Buy Used Skip Loader Trucks

Understanding what a skip loader truck is requires you to know the difference between skip loaders and hookloaders. The main distinction lies in a skip loader trucks use of hydraulic arms to lift and load skips onto the vehicle bed which enables quick and frequent loading and unloading activities. Hookloaders meanwhile utilise a hydraulic hook system, often designed by one of Boughton or Hyva, which is better suited to hauling large containers which require a more secure transportation.

In industries that require heavy lifting and material transportation, particularly waste or recycled materials, skip loaders are often the go-to vehicle deployed. From construction sites to municipal waste collection, these versatile machines offer the strength and durability necessary to handle these sorts of demanding tasks.

The size of the actual skip you’ll be able to haul depends on the size of the skip loader you use. On average a small builder’s skip is around 1 to 1.4 ton in weight, whilst larger 12-yard maxi skips can accommodate anywhere between 3 and 3.25 ton in weight. This means you’ll need to know how large the skip you are looking to transport is, before you can work out whether you need a smaller-sized or a more sizeable skip loader.
