Bucket Trucks

Each and every bucket truck has a boom assembly mounted to a regular truck, which enables these vehicles to move fast on normal roads. Also, this increases the area that this equipment could service efficiently. This is especially essential for power companies. Like for instance, many of these companies utilize cherry pickers to elevate workers up so they can work on and reach transmission lines. The buckets need to be inspected regularly and insulated properly as they are working close to possible shock hazards.
