Doosan Infracore North America has added Bobcat of Juneau to its dealer network. A full line of Doosan heavy equipment will be available at the company’s Juneau and Ketchikan, Alaska locations.
“For the last seven years, we’ve been carrying Doosan equipment in our rental fleet so we were familiar with the quality,” says company owner and CEO Colter Boehm. “We’re able to get a reliable machine with a local warranty service department. The brand is pretty well known in the logging industry, which is another big plus.”
Bobcat of Juneau was started in 2007 by Colter Boehm and his father, Jeff Boehm, who is still active in the business.

Volvo Construction Equipment has announced a new financing option for the company's electric compact equipment. The all-inclusive leasing package bundles charging, maintenance, repairs and other services at a more cost-effective price than purchasing separately.
Customers in the US and Canada can work with their local Volvo CE dealer and Volvo Financial Services to set the length of the contract, determine how many hours each machine could operate, and negotiate monthly payments.
The all-inclusive package includes:
An equipment maintenance plan for the electric machines. Lessees will have the option to bring machines into their Volvo dealer location for maintenance or have a dealer come to them.
Extended coverage for repairs, beyond the factory warranty period.
Physical damage insurance (currently only available in the United States) in the event of a covered accident that causes damage to the machine.
The option to finance a charger alongside the lease with a single monthly payment. The charger is purchased, not leased, but it's financed within the same terms and rates as the complete package.
Up to a 15% monthly cost savings on the bundle of electric compact machines compared to acquiring items separately.
A simplified early termination option at 24 months.
