Battle Motors
Curbtender and Battle Motors have teamed up to offer the popular Quantum MD rear loader with the Battle Motors fully electric low narrow tilt (LNT) chassis. Quantum’s patented design allows for a faster, lighter rear loader with industry leading legal payload. Pair this with the Battle Motors LNT which expertly maneuvers tight side streets and alleyways and you’ve got a rear loader ready to tackle your route with zero emissions!

CNG
Most of our refuse trucks can be outfitted for CNG fuel systems, often with accommodation for rooftop CNG fuel tanks. This includes our popular PowerPak Automated Side Loader, as well as our Fuzion Split Body Automated Side Loader. The Fuzion SB automated side loader is designed with a sleek, low profile that allows more clearance from trees and other low hanging obstructions. The lower profile is especially helpful in roof-mounted CNG configurations.
Class 6
Class 7 & 8
Curbtender is focused on providing fleet-ready electric refuse collection vehicles. For a number of reasons, class 6 refuse trucks will be the first feasible fleet solutions for waste haulers. Most importantly, the charging station required is much smaller than that needed by a class 8 truck. This means the charger can be affordably purchased and installed, typically without major improvements to the power distribution at a fleet’s facility.
Curbtender’s Quantum MD paired with a Battle Motors LNT all-electric chassis are EV solutions that are ready to be put to work in today’s fleet. Wondering if Curbtender’s EV products are right for your fleet? Contact us today for a free power usage study. Our data logging system will capture real power demand from your specific route, which is then analyzed by our team of engineers to ensure our solutions will work on your route.
Curbtender has been involved in several feasibility studies as well as prototype development for class 8 all-electric refuse trucks. Make no mistake, electric chassis are the future of the waste industry! However, major hurdles currently exist with electric infrastructure, battery packaging, and battery cost which largely relegates class 8 all-electric refuse trucks to evaluative technology right now. For the fleets interested in being first to move to electric, Curbtender is ready to partner together to implement EV automated side loaders. Our partnership with XL Grid helps us bring expert analysis to the fleet’s facility capabilities and recharge needs.
