Mountain West is a second-generation, family-owned group of dealerships serving the transportation, commercial equipment, golf, and grounds-care industries throughout the western United States. Through Mountain West Utility Trailer and Mountain West Power Equipment, we provide the equipment, parts, service, rentals, and support our customers need to keep their businesses moving.
Mountain West Utility Trailer operates eight strategically located dealerships in Salt Lake City and St. George, Utah; North Las Vegas, Nevada; Tolleson and Tucson, Arizona; Boise and Idaho Falls, Idaho; and Spokane, Washington. Located along major freight corridors, these dealerships serve the semi-trailer, transport refrigeration, vocational equipment, and yard truck industries.
Our history began in 1982 with the founding of Utility Trailer Sales of Utah, Inc. For more than four decades, the company built a reputation for dependable equipment, knowledgeable service, and long-term customer relationships. In 2020, the business became known as 1580 Utility Trailer, reflecting the location of its Salt Lake City headquarters near the intersection of Interstates 15 and 80.
Beginning in 2025, the Mountain West organization expanded across the region through the acquisition of established equipment dealerships in Idaho, Washington, and Arizona. This growth created a stronger regional network while preserving the local teams, industry knowledge, and customer relationships that made each business successful.
Mountain West later expanded into the commercial power equipment and golf cart industries through the acquisition of RMT Equipment. Today, the company operates as Mountain West Power Equipment, combining RMT Equipment’s established local reputation and experienced team with the resources and support of the Mountain West organization.
The transition from RMT Equipment to Mountain West Power Equipment represents more than a name change. It marks the next stage in the company’s growth while maintaining the knowledgeable service and customer relationships the business was built on. Customers can continue working with a team that understands their equipment, their industries, and the demands of keeping their operations productive.
Mountain West Power Equipment provides tractors, commercial lawn and grounds-care equipment, golf carts, utility vehicles, parts, and service. We proudly represent respected manufacturers such as KIOTI, Jacobsen, Grasshopper, E-Z-GO, Cushman, Smithco, and other leading equipment brands.
Our customers include golf courses, commercial landscapers, municipalities, property managers, agricultural operations, businesses, and homeowners. Whether a customer needs a tractor, a commercial mower, a golf cart, a utility vehicle, replacement parts, or dependable equipment service, our team is committed to helping them find the right solution.
While our name has changed and our organization has grown, our commitment remains the same. We are guided by a shared vision:
Keep America Moving, Exceed Expectations, and Deliver SMILEs.
Our decisions and relationships are guided by five core values represented by the acronym SMILE:
- Serve
- Move Forward
- Industry Leader
- Learn
- Embrace Change
From helping a golf course maintain its grounds to supplying a business, municipality, or property owner with dependable equipment, our goal is to deliver a SMILE during every interaction.
