Wheel loaders, sometimes called loading shovels, are among the most widely used types of construction equipment. Their versatility makes them ideal for a wide range of tasks, from earthmoving to material transport and bulk handling.

A wheel loader, also known as a shovel loader or loading shovel, is a heavy-duty machine used to lift and move materials such as soil, sand, rubble or gravel. It features a large front-mounted bucket, which allows for fast and efficient loading; for example into articulated dumpers or walking floor trailers.
With the ability to attach various hydraulic tools, wheel loaders are extremely adaptable across industries. Whether you're reshaping a job site or transporting heavy loads, a loading shovel offers the performance and flexibility you need.
Depending on the make and model, shovel loaders can be controlled in different ways. Most use a traditional steering wheel in the cabin, offering either full steering or half steering (CSS). Joystick steering is also common and offers greater precision, especially in tight spaces.
Volvo’s Comfort Drive Control (CDC) system is available on some models and allows operators to switch between steering wheel and joystick. This dual control setup makes operation easier and more comfortable, especially during long shifts.
Wheel loaders typically come with either open or closed buckets, depending on their intended use. Open buckets are the most common for general material handling.
Controlling the loader arm and bucket can be done using joystick or fingertip controls. These systems give operators precise command over every movement. Many newer models also include onboard weighing systems, helping you load accurately and avoid overloading.
Some loading shovels are equipped with high-lift arms, which provide extra height for loading into high-sided trailers or containers. These high-lift loaders are ideal for bulk handling tasks at transfer stations, farms or construction sites.
Hi-tip buckets allow you to dump material at greater heights and distances. This makes them perfect for handling lightweight bulk goods like grain, compost, or waste, with faster cycle times and fewer repositionings.
