Hooklifts & Hookloaders
Palfinger vehicle-loading crane specialists
Hook-lift systems turn a single truck into a versatile workhorse, swapping bins, bodies and equipment on and off as the job demands. REA supplies, installs and supports hook-lift systems for heavy-vehicle applications, and like our crane work, we handle the whole job rather than just the hardware.
Supply, install & integrate
Hooklift or hookloader system installations involve engineering, fabrication, hydraulic integration, electrical work, installation and commissioning, all of which REA manages in-house. We match the system to your vehicle and your intended application, then engineer and commission it so it works reliably from day one.

Hooklifts & Hookloaders FAQs
What is a hooklift system used for?
A hook-lift (or hookloader) lets one truck load, carry and unload interchangeable bins and bodies, so a single vehicle can do the work of several. That flexibility is why they are popular across transport, waste, mining, construction, utilities and specialised fleets.
Can REA fit a hook-lift system to my existing truck?
Yes. We supply and install hook-lift systems for heavy vehicles, managing the engineering, fabrication, hydraulic integration, electrical work and commissioning in-house. Send us your vehicle and application details and we can assess it.
Do you service and repair hook-lift equipment as well as supply it?
Yes. We provide ongoing service, repairs, technical support and parts assistance for hook-lift equipment, not just the initial supply and install.
Can you source hooklift spare parts?
Yes. Our parts capability draws on REA-held stock, partner stock and manufacturer and supplier networks, so we can help with common service items and harder-to-find components.
