Explore Our Range Of Used Tractors With Loaders
Here are our latest deals for you to explore.
What is a Tractor Loader?
A tractor loader is an attachment mounted to the front, rear, or both ends of a tractor, most commonly used for lifting and moving materials. The most familiar configuration is a front loader, which features a wide bucket for scooping and transporting materials without dragging them across the ground. Alternatively, backhoes are mounted to the rear of the tractor and are ideal for digging and excavation tasks.
​
You’ll also find loader tractors that feature both front loaders and backhoes—these multi-functional machines are available as part of our tractor package deals.
​
Front Loader Tractor
A front loader tractor is fitted with a front-mounted bucket attached to two hydraulic arms (booms). These are designed to handle a wide range of materials such as gravel, wood chips, soil, rock salt, snow, and debris.
The front bucket can often be removed and swapped for different implements, such as:
-
Pallet forks
-
Bale grabs
-
Clamshell buckets
-
Grapples
We stock compact tractors with front loaders that are perfect for smallholdings, estates, landscaping, and more.
​
Backhoe Tractor
A backhoe tractor is equipped with a digging arm and a smaller bucket mounted at the rear. Known for its reverse digging motion (pulling material back toward the tractor), the backhoe is ideal for deeper excavation work compared to a front loader.
Thanks to powerful hydraulics and an articulated boom and dipper, a backhoe can dig with speed and precision. Like front loaders, backhoes can also be fitted with additional attachments such as:
-
Augers
-
Hydraulic breakers
-
Grapples
-
Tilt rotators
Backhoes are commonly used for trenching, drainage, and foundation work.
​
Front Loader vs Backhoe: What’s Right for You?
Both loader types serve different purposes. A front loader is great for shifting, lifting, and general handling, while a backhoe is better suited to digging and breaking ground. When combined, they create an incredibly versatile piece of equipment capable of handling most on-site tasks—check out our tractor package deals to find the best combination for your needs.
