CELEBRATING OUR 24th YEAR!

Alexander Equipment was founded in 1988 by Steve Johnston. The office was a spare room in the house, the parts department was in the garage and the “machine inventory” was a single Morbark “Eeger Beever” chipper parked at a local storage facility.  

It was a very simple operation – call customers, schedule demonstrations, hopefully sell a machine and then drive to Morbark to get another.  It was not a get rich quick program …

Since then, we’ve gradually grown into the Midwest’s largest supplier of Tree Care Equipment. Our 18,000 square foot service facility in Lisle, Illinois is packed with over $2 million in inventory -  right down the block from where our lone demonstrator chipper was stored 24 years ago.

Our current product line includes Morbark brush chippers, J.P. Carlton stump grinders, Timberwolf Log Splitters, Stihl power equipment, Boxer Mini Skid-Steers, FAE Mulching Equipment and a complete line of Arborist Supplies. We also boast the largest selection of Used Equipment in the industry.

Our biggest asset, however, is our people. We are fortunate to have an extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff that will focus on your long term success and work hard to make sure you are completely satisfied every time you buy from us.

We believe repeat business is the key to growth and the only way to earn customer loyalty is to handle even the smallest parts order as if it were a major machine sale.

Thanks for visiting our site. We look forward to working with you!
