BOOMTRUX INC.
Carlton Calfee, Jr., Founder and President of Boomtrux Inc.
- Carlton’s passion for boom trucks began early, when his dad founded Grove Machinery, (the original Grove dealer in the southeastern part of the United States) in 1961. With decades of experience, Carlton founded Boomtrux, Inc. in 2008 focusing on used cranes purchased from Florida customers devastated by the economy. Always a visionary, Carlton hired Erik Mikkelsen as General Manager and has expanded the company into the #1 Boom Truck Specialist in America.
His vast experience includes being the President of Certified Crane, focusing on new and used crane sales and Vice President & Sales Manager for Hydraulic Machinery, Inc. where he was responsible for 75% of sales. Carlton was the Fleet Manager for the seventh largest roofing supply company and at Custom Truck and Equipment, Carlton held the position of Southeast Regional Manager, training the Altec Utility Sales staff how to sell cranes to power company fleet managers.
Carlton has not only designed, built and supervised construction and installation of over 100 different truck bodies for cranes and trucks; but he has done consulting work for non-competing equipment dealerships on how to buy and sell excess equipment. He also has done equipment evaluations for select customers.
Prior to joining Carlton in 2009 at Boomtrux, Inc., he was a Financial Advisor for a Fortune 500 company, an Accounting Manager at a major jewelry retain chain and a General Manager in the Hospitality industry.
In 2006, Erik joined a national roofing supply distribution company, acting as accounting liaison to the Fleet Director for the 600 vehicle fleet; introducing cost metrics analysis for fleet utilization and fixed asset tracking and budgeting for fleet expenses.

Florida Concrete & Products Association, Member
"In business for sixteen years and working in the Cell Tower industry since 2013, Carlton Calfee, Boomtrux Inc. Owner, called on me about a new Manitex 40/124. Carlton and Erik went to great lengths to make the sale possible and subsequently sold us two additional cranes in 2013 and 2014. Since that first purchase, we have bought five more machines which helped with the success of Superior Crane. Their Service department was more than willing to help when the cranes needed service or repairs as they knew these machines were working every day and understood the costs of downtime. As a result of Boomtrux' help & support over the years Superior Crane will continue to be a loyal customer for many years to come. Thank you to all the Boomtrux staff for your continued business relationship with our company."
