Bluff Manufacturing Company Profile

Wheel and truck risers eliminate below-dock loading conditions.

Wheel and truck risers eliminate below-dock loading conditions.

Raise semi-trailer or box delivery trucks and vans up to dock height with a line of wheel and truck risers to eliminate unsafe, belowdock loading conditions.

Made of heavy-duty steel grating, the truck versions raise an entire box truck or van (if dock conditions permit), positioning the vehicle properly above the dock for more efficient loading and unloading, while reducing damage to other equipment such dock levelers or dock boards. The wheel models raise only the back wheels of a truck, making them affordable and lightweight.

They are offered in standard sizes of 30,000-pound capacity aluminum or 40,000-pound capacity steel. Custom risers may also be engineered for unique applications.
