Milton CAT

Milton CAT is the Caterpillar Dealer for the Northeast region of the United States. Our territory includes Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and upstate New York.

We are a private company, founded in 1960, owned by the family who started the business fifty years ago. Since those early days, Milton CAT has grown to 12 locations, and over 1,000 employees. We're consistently named one of the world's top CAT dealers in terms of sales volume and we're well-known for our progressive practices. In addition to the complete range of Caterpillar equipment, we also sell and service several other top brands that complement the Caterpillar brand.

The company has two main divisions; Earthmoving and Power Systems.

The Earthmoving Division sells, rents and supports machinery and work tools for segments that include the construction, landscaping, forestry, mining, quarry, crushing and screening and municipal sectors.

The Power Systems Division sells, rents and supports power generators and air compressors, and has a specialized engineering group that develops customized power systems. Those Milton CAT locations close to water have a marine focus; an industrial group markets engines to manufacturers to power their own machines and the on-highway truck engine business is an important component for all our locations. Our Power Systems service technicians also work on bus and mobile home engines and they support natural gas distribution working at pipeline compressor stations.
