United Rentals is here to connect you with the best used bucket truck for sale for your specific project. These versatile machines are often used to lift heavy loads and supplies to workers. They can also be used to safely lift people to perform tasks that are otherwise unreachable. Bucket trucks — sometimes referred to as cherry picker trucks or boom trucks — use a telescopic or articulating arm to perform a variety of lifting tasks at worksites. Boom trucks with telescopic arms are ideal for linear movement, and articulating boom trucks are great for compact spaces that require more maneuvering.
