Carolina Cat serves a range of clients, from individual drivers to commercial fleets. We offer a comprehensive selection of parts from a variety of vendors, such as Cat, Bendix, Webb, Federal-Mogul and Phillips, to assist with the maintenance and repair of your on-highway trucks.
We also give drivers and fleets unmatched truck services. Our ASE Certified Technicians can handle almost any repair, and as a result, we’re proud to work on all engine and truck manufacturers, not just Cat. We know how important it is to keep your trucks on the road, so we handle repairs quickly, keeping your productivity high and your downtime low.
Quarries and Aggregates
Those in the quarries and aggregates industry know that heavy-duty, reliable equipment is a must. You have to complete a diverse range of jobs, from drilling and hauling to stripping and loading. As a result of this variety, any equipment you use should be compatible with several types of attachments, like pulverizers, rippers and loader buckets.
Alongside attachments, you must have the right equipment for your jobs. Some of the top pieces of equipment used in this industry include excavators, scrapers and off-highway trucks.
Forestry
The forestry industry requires specialized machines. When you have to complete logging, millyard, road building and land management tasks, you need forestry machines from a reputable dealer. As you look for equipment, ensure that the machines can complete common forestry tasks like clearing and harvesting with greater speed and accuracy than the competition.
Besides specialized forest machines, you can find other machines that are commonly used for forestry applications like millyard loaders, wheel loaders and skid steer loaders. Carolina Cat ensures that you receive high-quality equipment by staying on top of the forestry industry’s needs through our membership in the Carolina Loggers Association and North Carolina Forestry Association. We also partner with several forestry manufacturers to give you cutting-edge equipment.
Nursery and Landscaping
When you have landscaping projects to complete, you need equipment that can craft appealing environments and do so quickly. Tasks like soil preparation, tree installation, sod installation, and irrigation can be completed with Cat landscaping machines and attachments. As you decide on the best equipment for your needs, learn more about the attachments you can use with your Cat machines to make your fleet more versatile.
Carolina Cat’s affiliations with the Carolina’s Irrigation Association, NC Christmas Tree Association, National Association of Landscape Professionals and NC Nursery and Landscape Association highlight our commitment to serving the nursery and landscaping industry. Alongside our heavy-duty landscaping machines, we offer smaller options like our mini excavators and compact track loaders when the jobsite is tight and requires a lighter touch.

To get jobs done safely and in a cost-effective manner, you need the toughest machines around. It’s this need for toughness that draws so many to Cat equipment.
