Bedrock Slingers vs. Traditional Delivery: Why Our Conveyor Trucks Save You Time & Labor

Material placement via slinger truck.

Construction projects in Colorado demand efficiency and precision, especially when it comes to material delivery. While traditional methods like dump trucks and manual spreading have been the norm, Bedrock Slingers’ conveyor trucks offer a modern alternative that saves time, reduces labor, and improves accuracy.

This blog explains the advantages of using conveyor placement trucks from Bedrock Slingers over conventional delivery and why they are the preferred choice for contractors across Colorado, Wyoming, and Nebraska.

What Makes Conveyor Trucks Different from Traditional Delivery?

Traditional material delivery often involves dump trucks unloading materials onto the ground, followed by crews manually spreading and moving materials with shovels, wheelbarrows, or heavy machinery. This process can be slow, labor-intensive, and prone to material waste.

In contrast, conveyor trucks use a powerful conveyor belt to place materials exactly where they are needed—whether it’s gravel, sand, topsoil, or mulch. Bedrock Slingers’ trucks can reach distances up to 150 feet, allowing for precise placement even in tight or difficult-to-access areas.

Benefits of Bedrock Slingers Conveyor Trucks

1. Faster Job Completion

Conveyor trucks significantly reduce the time spent on spreading materials. Instead of multiple workers manually moving materials, one conveyor truck operator can place materials quickly and efficiently, helping projects stay on schedule.

2. Reduced Labor Costs

With fewer workers needed to handle material placement, your labor costs go down. This is especially valuable given the current labor shortages affecting many parts of Colorado’s construction industry.

3. Enhanced Accuracy and Less Waste

Traditional dumping often leads to over-pouring or uneven spreading, causing cleanup and material loss. Conveyor trucks deliver materials directly where they’re needed, minimizing waste and reducing rework.

4. Access to Hard-to-Reach Areas

Whether it’s a foundation backfill, landscaping behind retaining walls, or material placement on rooftops, Bedrock Slingers conveyor trucks can reach spots that traditional dump trucks cannot, offering unmatched flexibility.
