Mercedes make chassi suitable for tipping work right across theri range from the Unimog to the Arocs and the Atego to the Econic. That’s why there’s always a solid choice of used Mercedes tipper trucks for sale at Truckpages. The bulk of the tipper trucks that are available are 32-tonne 8 wheel Mercedes Arocs tippers – this is the ruggedised version of the Actros that has been designed for use in on and off road environments with higher ground clearances and added protection. Lighter down the weight range, Mercedes tippers become less common. A higher unladen weight than some of the competition and relative cost makes the Atego a less popular choice than an Iveco Eurocargo or DAF LF, for example. Mercedes have been pushing the benefits of their low-entry Econic for urban tipping work. Excellent five star direct vision and ease of access make the truck highly suitable – if the initial purchase price can be overcome.
When most businesses buy their first ever tractor unit, they reasonably might be expected to opt for a fairly standard model or perhaps even a second-hand truck. Cornish operator Brunel chose an alternative route in ordering the top-of-the-range 16-litre 625hp Actros 1 – one of a limited edition run of just 400 and just 35 in the UK. Still, the family waste and recycling business that also owns Plymouth Albion Rugby Club is keen to invest their money in top quality. In addition to the Actros came another new vehicle - an eight-wheeled Arocs tipper, which had been pre-bodied for…
Nobody wants to wait months for a truck, so being able to get a brand new, bodied tipper in such a short time frame was important to Barrachander Quarry boss Calum McCrae. Of course, the trucks have to perform as well. Since McCrae has been so impressed with the reliability of the 8x4 Mercedes-Benz Arocs he set to work three years ago he has just commissioned another two from Western Commercial. The Dealer’s customer-focused back-up was also crucial in convincing the Argyll-based operator to add more Mercedes-Benz tippers to a fleet in which a Swedish brand previously held sway. The…
It’s a great-looking truck. Blinged to the eyeballs, the Mercedes Arocs 3248 should turn heads wherever it goes. Jason Ward, owner of H&C Haulage must like his son in law, Rhys Ford. Not only has he provided work for the 29-year old in the family business, but also has given him the ‘Muck Monkey’ to drive. Rhys and Carly Ford, with their children Lewis, aged five, and Evie, two Standing out from the plain white trucks on the fleet, Rhys’s 8x4 Arocs was supplied to the Swindon-based aggregates and muckaway specialist by local Dealer Rygor Commercials and is the subject…
A dairy believes they have found an ideal use for the talented Unimog. It replaces a high-speed tractor and can travel up to 250 miles a day towing milk tankers. Why not buy a ‘normal’ truck? Firstly, everyone wants a Unimog – you can turn it from left hand drive to right hand drive at the flick of a switch, for example. How cool is that? Secondly, the Unimog has other work to do around the 250 acre farm. There are hedges that need trimming, trailers that need moving across fields and operating the pumping equipment for the milk. Hard…
