Here’s an inside look at a DS-120sp completed in raw steel and sitting on the truck it’s about to be installed onto.

Next stop: a thorough wash and abrasive blast to prepare it for paint—then it’ll return ready for final installation and finishing.

Built tough from the ground up.

No shortcuts. Just a finish built to last.

Every West-Trans loader is thoroughly degreased before being abrasive blasted, ensuring the surface is properly prepared before painting begins.

From there, it receives a coat of primer followed by two coats of high-gloss finish in the customer’s choice of colour. Each body is painted electrostatically, helping the paint reach edges, recesses and other hard-to-access areas for consistent, comprehensive coverage.

It’s a meticulous process which aims to deliver a durable, professional finish that stands up to demanding work and harsh Australian conditions, all while keeping your equipment looking sharp for years to come.

TWO CORNERSTONES OF A SERIOUS WASTE FLEET.

The MXS-150 - whether you’re moving a large skip or collecting multiple smaller bins, it gives operators the flexibility to get more done on every run.

The HL-22A - built for the big jobs, providing the strength and capability needed to efficiently handle large hook lift bins.

Different equipment. Different applications. Together, they give waste fleets the flexibility to tackle a huge range of jobs.

Built Tough in Australia.

5 reasons every growing fleet should consider a dog trailer:

1. Increase payload capacity - A hook lift dog trailer allows you to carry significantly more material in a single trip, improving productivity and reducing transport costs.

2. Maximise truck utilisation - Pairing a dog trailer with your hook lift truck gives you greater flexibility to cart multiple bins or larger loads without adding another truck to the fleet.

3. Reduce operating costs - More payload per trip means fewer trips, less fuel consumption per tonne moved, and better overall fleet efficiency.

4. Expand your service capability - Whether you’re in waste, recycling, construction, demolition or transport, a hook lift dog trailer helps you take on larger jobs and service more customers.

5. Built for Australian conditions - West-Trans hook lift dog trailers are Australian made and designed for durability, reliability and long-term performance in demanding fleet operations.
