When dealing with tenders and the prospects of investing into your current fleet, there is a compulsory need to plan and evaluate the procurement of a new truck and it's desired capabilities. Even without other obligations, truck shopping can be difficult and time consuming. At DEL we understand and realize the pain staking process of selecting a new vehicle with the appropriate upfitting package. We embrace this challenge and do our best to lend our expertise and knowledge of truck body & equipment.
Vocational trucks are usually required to complete a task, or a group of specific tasks, so before you can determine which chassis to buy, you need to have a clear idea of what you expect this new vehicle to accomplish. Here are things you should consider:
What type of body or equipment is needed
The necessities for capacity and performance of the body/equipment
The payload (dimensions and weight)
Performance requirements in the truck chassis.
Outside limitations or conditions on the unit or work to be performed, such as regulatory requirements or workplace environment.
At DEL , we work with the dealer and the end user to ensure that the truck body equipment we spec out and supply will do the work that it is required. We pride ourselves in delivering products that are tailored to the specific needs of the customer. We lend over 65 years of expertise to design and provide up fitting options that make the end user more successful.
DEL and it's dealers will not only work closely with each other to make sure the chassis ordered has the required options and configurations to suit the body (i.e. GVWR, CA/CT, O/H, Clear Frame Rail etc.), but we will also work hand in hand with the end user to ensure that the upfitting package delivers value and function that is supported by a dedicated after sale service.
When it comes to an investment in your vocational fleet DEL is only one quick call away.
Need Extra Storage?
Most of the time cargo space on your dump or flatbed is the only option seen when it comes to storing tools and materials. What is often overlooked is under the body. Most vocational truck owners need to store and organize some smaller items, especially tools, chains, straps, and other smaller equipment.
These trucks usually have a full bed for materials that they are hauling or equipment they are moving. That's where under body toolboxes come into play. In order to maximIze that space, under body toolboxes become a great option for extra storage. Operating that truck suddenly becomes more profitable and efficient because of the convenience of having extra protected storage for tools, materials and equipment.
To properly support under body toolboxes and their contents, DEL uses and recommends mounting them in a bracket mounting system that prevents the toolbox from shifting left and right. Under body toolboxes are excellent for secure storage space underneath the bed of your truck. DEL distributes and installs toolboxes available in different sizes, door options and material (steel,stainless steel, aluminum)
Call us today for more information on pricing, installation, and current stock. Be sure to take advantage of our current promotion on underbody toolboxes running from today until the second week of March.
