Terminal tractors (yard trucks or yard hostlers) are purpose-built trucks for moving semi-trailers around ports, distribution centers, and terminals. They have a short wheelbase, heavy-duty transmission, reinforced frame, and a quick-connect fifth wheel for fast trailer hookup and release. Optimized for low-speed maneuvering and frequent coupling cycles, terminal tractors prioritize durability, visibility, and easy service access over long-haul comfort.
Check engine hours, service history, condition of the fifth wheel, hydraulic systems, brakes, tires, and steering. Inspect frame for cracks or weld repairs and test coupling/unlocking under load.
Provide weight, overall dimensions, and whether it’s operable. Most shippers use lowboy trailers or flatbeds for short moves; for international moves check container compatibility and port handling fees.
If dimensions or weights exceed local limits, you may need oversized/overweight permits or escort vehicles. Check route restrictions for height, width, and bridge clearances.
Daily checks of fluids, brakes, tires, lights, and fifth wheel lubrication. Scheduled oil, transmission and hydraulic fluid changes, brake inspections, and cooling system service per manufacturer intervals.
Yes for common models—engines, transmissions, fifth wheel components, and hydraulics are usually available through dealers and aftermarket suppliers. Confirm parts support for older or rare models before buying.
