Trucks
Waste and recycling
Smooth driving, quick stops. Drivers must handle narrow streets and heavy traffic, stopping and starting hundreds of times every single day. That puts a lot of demand on both drivers and trucks, and there are also increasing environmental restrictions. Here, you can find the right trucks for the job – whether rear, side, or skip loaders – as well as electric and low-entry models to meet your needs.
Clean, safe, and compliant
The waste and recycling industry leads the way in sustainability. As a result, public expectations are at their highest – and your truck operation needs to provide low emissions, low noise, and high safety.
Built for a very specific job
Trucks need to be maneuverable as well as fully adapted to the material they are carrying. Also, on shorter routes with many stops, drivers might be in and out of their cabs hundreds of times each day. Flexible tailored chassis, power take-offs, and low-entry cabs will give you the right options.
Keeping everything moving
It’s a fast-paced job with little room for unexpected stops and downtime. You need the right service and maintenance support to keep your trucks rolling. You also need to train your drivers and keep them at their best to maximize uptime and productivity.
