How will you use your Petersen Industries Grapple Loader?
You never know what amazing and down right creative, ideas our customers come up with. How Will you use your Grapple Loader?
According to Alfred Hodge, Director of Public Works, the City uses their Lightning Loader® systems to tear down condemned drug houses. Using the Grapple Truck for this purpose allows employees to keep a further distance from the possible structural problems, chemicals and other unknown substances that could be present in these types of houses versus traditional methods of demolition.
After peeling off the roof with a TL3 Grapple Truck®, they reach in and remove the contents of the building. They complete the demolition by pulling off large portions of the walls and loading them into the body until the house is demolished down the the remaining slab.
