From construction sites to mine haul roads, a good tip truck is one of the hardest-working machines in any fleet. At Western Truck Sales, we stock a wide range of new and used tip trucks from multiple manufacturers — so whether you’re after a single truck or building out a fleet, we’ve got options to suit.
What Are Tip Trucks Used For?
Tip trucks (also called tipper trucks or dump trucks) are designed to carry loose bulk materials and unload them quickly by hydraulically tipping the tray. They’re a staple across industries that move large volumes of material day in, day out. Common uses include:
- Earthmoving & excavation — shifting soil, clay, and overburden on civil and construction projects
- Quarrying & mining — hauling rock, gravel, sand, and ore
- Landscaping & land clearing — removing green waste, topsoil, and fill
- Road construction & maintenance — delivering aggregate, asphalt, and road base
- Waste & recycling — transporting bulk waste materials from sites
Pulling Dog & Pig Trailers:
Many of the tip trucks in our stock are set up to pull dog or pig trailers, giving you significantly more payload capacity per run. It’s a cost-effective way to get more out of your existing prime mover — and a great option if you’re working on high-volume cartage jobs.
Custom Tip Bodies & Trays:
Need something built to spec? We work with Vintrans, our licensed body building contractors, to supply new and second-hand tip bodies and trays tailored to your exact requirements. Whether it’s a specific size, material (steel, alloy, or otherwise), or configuration, we can sort it out.
