Heil® has combined 2 of our amazing products to create the smoothest automated sideload garbage truck in the business! The all-new DuraPack® Rapid Rail® features all of the benefits of the DuraPack® sideload body with the Rapid Rail® arm. The DuraPack® Rapid Rail® features a heavy lifting capacity of up to 1,600 pounds and allows for residential, commercial, and multi-family refuse collection. This allows our customers to utilize one unit with more payload carrying capacity. This eliminates the need for a chase truck and due to the greater payload capacity, fewer trips to the landfill. 

This sideload garbage truck also features proportional controls and dual joystick capabilities. Proportional controls allow for precision control while giving the operator a smoother lift and reducing cab shake. This lift-feathering feature is standard, giving the operator the ability to precisely pick up waste containers from difficult areas. This reduces the need for the operator to exit the cab and reduces wear and tear on the lift, providing more uptime and a lower Total Cost of Collection (TCC). The dual joystick capability provides an easy-to-operate joystick and gives the operator precise control. The benefit of this is that the lift operates like a Rapid Rail® or DuraPack® Python® with the press of a button. This reduces the learning curve and training time and increases productivity from day one. It also allows operators from mixed trash fleets to transition from unit to unit with no loss in route time.

The DuraPack® Rapid Rail® automated sideloader also features Cortex with Insight Display. The "brain" of our system is a rugged mobile controller that provides the intelligence and precise control of our unit demands. Utilizing a mobile controller and placing it in a protected location gives us the intelligence we need and the durability our customers require. This allows for less downtime and ease of service.
