DATTCO’s New Space 

The newly acquired property features a 17,120-square-foot building and maintenance facility with five garage bays, office space, and additional industrial parcels. 

The expanded facility will enable DATTCO to grow its fleet capacity, modernize operations, and better serve the transportation needs of schools, universities, and organizations across Central Massachusetts, said the company.

“This expansion represents much more than a new facility — it’s an investment in people, progress, and the Worcester community,” said Donald DeVivo, president of DATTCO. “We’re thrilled to bring our family-owned values and decades of transportation expertise to this dynamic region. The Millbury facility allows us to expand our operations, create good-paying local jobs, and deliver the dependable service that has defined DATTCO for over a century.”

Continuing to Build

DATTCO currently partners with leading regional institutions, including Assumption University, Nichols College, Dean College, and the Worcester Railers. 

The new facility will strengthen these partnerships while allowing DATTCO to expand its charter and school bus services throughout Central Massachusetts.
