Hiab , a leading provider of smart and sustainable on road load handling solutions, has secured MOFFETT truck mounted forklift, HIAB loader crane and WALTCO tail lift orders in the USA. A strategic customer in the roofing supply segment placed two separate orders for HIAB loader cranes and MOFFETT truck mounted forklifts with a combined value of EUR 7.2 million. Two separate customers in the fleet management segment ordered WALTCO tail lifts with a combined value of the orders of EUR 8.2 million.
The orders were booked in Q1, 2025 with deliveries scheduled throughout 2025.
Hiab has maintained long-standing partnerships with the three customers, having been an integral part of their US-wide operations as an equipment and service provider for years.
The WALTCO tail lift units on order are from the C, EM, HLF and WDV series with the majority of units from the WALTCO HLF series. WALTCO liftgates are designed to tackle logistics and distribution from coast to coast, from urban city use to heavy duty long haul and special applications.

“The sustained partnerships Hiab maintains with these three customers reflects our in-depth comprehension of the US market’s demands,” says Pauliina Kunvik, Senior Vice President Sales and Services, North America, Hiab.
The truck-mounted forklifts units on order are part of the MOFFETT M8 NX Range. With a lifting capacity of up to 3,500 kg, the M8 NX can transfer heavy loads quickly and safely even across challenging terrain, while compact enough to be carried on almost any truck or trailer.
The ordered HIAB loader cranes comprise three models from the heavy range portfolio with the majority of the units being HIAB X-HiPro 408. The cranes have the HiPro advanced remote controlled system for optimal precision, performance, safety and full remote control over the toughest jobs in construction and other industries.
