Specialty Utility Trucks
Equip One Truck for the Utility Work Your Crew Handles Every Day.
Specialty Utility Trucks brings grapple trucks, shoring boxes, mechanics trucks, hook lifts, crane bodies, aerial lifts, and hydraulics into one place for municipal and utility crews.
Sound Familiar?
- Single-purpose trucks that sit when the season or assignment changes
- Roadside repairs that require one truck for lifting and another for tools and parts
- Street lights, traffic signals, banners, and tree lines that crews cannot reach from the ground
- Utility bodies and hydraulic systems that must be matched to the chassis and daily workload
Equipment That Delivers
- Hook lift systems that let one chassis change bodies as the job changes
- Crane and mechanic bodies that combine lifting capacity with tool and parts storage
- Truck-mounted aerial lifts configured for public works, electric, signage, and tree-care work
- Integrated hydraulic systems sized for the functions the finished truck needs to run
BEC can help spec the truck for the job and support the equipment through its Midwest service centers.

Hook Lifts, Crane Bodies & Aerial Lifts
3 products from 3 brands

Hook Lift Systems
Add a Stellar hook lift to your plow truck and turn one chassis into a year-round utility truck. Drop the snow body in spring, swap in a dump body for summer, mount a flatbed for fall. Same chassis, three jobs. Eliminates the dedicated winter-only truck that sits idle eight months a year.

Cranes and Mechanic Bodies
Truck-mounted cranes and mechanic-body packages built for the two jobs municipal yards hire them for most often: fleet departments maintaining trucks on the road, and water departments pulling pumps out of lift stations. Compact enough for a service truck, capable enough for full-weight pump lifts and tire changes.

Aerial Lifts
Truck-mounted aerial lifts built for the work municipal infrastructure crews do every week: maintaining street lights, trimming trees, and putting up banners and holiday decorations on poles and overhead spans. Full range of working heights with the attachment options most often spec'd by Public Works and Electric departments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What equipment is included in Specialty Utility Trucks?
This category includes grapple trucks, shoring boxes, mechanics trucks, hook lifts, crane bodies, aerial lifts, and hydraulics. Current for-sale inventory appears below. Contact BEC for configuration and availability help.
What is a hook lift?
A hook lift is a hydraulic system mounted on a truck chassis that picks up and drops off interchangeable bodies on compatible frames. It lets the same chassis change between bodies such as dump, flatbed, water tank, and seasonal equipment.
What is a mechanic body?
A mechanic body combines a truck-mounted crane with tool and parts storage on one service-truck chassis. Fleet and water departments use these trucks for roadside repairs, equipment handling, and lift-station pump work.
What work can a truck-mounted aerial lift handle?
Truck-mounted aerial lifts support street-light and traffic-signal service, banner and seasonal-decoration installation, and tree trimming along rights of way. The lift and chassis must be sized for the required working height, reach, platform capacity, and duty cycle.
