Editor's Notes
September 16, 2020:
Similar to the design of a wheelbarrow, tilt trucks can be really efficient pieces of equipment if used correctly. By giving one person the ability to transport and dump out heavy loads, a relatively large job can be done quickly. Though they may be fairly expensive, their time-saving benefits could be worth the investment if you have the workload.
We've included a range of sizes to choose from, to make it a bit easier to choose the option best for your specific needs. For instance, the Rubbermaid FG130400BLA can hold up to 2.5 cubic yards of materials, making it a great choice for really big jobs. The smaller Bayhead Haul-All on the other hand, is a smaller, more compact model that would be a better choice for either smaller tasks, or work areas that are too tight for bulkier trucks.
If these tilt trucks are too bulky, maybe one of these basket trucks would be easier to handle. These soft-sided trucks are usually lighter than tilt trucks, and some models can even fold away for easy storage.
