Perkins Manufacturing Company SAT3, 3 Yard Unit

The smallest of the Perkins SAT series, the SAT 3 offers a low profile design with the capabilities of collecting 3 cubic yards of material. Available with any Perkins lifter style as well as the easy to use mess tarp. Additionally, the ability to remove the entire unit saves time and money by not having to fully devote a vehicle to the usage of the SAT 3.

The SAT 3 allows the collection or distribution of 3 cubic yards of material (up to 2,000 lbs) using a standard 8′ pickup truck.   Ordinary pickup trucks can access areas regular garbage trucks cannot.  Use the SAT 3 in state parks, camping and beach locations, remote areas, missed pick-ups, food waste and organics collection, landscaping, gravel, soil and compost delivery, recycling programs, facility maintenance, and special events.
