Born from a Lancaster County roofing family’s search for a smarter way to remove debris, Equipter makes American-manufactured, towable and drivable equipment for roofing and construction crews. Founder and president Aaron Beiler developed the original Equipter 4000—first called the Roofer’s Buggy—after 15 years running a family roofing business with his sons. Today, the family-owned company builds equipment such as the drivable debris container and Tow-A-Lift at its Lancaster County, Pennsylvania operation.
