Introduction: Two Smart Ways to Move Trash and Materials
Let’s look at two big helpers for any job site or city. Self-loading dump trucks are trucks that load items with their own loader, like a bucket. Traditional waste haulers are trucks made to pick up trash cans and squeeze garbage tight. When you make choices for fleet management, you want to know which one is best for your work and your wallet.

Running Costs: Fuel, Repairs, People
Buying is just the start. You must look at what it really costs to keep these waste vehicles moving.
Fuel Use
- Dump trucks get 5-10 miles per gallon.
- Waste haulers use 3-7 miles per gallon. They use more fuel because they are heavy and stop a lot.
Labor Cost
- Self-loading only needs one driver.
- Waste haulers need a driver and one or two loaders.
- Fewer workers means your labor cost drops by half or more.
Fixes and Upkeep
- Self-loaders are simple—fewer hydraulic parts to break.
- Haulers have more working parts, so maintenance costs are higher.
- Tractor tires wear out. We help you plan for this with our maintenance management systems.
| Cost | Camión volteador autoladador | Traditional Waste Hauler |
|---|---|---|
| Fuel (per day) | Más bajo | Higher |
| Labor (per shift) | Low ($200-$400) | High ($400-$800) |
| Yearly Maintenance | $5,000-$15,000 | $10,000-$30,000 |
We offer great after-sales and technical consulting so you are never left alone.
Who Works Best? How Trucks Do the Job
Loading and Unloading
- Self-loaders pick up things fast with the bucket on the truck.
- Waste haulers work best with curbside cans.
What Can the Truck Hold?
- Haulers pack waste tight, carrying more per trip.
- Self-loaders are better for things you can’t squash, like wood, rocks, and bulk debris.
Where Can They Go?
- Self-loading dump trucks fit in tight or rough places.
- Waste haulers are big and great for street runs.
You can use self-loading dump trucks for lots of jobs: construction, landscaping, farming, even for grúas de manejo de materiales or hauling dirt with a good volquete.
The True Cost: Total Cost of Ownership
Think of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) as the real price tag. It adds up everything: buying, fuel, people, fixing, and selling the truck later.

Case Study:
A construction company used to pay for two different trucks: a loader and a dumper. They switched to a CLW GROUP self-loading dump truck. Labor dropped 50%, and they finished more jobs each day.
Another Example:
A city tried self-loaders for picking up big items. These trucks saved money for mattresses and couches, but for regular trash, the waste haulers did better. A mixed team worked best.
