Alpha-III

description specs

The Leach Alpha III rear loader is a mid range refuse collection body engineered for reliable and efficient residential waste collection. Designed for consistent performance, it delivers strong compaction, fast cycle times, and a low loading sill to improve route efficiency and operator safety.

Available in body sizes from 14 to 32 cubic yards, the Alpha III features a standard 3.0 cubic yard hopper and Diamond Force compaction design to maximize payload while reducing voids. A telescopic ejector cylinder is mounted at an upward angle to stay clear of debris and direct compaction forces away from the body floor, enhancing long term durability.

Built with reinforced steel construction, a thick body floor, and chromium carbide wear components, the Alpha III is designed for extended service life and reduced maintenance. Its balanced design and efficient hydraulic system make it a proven rear loader solution for residential refuse collection fleets.
