That’s a bold statement, but the numbers tell the truth.
Solid waste haulers currently utilizing heavy duty grapple trucks with large bodies to remove roll off waste from containers rather than hauling each one individually report:
- 100-120 yards of loose roll-off trash per load (50-yard body)
- 400-600 yards of roll-off waste collected per day
- A 35% increase in revenue per truck when compared to traditional roll-off waste collection methods
- Reduced labor cost
- Reduced fuel cost
Introducing The Petersen AL-2 Atlas, a grapple loader purpose built for roll-off and C&D waste collection.
We applied over 60 years of experience building the best grapples in the world and collaborated with client partners to develop a loader built to withstand the demands of harsh C&D and roll-off waste collection. The AL-2 is equipped with over 9,000 pounds of maximum lifting capacity, a reach of up to 27 feet and 360 degrees of continuous rotation. Our all-new C&D grapple bucket was engineered to efficiently remove waste from roll-off containers and deliver industry leading “bite” force for maximum load compaction. Pair that with a Petersen Hardox body and you have a winning combination.
