Spreader Trucks For Sale
A salt spreader truck is an indispensable tool for keeping roads, parking lots, and worksites safe during winter weather along side its trusty partner; the snow plow truck. Designed to distribute salt, sand, or other de-icing materials evenly across surfaces, these trucks help prevent ice build-up and improve traction. At Ritchie Bros., you’ll find a wide variety of spreader trucks for sale, from heavy-duty municipal rigs to compact pickup salt spreader options that fit smaller operations.
What Is A Spreader Truck?
Also known simply as a salt truck or sand truck, a spreader truck is typically a dump or flatbed truck fitted with a specialized spreading unit. These units may use hydraulic, auger, or conveyor systems to discharge materials at a controlled rate. The goal is simple: deliver consistent coverage of de-icing material to maximize road safety while minimizing waste. Some models integrate plow systems, allowing operators to plow and spread in one pass.
Types Of Spreader Systems
Spreader trucks come in several configurations, giving operators flexibility depending on fleet size and application:
- Tailgate Spreaders – Mounted on the back of a dump truck, ideal for municipalities and contractors covering large areas.
- V-Box Spreaders – Hopper-style units that fit in dump beds or flatbeds, offering high capacity and reliable discharge.
- Pickup Salt Spreader – Compact spreaders designed to mount in the bed of a pickup, offering cost-effective solutions for smaller lots, sidewalks, and private properties.
- Sand Spreader For Truck – Versatile spreaders that handle both salt and sand, allowing year-round use for winter road maintenance and dust control.
Key Features To Look For
When evaluating a salt spreader truck or sand spreader for truck, buyers often consider:
- Capacity – From small ½-ton pickup units to high-volume municipal spreaders.
- Material Compatibility – Whether the spreader handles salt, sand, brine, or blends.
- Spreading Mechanism – Chain conveyors, augers, or spinner discs all affect precision and efficiency.
- Control Systems – Hydraulic or electronic controllers that allow the operator to adjust flow rate and coverage width from inside the cab.
- Durability – Stainless steel and polyethylene hoppers resist corrosion from salt exposure and extend service life.
New Vs. Used Spreader Trucks
Choosing between new and used spreader equipment often comes down to budget, availability, and fleet requirements. New salt spreader trucks offer advanced controls, improved efficiency, and warranties, while used spreader trucks remain a cost-effective option for buyers who need equipment quickly. Ritchie Bros. provides inspection reports along with multiple photos, helping buyers assess condition before purchase. We encourage all bidders to inspect items in person and give your top items for bid a through test.
Applications Beyond Winter
While most people associate a salt truck with snow and ice control, spreaders can also be adapted for year-round work. Sand trucks are frequently used for dust suppression on gravel roads or spreading materials on construction sites. This versatility increases ROI for buyers who want to maximize truck use outside the winter season.
