There is a plethora of trucks and equipment that the refuse industry calls upon in order to serve its purpose.
The Hook Lift Truck is one such machine.
Not unlike the cable hoist roll-off truck, the primary function of a hook lift truck is to pick up and deliver waste containers of assorted sizes.
These trucks are ideal for the waste, forestry, landscaping, construction and roofing industries.
Since hook loader hoists containers right onto the bed of the truck instead of rolling them on, compatible containers and bodies don’t need nose rollers or rear wheels. There are many advantages of using a hook hoist roll-off truck, including:
- Hauling many types of truck bodies or Roll Off / Hook Lift Containers, which can significantly cut costs for contractors, municipalities and others by reducing fleet sizes
- Hook hoists can do the work of several truck systems; just add truck bodies or containers as needed
- Convenient, ground-level loading and unloading of materials
- Fast changeovers
- The ability of drivers to complete a pick-up or drop-off safely, within the cab of their truck
