Wheel Loaders
No matter what you have to move, we have what you need to move dirt, sand, gravel, or just about anything else. Wheel loaders are tractor vehicles used to scoop up and move asphalt, debris, dirt, feed, gravel, sand, or other loose material, or load it into or unto dump trucks, hoppers, rail-cars or other vehicles or machinery. Like their tracked counterparts, wheel loaders consist of a front-mounted, square bucket fastened to the end of two booms used to pick up loose material, such as dirt, sand or gravel.
The loader can either be removable or permanently attached; if removable, it can be replaced with other attachments, such as container-lifting forks or other tools that allow it to perform other tasks such as dozing and scraping.
Wheel loaders also can be used for digging, laying pipe, clearing brush and other uses. Wheel loaders are manoeuvrable, controlled by articulated steering, using a hydraulically actuated pivot point exactly between the front and rear axles. With a wide variety of compatible attachments and tools, wheel loaders are flexible machines able to perform a wide range of tasks for several industries.

Bulldozer
Bulldozer, also called Dozer, powerful machine for pushing earth or rocks, used in road building, farming, construction, and wrecking; it consists of a heavy, broad steel blade or plate mounted on the front of a tractor. Bulldozers are ideal for traversing dense and irregular terrain since the tracks give it great traction. Larger crawlers have rippers that assist with crushing and clearing dense terrain. Renting a bulldozer for your project can improve the efficiency of your project if the right one is selected.
Bulldozer types can be further classified based on the blades used. Different blades serve different purposes, can handle different types of materials and can handle a range of load weights. The blade is the heavy metal plate located at the front of the bulldozer that is used to push and dig through materials. The most common types of blades are listed below.
Straight Blades (S-Blade)
This blade attaches to the arm in the lower back corners of the blade.
Universal Blade (U-Blade)
Like S-Blades, they also attach to the lower back corners of the blade and best used with soft to medium density soil. Some of the best tasks for u-blades include ditching, hauling, pushing and crowning.
S-U (Semi-U) Blade
This blade combines features from the S-blade and the U-blade to give it stronger penetration and better overall versatility. This blade attaches in the lower back of the blade using angled stabilizing braces and either one or two hydraulic tilt cylinders.
Angle Blade
Its location is useful for moving debris to the side since it can angle close to 30 degrees left or right. Some of the best tasks for angle blades include stumping, shaping, stripping and ditching.
Power-Angle-Tilt (PAT) Blade
The driver controls the blade from the cabin and can angle, tilt, and lift in almost all directions. Like angle blades, these blades are mounted in the centre of the panel. Some of the best tasks for PAT blades include scraping, land clearing, levelling, backfilling and grading.
