On a construction site, it is essential to have a range of equipment that is useful for all types of activities. One of the most important machines for those working in the construction sector is the dumper.

There are many different types of site dumper today, but there are some basic characteristics that need to be considered before making the right choice. Let’s take a look at them in this in-depth study.

How to choose a site dumper: the 3 most important characteristics

What is a dumper and what is it used for? The function of a dumper is to move and transport material such as rubble, debris, soil and rubble. A dumper is a motorised wheelbarrow equipped with a container for the materials and a station where the driver stands.

When it comes to choose a site dumper, there are 3 important aspects to consider.

1. Versatility

Working on a construction site can be very tiring and complex if you don’t have the right equipment. Versatile machines that can adapt to different environments and the needs of their users are therefore essential.

The fact that the dumper comes with a large number of accessories and can be customised in a variety of configurations is therefore a very convenient factor to consider. This makes it easy and convenient to adapt it to work on the construction site or in agriculture, wherever you need it.

2. Manoeuvrability

The most manoeuvrable vehicles are the most useful on a construction site: it is important to choose a machine that can move easily even in reverse and that can steer without difficulty even on rough and uneven ground.

A site dumper that is easy to manoeuvre will also be more stable in its movements and precise in its work.

3. Safety

Finally, it is vital that the site dumper you choose is safe for the driver. Especially when working in difficult conditions, on steep and uneven terrain, workers need to be able to rely on machines that won’t put them in danger even during the most complex operations.

When making your choice, make sure that the dumper you want to buy has been developed according to the strict safety standards required by European directives.
