This Scania R440 is a used hook lift truck — sometimes referred to as a skip loader or hooklift — a type of heavy goods vehicle equipped with a hydraulic hook arm system that allows a single driver to load, transport, and deposit large open containers or skips without additional handling equipment. Hook lift trucks are widely used in waste management, construction logistics, bulk material transport, and municipal services. Scania is a Swedish manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for producing heavy-duty trucks and transport solutions for demanding commercial and industrial applications worldwide.
This 2013 example is located in Poland and is offered at €57,900. It is configured as a three-axle vehicle with a 6x2 drive arrangement, featuring a raised and steerable rear axle, and the entire chassis runs on air suspension, as does the cab. Power comes from a Euro 5 engine rated at 440 horsepower, running without AdBlue, paired with a 12-speed manual gearbox. The truck is fitted with an engine brake retarder for additional deceleration control. The gross vehicle weight is rated at 26,000 kg, with a payload capacity of 14,248 kg, and the trailer coupling is rated for 18 tonnes.
The hook lift equipment is an original Meiller RK 20.70 K unit, also from 2013, designed for use with the longest containers available. The wheelbase measures 4.7 metres, and the rear beam is extendable to accommodate varying container lengths. Operation is via an original Meiller wireless remote control. Polish UDT technical inspection certification for two years can be arranged by the seller.
The cab specification is well equipped, including air conditioning, a sunroof, a sunvisor, a roof spoiler, parking heater, a small bunk, a multifunction steering wheel, a Scania CD radio, LED daytime running lights, foglights, work lights, and wide front tyres. The cab sits on air suspension as noted.
