leach rear loaders

• What is the Leach 2R-III rear loader designed for? The Leach 2R-III is a versatile and durable rear loader garbage truck built for a wide range of applications, including residential, commercial, and demolition waste collection, as well as recycling routes.

• What makes the 2R-III's design unique? The truck's design is engineered for both strength and efficiency. It features a unique trough design for added structural integrity and an angled telescopic ejector cylinder that protects it from debris while directing compaction forces toward the front of the body.

• What are its primary applications? This refuse truck is suitable for a wide range of applications, including commercial and residential waste collection, as well as recycling routes.

• How does this truck achieve high compaction? The 2R-III is a high-performance refuse truck, offering an industry-leading compaction of up to 1000 lbs/yd³. Its large hopper and powerful hydraulic cylinders allow operators to compact more waste with fewer cycles, increasing productivity on every route.

• What materials are used to ensure durability? This waste collection vehicle is built with a thick body floor (5/16” in the center and ¼” on the sides) and features chromium carbide slide shoes within its rails. Chromium carbide is a highly durable material that outperforms AR450 steel, ensuring a longer service life and reduced maintenance.

• What body sizes are available for this model? The Leach 2R-III is available in various body sizes, ranging from 20 to 32 cubic yards, to accommodate different route needs and payload requirements.

• Are there alternative energy options available? Yes, this rear loader can be integrated with alternative energy sources, including a proprietary CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) system or a Battery-Electric chassis, to help fleets meet sustainability goals.

• What is the Leach Alpha-III rear loader designed for? The Leach Alpha-III is a high-performance rear loader garbage truck known for its strength and reliability. It is a popular choice for both manual residential and commercial recycling applications.

• What are its key benefits? This refuse truck is a favorite among operators due to its standard 3.0 yd³ hopper, a low load sill for easy access, and a fast packing cycle of as little as 19 seconds, which increases route efficiency.

• What is the "Diamond Force Compaction" design? The patented Diamond Force Compaction design on the push-out panel ensures waste is evenly distributed inside the body, minimizing voids and achieving a high compaction rating of at least 1,000 lbs/yd³.

• What features improve durability and reduce maintenance? The truck's body and tailgate surfaces are grit blasted, primed, and painted before assembly to prevent corrosion. Additionally, the Alpha-III is the only rear loader equipped with interchangeable packer and carrier cylinders, which helps fleets reduce their parts inventory and simplify maintenance.

• What is a "sump" and how is it designed on this truck? The unique single-piece floor trough forms a natural sump capable of holding up to 300 gallons of liquid. This design helps to contain liquids, preventing spillage and keeping the truck cleaner during operation.

• What body sizes are available for this model? The Leach Alpha-III is available in a range of body sizes, from 14 to 32 cubic yards, allowing it to be configured for various applications and payload requirements.

• Are there alternative energy options available? Yes, this rear loader can be integrated with alternative energy options like a proprietary CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) system or a Battery-Electric chassis to support sustainable fleet operations.

• What is the Leach Split Rear Loader designed for? The Leach Split Rear Loader is a specialized rear loader garbage truck designed for efficient dual-stream collection of separate materials, such as refuse and recyclables, or organics and solid waste.

• How does its split-body design work? This unique refuse truck features a split body with fully independent tailgates and ejector panels. It can be configured in a 50/50, 40/60, or 60/40 split to accommodate different waste streams and maximize payloads.

• How does the truck maintain productivity with dual streams? Despite its dual-stream capability, the Split Rear loader maintains high productivity with fast and powerful hydraulics, a quick 20-second packing cycle, and a high compaction rating of up to 1000 lbs/yd³.

• What features improve operator efficiency and safety? The truck has a low load sill height of 6” below the frame for easy loading. The controls can be located on the curbside or in a dual configuration on both sides of the tailgate for added convenience and safety during operation.

• What body sizes are available for this model? The Leach Split Rear loader is available in a 32-cubic-yard body size.

• Are there alternative energy options available? Yes, this rear loader can be powered by alternative energy sources, including a proprietary CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) system or a Battery-Electric chassis, to support a cleaner, more sustainable fleet.

• What is the Leach Mini Rear Loader designed for? The Leach Mini Rear Loader is a compact and highly maneuverable garbage truck specifically designed to operate in tight spaces and narrow streets that larger trucks cannot access. It is a perfect waste management solution for manual residential and commercial collection, as well as recycling routes in confined areas.

• How does its size benefit operations? Its compact size and optimized weight distribution improve fuel efficiency and increase legal payload, allowing for greater productivity and reduced operational costs.

Key Features & Technology

• How does its hydraulic system enhance efficiency? The Mini Rear features an efficient hydraulic system that allows for faster packing and dumping cycles, which reduces overall route time.

• What safety features does the truck have? Operator safety is a key priority. The truck is designed with smart interlocks that prevent the hydraulic pump from activating unless the controls are in a neutral position, ensuring safe operation.

• What features simplify maintenance? The loader is built for durability with a reinforced body and a two-piece tailgate, which makes maintenance easier.

• Are there alternative energy options available? Yes, the Leach Mini Rear Loader is EV-ready, with seamless integration capabilities for a Battery-Electric chassis to help fleets transition to cleaner energy.
