system and pumped clean into high horsepower equipment ; and the “ multi-tank ” trailer and truck platform that allows contractors to haul bulk diesel to their jobsites without requiring a HAZMAT endorsement .
Each available in a trailer that is easy to haul behind pickups and larger work trucks — while also serving as a platform for additional fluid and service needs , such as oil storage and reclamation , bulk grease systems , and workstations capable of being mounted within each trailer that include retractable workbenches and welder / generator / air compressors .
“ The construction industry , like everyone else , is dealing with skilled labor challenges – especially as it relates to finding labor with HAZMAT endorsements ,” says Lea . “ Combine that with the fact that hauling and managing your own bulk diesel helps you control fueling schedules , availability and even pricing by buying in bulk – and our line of no HAZMAT solutions has found a strong home in these industries .”
The multi-tank concept gained so much traction that the company has also made it available on a truck chassis , particularly in demand in urban areas where traffic is heavy and access is tight . We have equipment rental companies in New York City , for instance , who rely on the truck solution to keep their equipment fueled and serviced ,” says Lea . “ The savings these solutions provide in time , labor and cost often deliver an extremely fast return on investment .”
The three solutions best suited for work in these heavy / offroad environments .
• The Multi-Tank Trailer ( MTT )/ Multi-Tank Trailer with Oil ( MTO ): Up to 920 gallons of fluids plus 100 gallons of DEF and additional storage and work areas . The MTO handles up to five different fluid types , including fresh oil , grease , reclaim , diesel exhaust fluid and diesel fuel .
• The Multi-Tank Truck : Up to 920 gallons of diesel on a truck chassis .
• The Service & Lube Trailer : Up to 690 gallons of bulk fluids plus 100 gallons of DEF and additional storage and work areas .
2021 marks Thunder Creek ’ s first exhibition at NATDA ( Booth 173 ), and the company is excited to share these solutions with the North American trailer distribution network .
“ Demand for these trailers and trucks continues to increase and we are expanding our footprint throughout more of the U . S . — we look forward to connecting with the industry in Nashville in September .”
