Used Mercedes Arocs Tipper at TruckLocator

From large contemporary Arocs tippers with Euro VI engines and the latest hydraulic lift and stabilisation systems to older compact Axor trucks weighing 18 tonnes or and Atego at less, Mercedes-Benz has built a comprehensive range of these trucks over the years. And used models can be more affordable than you might think, with well-maintained examples representing the best possible value in most cases.

Atego Tippers - Flexibile and Comfortable

Mercedes-Benz trucks with smaller tipper bodies tend to form part of the Atego range, which has been revised several times since its inception. Since tippers tend to be used on construction sites, the Atego tippers comes with cabs that are specifically outfitted to cater to operating in this environment. They are comfortable and well equipped, as you would imagine, but also manage to feature carefully chosen dimensions which make them better suited to squeezing through narrow entrances and manoeuvring over obstacle-strewn sites. 

Standard day cabs are common for tipper trucks from this firm, but there are crew and sleeper cabs for those that require such features. Because technology has altered between generations of this and other Mercedes-Benz tipper truck models, checking the specification of used units closely is essential to avoid disappointment.

Bigger tippers with operating weights of 32 tonnes or more are found in the Actros range, with highly efficient and compliant engines found under the skin and benefits such as reversing cameras, steel body components and alloy fuel tanks all common on these units. Some of the tippers from Mercedes-Benz come with built-in weighing mechanisms that make it easier to work out how much material has been added to the load space so as to avoid overfilling it.

Traditional suspension is available alongside air and hydraulic systems, depending on the model. There are also variants which come with integrated grabbers to help with the loading process, meaning that a separate excavator is not necessarily required to allow the tipper to be deployed efficiently. If you want to reduce machinery and maintenance costs, then this might be an important consideration when searching for a used model.

The type of tipper body is another element that requires careful thought before buying a used Mercedes-Benz truck. Solid steel bodies with a simple rear tailgate and hydraulic tipping mechanism are easy to find. You can also pick up dropside tippers from this manufacturer, with the smaller models favouring this configuration for the sake of convenience as well as safety.

Whatever type of Mercedes-Benz tipper truck you select, give used examples an inspection to make sure that your money is being spent on a worthwhile model which will not be in need of any serious servicing in the immediate future. Road miles mean less with tippers because the wear and tear will typically have been received as a result of the nature of the terrain.
