What We Do . . .  

The Fleet Maintenance Department keeps City government going by repairing and maintaining more than 350 vehicles and heavy equipment, used for all city services except school buses. Fleet fuels all government vehicles, including school buses, fire and trash trucks, street sweepers, and vehicles for Redevelopment & Housing.

Fleet also orders and maintains a large inventory of automotive parts, keeps up on the latest changes effecting the industry, handles invoices for city vehicles, completes daily reports, and charges out all fleet inventory used daily.  The City of Waynesboro relies on Fleet’s expertise when acquiring new vehicles to meet program needs.
One critical operation is preparing the vehicles to be used during snow and ice events. Approximately 26 vehicles are used for this purpose, including heavy dump trucks and large pick-up trucks that are used to spread salt and plow the streets, as well as the equipment used to load salt onto these trucks.

An expert mechanic is a genuine treasure. ASE certification is the recognized industry standard for highly trained and qualified automotive technicians. We have ASE certification in Air Conditioning/Refrigeration, Brakes, and Advanced Engine Diagnostics.  Our mechanics have also completed certificate programs in welding, hydraulics, diagnostics, and diesel engine power tips.  We have five mechanics, two equipment technicians, and a Utility Worker, all of whom are committed to providing the best possible service to our employees’ transportation needs.
