Take a look below at some FAQs regarding Ramp Equipped Vehicles, any questions not answered here feel free to get in touch.
A ramp equipped vehicle is a lorry with loading ramps at the back, so wheeled and tracked machinery can be driven straight on and off. Because there’s no lifting involved, you don’t need a forklift or crane at either end of the journey. They’re sometimes called plant lorries or beavertails.
We utilise a range of LCVs within our fleet, to help us transport loads over harsh terrain.
No. The machinery drives up the ramps onto the vehicle and back down again at the other end, so there’s no need for a forklift, crane or loading bay. You just need enough level space behind the vehicle for the ramps to come down and the machine to drive off safely.
