One lorry loader is listed for sale in the UAE today, from a single supplier in Dubai, on a Mercedes chassis. The supplier is not yet verified. With only one listing there is no typical price to give, so take the figure on the listing as the starting point.
A lorry loader is a truck fitted with its own crane so that it can load and unload itself. The crane sits behind the cab or at the rear of the body, and the deck carries the cargo. Site-services companies use it for pallets of blocks, rebar bundles, pipes and plant parts that would otherwise need a forklift or a crane on hire.
Weigh the crane's reach against its capacity, check how much payload remains on the deck once the crane is counted, and ask whether the crane has a current test certificate. Anyone who wants more choice can use Post an inquiry to reach suppliers with similar stock. Other lorries are collected under trucks for sale.
They are the same idea, a truck with a crane mounted on it. Hiab is a brand name that many people use for any such crane. A lorry loader listing may carry a different crane make, so check the model plate for lifting capacity and reach rather than relying on the label.
One is listed today, in Dubai, from a single supplier. Stock changes when sellers add or remove listings. Send a request describing the crane capacity and deck length you need, and suppliers with matching trucks can reply.
Run the crane through its full movement and watch for jerks or sinking under load. Check hydraulic hoses, cylinder seals and the crane base for cracks. Confirm the stabilisers extend and lock. Ask for the crane's latest inspection certificate along with the truck's registration card.
Two limits apply: what the crane can lift at a given reach, and what the truck can carry on its axles. The crane weighs several hundred kilograms, which reduces the payload. Ask the seller for the axle rating and the crane's load chart, then work out your heaviest regular load.
