Headline: Green Sanitation Upgrade — 4 Electric 1.5t Hook Lift Trucks Delivered to Kenya
[City, Date] — A shipment of 4 units electric 1.5 ton hook lift trucks has been completed and dispatched to Kenya, supporting local urban waste collection and skip container transfer operations.
This electric hook lift model is built for light-duty municipal sanitation work. It is equipped with a 63 kWh lithium battery, 3100 mm wheelbase, gross vehicle weight of 4495 kg, and curb weight of 2800 kg. The compact wheelbase design brings good maneuverability, which suits narrow urban streets and complex working conditions in Kenyan cities. With a GVW under 4.5 tons, the truck is easy for registration and daily operation.
The hydraulic hook lift system enables fast bin loading, unloading and swapping. One single truck can serve multiple skip containers, greatly improving fleet flexibility and lowering investment for waste service operators. As a battery-electric vehicle, it runs with zero exhaust emission, low noise and reduced operating costs, matching Kenya’s growing demand for eco-friendly municipal equipment. The vehicle adopts tropical-proof sealing and reinforced hydraulic components to adapt to East Africa’s hot and humid climate.
The customer selected this batch of electric hook lifts to renew their sanitation fleet. Compared with conventional diesel hook lift trucks, the electric version cuts fuel expenditure and reduces carbon footprint. Our team will provide on-site operation training, technical guidance and reliable spare parts support after the vessels arrive at Mombasa Port.
“This delivery marks another step of our green special vehicle business in East Africa. We keep developing practical light electric sanitation trucks tailored for the African market. More electric and diesel hook lift trucks, garbage trucks and skip loaders are available for clients across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and neighbouring countries,” commented our sales manager.
We will continue to supply durable, cost-effective special vehicles for municipal, contractor and waste management customers in Africa.
