Spray and Pest Trucks
If you own a lawn care company or have a roadside landscape or tree care service, chances are, you need a customized truck for your spraying equipment. At MJ TruckNation, we are here to help find the Spray Truck that perfectly fits your individual requirements.
What is a Spray Truck and Who Needs One?
Spray Trucks, also known as Herbicide Spray Trucks or Landscape Spray Trucks, are used for transporting and applying herbicides, liquid fertilizers, and other bulk chemicals. Spray Trucks are used for services that provide such things as fertilizer applications, weed control, tree and lawn care, roadside weed control and ground care, and more.
Spray Trucks are sometimes used to distribute water too. The liquids are housed in tanks that are in the back of the truck. Sprayers enable large areas to be covered and are available in various shapes and sizes to accommodate special custom needs.
The typical types of trucks used for spraying are those with truck beds and boom trucks. It’s imperative that the truck be able to carry the weight of the liquids. It’s also wise for the truck not to be oversized for the job so money isn’t wasted on fuel.
It’s important that the truck has enough power and maneuverability to get the job done. Weeding and landscape jobs often call for getting in and out of tight spots. You sure don’t want to get stuck.
Determining the Features the Fit Your Needs
What specific service does your business provide? That’s always a good starting place when figuring out what type of truck you’ll need and the features that you’ll want to go along with it.
Do you need a traditional Spray Truck or one for construction purposes too? How far up do you need to be able to access? What kind of ground do you need to cover and how far do you need a hose to reach? Do you need pallet storage? Would pull-out drawers on the truck benefit you? All of these things factor into your unique requirements.
