UTV Uses on a Construction Site
Utility terrain vehicles (UTVs) or side-by-sides are known for their incredible versatility. These powersports vehicles are capable of accomplishing many different jobs. The small size, off-road capabilities, and durable construction make them ideal for both professional and recreational use. The most common way to use a UTV is for professional work, specifically construction work. No matter what the job, UTVs are a frequent sight on construction sites. You can haul equipment, transport crew members, hitch a trailer, and even complete some construction tasks using the right attachments.
Increased Mobility
When something demands your immediate, in-person attention at a construction site, it’s not always convenient to walk the whole distance. This makes a side-by-side the perfect choice. Quickly taking your crew members in a UTV saves time and allows you to keep a closer eye on different work areas. Plus, UTVs can easily pass through smaller spaces which pickup trucks or SUVs can't, meaning you can maintain your speed where it counts.
Get the Job Done
The low profile of a UTV lends itself to navigating around crowded construction worksites, and its capacity for cargo and passengers paired with high-traction tires makes the UTV ideal for transporting tools, loose materials, and workers across rough terrain. You can also hitch up a trailer for more cargo capacity, and even use different attachments to perform various construction tasks.
Safety
Besides being faster than walking, driving a UTV around a construction site is also safer. As you know that construction zones are generally full of tripping hazards and moving objects that pose a risk to those on the site. Behind the wheel of a side-by-side, you’ll have the protection of a durable frame, plus the advantage to get to safety fast.
Reduced Costs
Another perk is that UTVs are a cost-effective form of transportation that offers all of the speed and hauling capabilities you'll need on a construction site. Many contractors use pickup trucks to get around, but a side-by-side can be just as effective with added benefits like mobility and ease of use.
Other Projects
UTVs can provide a number of benefits to landscaping professionals, too. With so many useful implements available for UTVs, they can even take the place of tractors in many instances. These versatile vehicles can be used for raking up debris, harrowing, plowing, sowing seeds, fertilizing, and hauling bags of livestock feed and bales of hay.
These are just a few of the many uses of UTVs for construction tasks and some other projects. Visit Bobcat of Pittsburgh/Erie/Indiana County to check out our vast inventory of UTVs for sale. We have dealerships across Pennsylvania, and we proudly serve all those in Ohio and Indiana.
