Commercial Building Maintenence Company uses Box Truck
This 1993 Mitsubishi Cab-Over Box Truck is being used for the storage and transport of the tool- of-the-trade for commercial cleaning. Notice the lift-gate used for lifting and lowering heavy objects into the back of the truck. This 1993 truck has 350,000 miles on it and is still being used every day for the needs of the business.
This day the crew was pressure washing the entryways and halls of this multi-unit residential complex.
Tommy Gate Lift Gate shown lowered. It folds up against the rear overhead door frame
while transporting over the road.
A close-up view shows the use of the wall space to carry reels of hose, step ladders and other tools. The plywood walls are outfitted with E-Track which allows attachments such as hooks to hang the various tools and hoses, cables on.
Notice the shelving at the front of the box, its appears to be made with wood framing and plywood. These shelves appear to hold some of the smaller tools and supplies.
The Tommy Gate Raillift gate is used to lift the heavy equipment used for cleaning into the back.

Spotted, a F450 Ford with Utility Body and a Versalift Bucket Lift used by Brighthouse Networks, a cable provider in Central Florida.
Notice how the bucket sets on the rear "bed extension.' take a look at the details below. The extension provides a place for the bucket to ride soft on a "cushion tube". The extension appears to be supported by a frame extension which also has an integrated Pintle Style trailer hitch.
See the "Cushion Tube", providing a soft ride for the Bucket
