Timber trucks are heavy-duty vehicles designed to haul logs from forest sites to mills or transfer yards. They come in various configurations — straight trucks, truck-trailer combos, and specialized log trucks with bunks, removable stakes, cranes, or grapple loaders — built to handle long, heavy loads and rough access roads. Key considerations include payload capacity, axle layout, frame strength, winches, and crane specifications for safe loading and efficient unloading.
Check frame straightness, bunk and stake condition, axle and suspension wear, drivetrain hours, crane or loader operation, hydraulic leaks, and service records for heavy-use components.
Use a heavy equipment carrier with a proper weight rating, secure removable stakes and crane booms, comply with overwidth/overweight permits, and plan for pickup/drop-off at locations with adequate turning radius.
Regularly service hydraulics and crane seals, inspect and grease bunk pivots, maintain brakes and tires to handle heavy loads, treat corrosion on the frame, and follow manufacturer intervals for engine and drivetrain services.
