In the waste management, recycling, and construction industries, cable hoist trucks have been the preferred solution amongst many companies. The downside is that cable hoist trucks require the driver to manually connect the container to the truck before loading or unloading the dumpster, whereas hooklift trucks can easily load and unload items without the driver having to leave the cab. In recent years, hooklift trucks have become more popular due to their increased efficiency, and our team at Keystone Waste Solutions LLC is here to help you outfit your fleet with the equipment you need.
