Scania P Series tippers may come with a more compact cab than those available on the firm's larger long-haul trucks, but they can still put in a good day's work and act efficiently to transport loose loads for construction, demolition or waste management purposes. Standard steel body tippers are featured in this range, as are bulk tippers with alloy containers on the rear.
Old and new models alike have been designed and built with Scania's excellent levels of reliability and efficiency. And whether you want to pick a nearly new 8x4 P Series tipper or one of the older 4 Series Tippers at 32 tonners in the range, the right truck is waiting for you.
The cab of a P Series tipper will seem squatter and stockier than that of the G or R Series. This not only cuts down on the weight of the truck, but also means that it will be much more manoeuvrable when encountering the kinds of scenarios that are common for tippers from all manufacturers.

Whether weaving its way through city streets or covering rough terrain on a cluttered construction site, the size of a P Series tipper will work in its favour while still giving the driver excellent levels of visibility. A day cab is more usually found on these models, although sleeper variants are available, especially on P Series tippers with bulk bodies that are expected to perform long-haul duties.
The tipping body may feature benefits such as integrated weighing capabilities to avoid unsafe payloads, reversing cameras for further safety improvements and even easy sheet systems to provide quick protection against adverse weather conditions when required. The efficiency of a Scania P Series tipper is typified by a combination of these elements, although there are of course different specifications from model to model, and on the used market it is crucial to do some research so that the truck you buy is fit for purpose.
Euro 6 Scania Engines available
You can expect to encounter Euro-compliant engines of various ages on board P Series tippers, with each taking greater steps than the last to make sure that emissions from this type of truck are kept as low as technology can push them. And even Euro 3 engines which are found on some second-hand Scania tippers are still surprisingly economical, with their overall reliability adding to the sustainability of day-to-day use. The firm's Opticruise system is featured in some of the later models, offering excellent improvements to fuel efficiency which come into play during long-distance trips on the motorway as well as when low speed manoeuvres are being made on-site.
A used Scania P Series tipper may feature extra components, including a roof beacon to make sure that it can be easily seen when set to work, along with things such as a sun visor, sunroof and advanced ventilation to keep the driver comfortable. So you should not only check the tipping rams on these trucks but also inspect the details of the specification sheet so that the used P Series tipper you select is the best option for you.
