Originally used for picking fruits in orchards, the boom bucket truck is now identified more with linemen. This revolutionary utility vehicle has enabled countless courageous men install, maintain, and fix electrical and telecommunications wiring that bring light to your home and allow your phone function.
The toolbox is also important in their work but many linemen consider their boom bucket trucks as the one thing they can’t live without while on the field. Indeed, they’re going to have a hard time going up utility poles without them, and ladders have a limit on how high they can rise up. It’s unimaginable to see linemen climb poles halfway using ladders and move up the rest with the help of climbing spikes and a safety harness.
From its humble designs for cherry-picking (hence the nickname “cherry picker”), these trucks have seen major modifications. Manufacturers have made them more user-friendly, ergonomic, safe, and easy to operate. Compartments have also been included in buckets to make sure that their users can bring the tools or materials they need. These improvements inspire linemen to work harder while in the field.
Considering the importance of electricity, the good partnership between linemen and boom bucket trucks is sure to last for a long time to come.
