Choosing the Right Chassis

Across the Macpac body range, applications extend from 7.5t through to 26t chassis. The appropriate chassis depends on body, waste stream, required payload, collection environment and additional equipment.

Larger chassis generally provide greater potential for useful payload, while compact chassis can provide significant advantages in access and manoeuvrability. Actual payload depends on the complete vehicle specification.
