Which electric terminal tractor fits a semi-trailer yard?
The TrailerCaddy Terminal Tractor is a walk-along electric yard mover for repositioning semi-trailers at docks and distribution centers. Its published trailer-weight limit is up to 100,000 lb. The 48V drive, hydraulic lift and heavy-duty kingpin receiver support fifth-wheel trailer moves; an air-brake release kit is optional for a compatible trailer brake setup.
Choose a configuration using the trailer’s actual loaded weight, kingpin or hitch connection, grade, pavement, turning room and brake-release needs. Have DJ Products confirm the application and operating requirements before purchase. Operator training and any licensing or site rules depend on the operation and jurisdiction; do not assume that every employee may operate the unit without training.
For a different trailer connection or a heavier tongue-load requirement, compare the trailer-mover range and request a site-specific recommendation.

Proven Success
The CartCaddyLite electric cart puller can help avoid back strain for many people in the healthcare industry. Doctors, nurses, technicians, maintenance workers, and more can benefit from using this piece of equipment to efficiently complete some of their day-to-day tasks, all while avoiding unnecessary workplace injuries.
Improved Safety & Efficiency
Linen carts used to transport linens to and from patient rooms are often very large and difficult to move through the constricted hallways of a nursing home, clinic, or hospital. Pushing carts repeatedly throughout the day can cause chronic neck and back strain and pain for workers. The CartCaddyLite is a perfect solution: it reduces stress and cuts down the risk of workplace injuries.
