Hooklift systems maximize the use of a single chassis by allowing operators to load, unload, and dump containers or bodies without leaving the cab—often in under one minute. This efficiency allows containers to be staged at job sites while the truck is reassigned to other tasks, improving productivity and fleet utilization.
Designed for versatility, hooklift systems can handle a wide range of containers and skid-mounted equipment. Skids can be hoisted onto the chassis, transported to the jobsite, and offloaded—freeing the truck for its next application.
Each hooklift system is engineered for a specific container length and payload capacity, with lifting capacity selected based on volume and weight requirements. Proper chassis GVWR and wheelbase are critical to safely supporting the hooklift system and its intended applications.
Custom Quick-Change Bodies
Hooklift systems can be paired with a variety of interchangeable bodies, including:
- Open and enclosed containers
- Recycling containers
- Flatbed bodies
- Dump bodies (standard or heated)
- Water tanks and spray systems
- Salt spreaders (V-box or tailgate)
- Cranes (permanent or skid-mounted)
- Hydroseeders and sprayers
