Reading Truck adds contractor body to line up

Reading Truck is expanding its truck body line-up with a contractor body. 

The Bowmansville-based truck equipment manufacturer and distributor said the new truck is designed to meet the needs of today’s contractors. 

“Our goal is to provide our customers with a flexible, safe, and durable design,” said Eric McNally, vice president of Sales and Marketing at Reading Truck.  “It’s a really great option for our customers who are seeking a versatile workhorse that can be customized to meet their needs.”  

Reading Truck’s contractor body comes equipped with A60 galvannealed steel construction, e-coat primer and powder coat finish. 

 “Contractors are demanding a better-equipped and more flexible work truck, and we believe that we have met that challenge.” said McNally.   

Available in 10’ and 12’ lengths, the contractor body is built upon Reading’s heavy-duty platform body and includes standard features like a fork truck loadable material rack, 12 gauge hot-rolled deck plate, moveable tailboard for different space configurations with 17” fold-down rails, and our signature tool boxes, among others.  

The Contractor Body also addresses the safety of operators with enhanced LED lighting, and an interchangeable tapered bulkhead available to improve visibility from the cab, Reading Truck said. Many options are also available for this body, including a top-opening Spacemaker and shovel box for long storage.
