Our Company's History

In 1976, our President, Jerry Tracey, started the Tracey Companies out of a small shop in Syracuse, NY.

Having previously worked at a construction dealership, he already had a hand in the trucking and construction industries. Throughout our earliest years, Jerry shopped for the highest-quality and best names in the business and became the appointed dealer for many of the leading quality product lines that we still proudly represent today.

In the years that followed, Tracey Road Equipment grew at a tremendous rate. The early-1980’s allowed us to boost our staff and ultimately expand the company. Meanwhile, we embraced the opportunity to modernize, renovate, and expand our corporate facilities, transforming our main offices and shop into the state-of-the-art facilities where we still do business today.

As a result of our increasing success in Syracuse, our continual commitment to customer service, and a growing customer-base, Jerry set sights on expanding the Tracey Companies throughout New York State.

Today, Tracey’s Corporate Offices, contemporary shop, and beautiful facilities are situated on 38 acres in East Syracuse, New York. Combined with our 6 additional state-of-the-art facilities spanning New York State that are located in Albany, Binghamton, Queensbury, Rochester, Utica, and Watertown, our facilities are among the biggest and best heavy-duty truck and construction equipment dealerships in the region. We have invested in building and maintaining the finest facilities, representing quality products backed by an insightful sales team, developing an immense rental fleet, staffing a knowledgeable parts team, and sustaining a trained, committed service department.

What originated as Jerry Tracey’s dream has now become our legacy – at Tracey Road Equipment, we’re committed to customer satisfaction and will go above and beyond to provide exceptional service to current and potential customers. We strive to build permanent relationships and earn customers for life, and we genuinely appreciate each and every opportunity we are given to be of service to you and be a solution provider.
