Different Types of Construction Vehicles<\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Construction businesses use a wide range of vehicles, and the right configuration depends on the job. A contractor transporting lumber has different needs from a paving company hauling aggregate or a utility crew carrying specialized tools. Here are several common types of construction vehicles and the equipment that can make them more useful.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Dump Trucks<\/span> <\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A dump body can be a practical option for businesses that regularly move loose materials. Depending on the job, a company may need a heavy-duty truck with a specialized dump body or a larger dedicated dump truck.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Utility and Service Body Trucks<\/span> <\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Service bodies can include lockable storage compartments, work surfaces, and mounting points for additional equipment. Some configurations also support generators, air compressors, and other job-specific tools.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Cargo Vans and Cutaway Vehicles<\/span> <\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Ford Transit Cargo Van offers a flexible option for businesses that need enclosed storage and room for equipment. Cutaway models, including the Ford E-Series Cutaway, can support specialized bodies designed for particular commercial applications.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Flatbed Trucks<\/span> <\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Flatbed trucks have open cargo platforms instead of enclosed beds. Their design makes it easier to load bulky materials, lumber, pipes, pallets, and certain types of equipment.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contractors may choose a flatbed for transporting materials that don’t fit easily inside a standard pickup bed. Tie-down points and appropriate loading equipment help secure cargo during transportation.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Chassis Cab Trucks<\/span> <\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A chassis cab truck provides a cab and frame to accommodate a separately installed body. This setup gives businesses more flexibility than a conventional pickup bed.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ford Super Duty chassis cab models, including the F-350, F-450, F-550, and F-600, offer starting points for a variety of commercial configurations. Depending on the model and upfit, businesses can create dump trucks, service trucks, flatbeds, and other specialized work vehicles.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Common Construction Truck Beds and Equipment<\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Choosing a truck is only part of the process. The bed or body determines how you can store, transport, and unload materials.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
