Log delivery vehicle

[Logger94]

What kind of vehicles do you guys use to deliver your logs?

 

I'm trying to find out what would be best

 

Thanks

We deliver bulk bags only .A discovery TD5 and trailer , or a Mitsubishi 3.5 ton tipper . The jeep and trailer is majorly unmanouverable in housing estates wheras the mitsubishi is the very good in yhis respect but thirsty . To my mind a VW transporter 1.9tdi pickup would be perfect and easy on diesel too .

Ok I haven't got a great amount of money so was maybe thinking of maybe a small trailer on the back of my car for now but I would love a pick up tipper

Get a pick up - and get a Loadhandler

[Logger94]

What are those load handlers like ? I've never heard of them lol

Small trailer is the way forward for you, starting out. Literally half the diesel and running costs of a pickup/transit. If you're only doing 1-2 cube at a time, you need nothing bigger.

 

How do I know? I've run both. As soon as I get a small van for the expanding gardening team, that will be doing log runs with a 750kg trailer on the back.

Great bits of kit, I can unload my hilux full of logs in around 20 seconds.

Do you do a load handler that would fit say a 14ft ifor Williams flat.
