What to look for when buying a transport truck?

Buying a new cargo truck requires care and consideration. Think about what you will be moving. Do you need special features, like a crane for moving bags of sand or an open flatbed that can haul irregularly sized goods? Different vehicles are needed for different jobs, and knowing what to look for – whether it’s an arching bed or a heavy-duty crane – makes buying a new commercial truck easier. Learn about the features found in different vehicles, and you will be ready to purchase a new transport truck with confidence.

Crane trucks

Crane trucks make light work of heavy lifting. Since they can be quickly moved from one site to another, they are ideal for handling multiple projects, making crane trucks a smart choice when flexibility is required. No construction site is complete without one of these heavy-equipment trucks. In addition to moving sand, iron and stone, they are also good for loading recycling material, including scrap metal and compacted wastepaper. Brands offered by Tradus sellers include Scania, Volvo, DAF, Renault, MAN and Mercedes-Benz.

Box trucks

Sturdy box trucks are designed to haul heavy freight so loads can be moved quickly and carefully, ensuring your cargo is safely transported. With the range in volumes and sizes there is always a box that matches the cargo you need to haul. Tradus has an expansive selection of box trucks and offers all the renowned and trusted brands, including Mercedes-Benz, MAN, Iveco, Scania, DAF and Volvo.

Flatbed trucks

A flatbed truck is the perfect vehicle for moving irregularly sized loads Since flatbed trucks don’t have a roof or fixed sides and freight is simply strapped down, they offer considerable flexibility and room to maneuver. A model with an arching bed provides strength without the bulk, making it a sound choice for heavy loads. Tradus carries top brands such as Iveco, Renault, MAN, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo, so finding something designed for serious weight carrying is made easy.
