Used iesco Equipment Sold by Meadoworks

Jesco Industries, Inc. traces its roots to 1932, when Herbert James Sr. founded James Welding in Detroit, Michigan. The business passed through three generations of the James family before Bonny DesJardin, the founder's granddaughter, took over in 2005 and earned Women's Business Enterprise certification in 2015. Over the decades the company relocated to Litchfield in Hillsdale County, Michigan, where it now operates more than 90,000 square feet of manufacturing floor space and builds every product it sells.

The flagship product line is the JescoHuskyDumper series of all-welded steel self-dumping hoppers, available in gauges ranging from 12 ga. general-purpose units to heavy 7 ga. scrap-steel models, in capacities from 0.25 to 2.5 cubic yards and beyond. Configurations include standard forklift-compatible hoppers, caster-mounted portable units, low-profile hoppers designed to slide under CNC machines and shears, and the JescoHydraTilt hydraulic dumper that operates directly off a forklift's hydraulic system. Beyond hoppers, Jesco produces chip and waste trucks, manual tilt trucks, wire mesh partitions and security fencing, industrial guard rail systems, storage lockers, shop carts, and maintenance work platforms.

Jesco equipment serves a broad range of end markets, including metal fabrication shops, CNC machining centers, automotive manufacturing, warehousing and distribution, construction, waste management, and general industrial facilities. The hoppers are particularly valued in scrap and chip management applications wherever forklifts are in regular use, and the wire mesh and guarding products are widely specified for facility safety compliance.

Buyers seeking used Jesco self-dumping hoppers and material handling equipment on the secondary market are drawn to the brand's all-welded construction, heavy-gauge steel bodies, and straightforward mechanical design that requires minimal maintenance. Because Jesco manufactures domestically and keeps replacement hardware as standard components, parts availability is reliable. The rugged build quality means well-maintained units retain their structural integrity and safe load ratings for many years, making used Jesco hoppers a cost-effective alternative to new equipment for facilities managing scrap, chips, or bulk waste.
