4 Ways One Piece of Roofing Equipment Can Make Your Job Easier

By Equipter. 

Don’t just get the job done. Get it done more efficiently with the right roofing equipment. 

There are hundreds of roofing tools that help you get the job done, but very few are multifunctional.  

Hauling two tons of shingles per roof is hard work even with tools like a hydraulic trailer or scissor lifts. The fact of the matter is that these machines just weren’t made for roofers. Picture a piece of equipment that was designed for you, the roofing professional. A machine that was created to make homeowners happy, save labor costs, reduce material-handling issues.  

You just saw the Equipter drivable, liftable dumpster.  

The Equipter was designed for roofers by roofers, so it delivers all the labor-saving, hassle-eliminating benefits that traditional roofing equipment simply can’t.  

How will the Equipter make your roofing jobs easier? 

1 - Save the landscaping 

Ever find yourself explaining to a homeowner that their prized Japanese maple was accidentally mowed down by your crew? The RB4000 (sometimes called the Roofers Buggy) has an aluminum dump container that can be extended backward 4 feet, a landscape-saving feature that allows you to extend the container to cover plants, shrubs, and other features next to the customer’s home. 

2- Extend your reach 

The Equipter container’s hydraulics lift the rust-resistant lightweight container up to 12 feet high so you can position it directly under the eaves for easy debris removal. For extra reach, the Rear Extension Kit offers self-supporting rails that attach to the back of the RB4000, allowing you to build a ramp of one or two pieces of plywood to direct debris from the roof into the container. 

3 - Manage debris 

The Equipter container’s lids easily open to create a 10.5-foot catch area that funnels roofing shingles and other debris directly into the unit. That means fewer scraps for you to clean up and less trash for the homeowner to find in his or her flowers. The Equipter makes debris management seem like child’s play when compared to a scissor lift trailer or hydraulic trailer. 

4 - Eliminate on-site towing and wheelbarrow hauling 

Stop the unnecessary double-handling of roofing debris. Drive the Equipter directly from the home to a nearby dump trailer or truck via its gas-powered hydraulic drive system — no towing required on the job site — and use the easy-to-operate controls to let the hydraulic-operated tailgate down and dump the debris directly into the larger dump trailer. 

What’s the bottom line for you and your roofing crew? 

Less time on the job, from start to finish 

With an Equipter, you and your roofers spend less time navigating and manhandling on-site material and debris. Less material handling = more work with fewer crew members. 

A cleaner job site that homeowners will love 

Roofing clients love hiring roofers who use the Equipter because it keeps the mess off their valuable property. Cleaner job site = happy roofing clients = more referrals. 

Residential roofing equipment like a hydraulic lift, hydraulic trailer and scissor lift trailer may have been okay in the past, but when you want to save labor costs, boost efficiency and make customers happy enough to refer you to other prospects, it’s time to invest in roofing equipment that’s more than okay.
