Thwaites Dumpers

As one of our oldest franchises, we have represented this Birmingham based manufacturer of site dumpers since 1977. Then the most popular selling model was the 2 ton four wheel drive. Today it is the 6 ton with a power swivel skip which allows you to tip the load to either side. The range of dumpers starts at 1 ton and goes up to the 10 ton with the different weights having a variety of forward tip and power swivel models.
