The new Muck Truck moves all kinds of material over almost any terrain. With its Honda engine, 4-wheel drive and large tires, the dumper can climb over obstacles and up steep inclines, carrying a quarter-ton load twice as fast as a tracked machine at a fraction of the cost, according to the company. With three times the capacity of a standard wheelbarrow, the Muck Truck is built to be stable, but the center of gravity allows easy load dumping without the added expense of a powered dump mechanism.

The Muck Truck is designed to be as easy to steer when it is loaded as it is empty. With intuitive controls and four forward speeds plus one reverse, operators can work quickly and efficiently.

“In tight situations it is imperative to have complete control of the situation,” says Chris Boyle, president of The Muck Truck Co. “The slower speeds allow the operator to confidently select the appropriate speed for the conditions. Equally, the opportunity to move quickly around the workplace in a higher gear improves the cost effectiveness of the operation.”

At only 28 inches wide, the Muck Truck is able to go through standard doorways, making it useful for renovation projects and working in tight quarters. The dumper is designed for farming, gardening, building, remodeling, landscaping, golf course maintenance or any job that requires moving loads or materials from one place to another.

For simplicity and ease of use, the dumper features a safety “dead man” clutch so the machine stops instantly when the lever is released. The hand throttle provides precise control, and the ergonomic design ensures minimal operator fatigue.
