* New Bin Scale for Small Container Carriers, Bin Carriers and Dumpster Stinger Trucks Delivers Profitable Bottom Line *

AccuLoad Model LTWS-1 Patriot Model Vehicle Scale Converts Your Small Bin Trucks to Profitable “Scales-on-Wheels”. Weigh your small container, bin and dumpster loads while your truck is at the pick-up location and add real dollars to your gross operating profit.

The reliable and proven AccuLoad Model LTWS-1 Patriot Model electronic container-bin-dumpster truck scale can be installed on any hydraulic-lift container carrier. The weight indicator is usually located conveniently in the cab. (*Ask us, if you want to add our rear fork lifting equipment to your small trucks!)

Improve your container and bin pickup service profit by accurately knowing pickup costs and corresponding landfill or transfer station fees. AccuLoad Model LTWS-1 Patriot Model vehicle scales instantly provide container content weight, allowing your staff to immediately and accurately analyze your route service costs for an improved and more profitable bottom line. This sturdy Model LTWS-1 Patriot Model Scale can be used to check-weigh on demand or to weigh every bin and dumpster on your route, providing a record of weight over a period of time to assure a profitable contract.

Also available is an optional ticket printer which can print Time/Date and Net Weight for your records.

Investment pay-back is reasonably quick because container content weight can be evaluated immediately at the pickup site for weight versus volume, giving your driver the immediate option to adjust the collection rate or to decline an unprofitable pickup.
