Roll Off Trucks

Roll Off Truck Sales

Roll off trucks are heavy lifters, ideal for moving materials to and away from job sites. In one work day, roll off trucks can haul multiple loads containing tons of waste, scrap, metal, dirt, sawdust, equipment and more. Check our the latest inventory here.

These trucks also make it easy to attend to multiple jobs as drivers gather and leave containers in different locations throughout the day. They are an excellent option for efficiently moving items from place to place, whether that’s down the street or across state lines. If you want to increase business productivity and organization, a roll off truck may be the perfect solution.

 

Frequently Asked Questions About Roll Off Trucks

What is a roll off truck?

A roll off truck, sometimes called a tilt frame, is a vehicular tool used on different types of job sites, usually for hauling materials in open-top roll off containers. Roll off trucks are built to roll and tilt these containers to get them on and off the truck frame. These trucks come in different sizes, each engineered to fit specific container types depending on your application. 

Roll off trucks are commonly found on construction sites and in manufacturing plants where they are used for hauling away scrap materials like trash, steel and shingles. However, their use isn’t  limited to one industry. Landscapers use roll off containers for hauling dirt, brush and other items. Even horse stables use roll off trucks to transport sawdust and hay. 

On many job sites, businesses are obligated to have refuse containers. With containers readily available, trash and debris end up contained in waste disposal sites rather than on the ground or blowing through the surrounding area. Roll off trucks are used to haul these containers from place to place.

Note that hook lift trucks also fall under the umbrella of roll off trucks. Hook lift trucks are like roll off trucks in that they allow for different applications, but they work using fitted hydraulic hook lift systems. 

 

How do roll off trucks work?

Roll off trucks work through a series of wheels working with a tilt frame that make it simple to roll the container in place on and off the back of the truck. A hoist will tilt the container downward to roll right off the back of the truck, or upward to maneuver it back onto the truck bed.

You can see an example of a roll off truck in action in this video where our staff demonstrates the proper way to operate a Stinger Tail Roll Off Truck.

 

How much weight can a roll off truck carry?

The amount of weight a roll off truck can carry depends on engineering design of the truck and container as well as legal limits within state lines. At Premier, our roll off trucks offer 75,000 lbs. of lifting capacity, which generally allows for hauling up to 19-20 tons.
