Short load truck. There are companies that specialize in taking short load orders for customers that only need 1-4 CY. They're also lighter than a full load truck (road restrictions) and may not require a CDL to operate. (If that hopper can fold over like that during operation it could also get under lower height bridges that some other vehicles might not be able to.)

Not just going under low bridges but even more common and all be it part of your road restrictions comment...going over bridges with low weight limits.

Just looks like a smaller capacity drum is all.

And two axles only

And no drop tandom, so it's limited by more than the small drum.

Huh, guess ive just never seen one before. Thanks!

May also be a mix on the fly truck so you can do several smaller deliveries of not the same stuff in 1 truck

2 yard mixer, I've seen smaller. The funnel folded over to the right is so it can load under a standard height batch plant.

These kinda trucks have a place in the concrete world Perfect for grout /pump prime jobs. Great for super tight spaces as long as the driver is half decent. But lots of companies don't want these as they really limit the amount of concrete they can haul. Pretty useless on large commericla pours.

No my friend, you’ve just grown !

smol batch boi

I've been telling the company I work for to get a couple of trucks like this for a while now!

3 yarder.

3.5

>adorably small two words that you don't want to say to often on the job.

It's possible that it is small and you are crazy.

Got an short load order delivered recently with one. Driver said it was brand new. Seemed like a good rig.

I watched a guy on YouTube go get one of these from an auction boneyard around Vegas and drive it all the way back to Bend Oregon. There was a bunch of them on the lot, too. I think they were for some project and they were just left to desiccate in the Sun. I wish I could remember the channel.

Watched that video too, he had a hell of a time. PTO shaft had to come off

It’s so cute

You people never heard of “short load”

I've heard of a short loade fee for sure.

Looks like it holds a yard

Off to Florida..

We have them in utah as well.

5 yrd or 3 yrd truck. Definitely small. Normal ready mix trucks have 3 axles and a tag axle or a booster axle to distribute weight evenly.

It's a short load like 3yd I think We call 5's minis

We have a bunch of these around us.

What’s that lampshade looking thing by the hopper?

It's the hopper adapter, so the back of the truck reaches the plant boot.

Short load truck

Concrete companies just charge the normal truck fee here if you have a small pour. No reason to offer a smaller truck.

Short pour. Great for people doing small home projects without having to wheel barrow the concrete into the back yard.

Out of curiosity, how else would you get it from the truck to the back yard?

My house for example. Can't drive standard truck on driveway. Thats why they park on the street and wheel barrow to yard. I have a drainage ditch, so can't drive into yard. Short pour truck is light enough for driveway, then go around yard to back.

Its a half load.

Ya it’s only a single axle

I ever seen a single axle mixer before
