The Importance of 
Yard Truck Maintenance

Yard jockey trucks are essential for moving trailers in confined spaces. Downtime caused by a malfunctioning yard mule or trailer switcher leads to delayed shipments. Routine maintenance—including inspections and lubrication—is crucial for operational efficiency.

Maintaining your yard dog truck ensures compliance with OSHA yard jockey requirements. Regular checks of the fifth wheel and hydraulic systems extend the lifespan of your yard goat truck, reducing the need for expensive replacements. Rolon offers the preventive maintenance you need to keep your yard equipment running.

Your Yard Jockey Repair Questions, Answered

We get many questions about yard jockey truck repairs and maintenance. Here are some of the most common ones, with our answers:
1. What is a yard truck?
A yard truck (also called a yard jockey, yard mule, or terminal tractor) is a specialized vehicle designed to move trailers and containers within a cargo yard, warehouse, or port facility. They feature a hydraulic lifting fifth wheel to move trailers without cranking the landing gear.
2. Can you drive a yard truck on the road?
Most standard yard trucks are designed for off-road use within private facilities (Off-Highway). However, DOT-certified models (On-Highway) equipped with proper lights, mirrors, and emissions systems can be legally driven on public roads for short distances.
3. Do you need a CDL to drive a yard truck?
If the yard truck stays strictly on private property (like a warehouse yard), a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) is typically not required by federal law, though employers often require specialized training. If the truck is driven on public roads, a CDL is mandatory.
4. Are there any top-rated yard truck repair services in Sanford, FL?
Yes, Rolon Mobile Truck Repair is a top-rated provider serving Sanford and the greater Orlando area. We specialize in mobile yard jockey truck repair and have extensive experience with brands like Ottawa and Capacity.
5. What are the common services offered by yard truck specialists in FL?
Common services include hydraulic system repair (specifically the fifth wheel lift), transmission repair, brake maintenance, and supplying yard truck parts. Specialists also perform preventive maintenance inspections to comply with OSHA and DOT standards.
