Introducing the Jack-Of-All-Trades 8-Ton Truck.
Looking for a bigger size and more versatility? Introducing the Jack-of-all-trades 8-ton truck.
8 tons of raw power! This is certainly one of our most diverse trucks in the fleet, and it’s one of our (and our clients’) favourites. Why? Let’s break it down!
#1 It comes in many different configurations
While we love the smaller trucks in our fleet, the 8-ton truck offers so much versatility in terms of the wide range of configurations it comes it. We’re talking dropside, panel van, fridge truck, curtain side, hazchem, tail lift and crane truck – literally, a Jack of all trades!
#2 It has a good size-to-distance ratio
When you’re looking for efficiency in a truck, look no further! The 8-ton truck is very popular due to its big load size and the long distance it can cover – in fact, it even has space for a small mattress where the driver can sleep on a long-haul trip.
#3 It offers easy loading and off-loading options
It seems contradictory but believe us when we say: A bigger truck can be easier to load. One configuration that we love is the tail lift, which is ideal for lifting heavy cargo with few hands. And let’s not forget the crane truck! Fitted with a 5-ton crane, this truck means business and is ideal for light post installations, and transporting pipes and construction equipment.
Don’t believe us? Here’s how one of our clients puts the 8-ton truck to great use!
One of our clients in the meat industry requires large fridge trucks to transport carcasses from their abattoir to a cold store, and from their cold store to restaurants or shops in different areas. Our 8-ton refrigerated trucks have space for carcasses to be hooked, so they can hang properly. The temperatures are perfectly controlled to ensure that the meat stays fresh, without freezing it.
Yes, we think it’s time to add an 8-ton truck to your fleet. Contact us today for a customised quote. Alternatively, if you’re interested in short-term rental information, download our brochure, to learn more about the other trucks and options available in our fleet.
