Heil Environmental — Fort Payne Plant

Heil Environmental's Fort Payne operation manufactures refuse-collection truck bodies. DeKalb County's economic development authority lists the local operation at 1,000 employees, meeting this directory's minimum exactly.

The published employer table does not give a separate workforce reference date. Its count is retained as a reported local estimate, and should be rechecked before using it in a current ranking or a comparison with another employer.

An official Terex recruiting notice identifies the Heil work location as 106 45th Street NE, Fort Payne, AL 35967. For current openings, start with Heil's careers page rather than assuming an older vacancy is still available. Ask the hiring team for arrival and parking instructions when you receive your assignment.
