Truck1536 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Copar Quarry Granite at the upfitterI have seen these trucks on the North Fork of Long Island and would like to photograph them. Do they also park on L.I. or take the ferry across with deliveries. A phone call to their local rep didn't help. Very suspicious as to why I would want to photograph their trucks................as usual.

refusegetter Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 They have a yard in Charlestown/ westerly ri. Go to www.thewesterlysun.com and search for "copar" or "quarry" you should find an article or two. Also there are 5 more brand new trucks tri axles at the Mack dealer in RI 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25325-connecticut-construction-trucks/page/5/#findComment-152523 Share on other sites More sharing options...

james j neiweem Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 If you go to the Copar site they talk about their enviornmentally friendly SCR Macks. They also state that they do use the ferry from LI to CT I guess. They just opened a pit in CT. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25325-connecticut-construction-trucks/page/5/#findComment-152614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
refusegetter Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I heard they opened a pit in sterling, hear-say I don't know if its true or not. There isn't a ferry from ri that I know of so they have to hop on the boat in ct. Also heard that the guys that go on the ferry can only do 1 load a day! The company must be doing something right though? Right? I've seen 12 granites in their yard and a few Pete rolloffs plus the 5 at Ballard Mack, that doesn't include the ct operation.
