Trucking and Distribution Centers

Magnetic Sweepers are used extensively in the trucking industry and warehouse distribution centers.

Operation

Magnetic sweepers are mounted on “switchers” or “yard jockeys”.  These are the service vehicles which routinely move tractor trailers around the terminal area from dock-dock and from cab-cab.  Magnetic Sweepers are mounted underneath the vehicle and routinely pick up the dangerous steel trash from the loading dock area, terminal and thru-ways.

Benefits

  • Eliminates steel banding, nails and tire-puncturing steel trash
  • Saves on downtime and flat tires when trucks are on the road
  • Dramatically reduces workplace injury
