Hooklift FAIL Fixed? Inside Look at Keystone’s Waste + Stellar’s NEW Adjustable Hooklift Design

In this video, I take you inside Keystone to pick up our Kenworth hooklift truck after a warranty repair on a Stellar hooklift that failed early on. But this isn’t just a pickup — this is a behind-the-scenes look at how Stellar completely redesigned their adjustable hooklift system and why it matters for dumpster operators running hooklift trucks every day.

Stellar rolled out a brand-new adjustable hooklift design, allowing the hook height to be adjusted automatically from 54 inches up to 61¾ inches, fixing a known weak point and moving all plumbing internal to eliminate interference and failure points. We break down what failed, why it failed, what changed, and how Keystone installed the new system.

You’ll also get a full walkthrough of:

Keystone’s growing truck shop and fabrication operation

How hooklift trailers and hoists are built (real hours, real labor)

Why simple, durable designs beat flashy upgrades

How warranty repairs should be handled in this industry

What operators should actually care about when spec’ing hooklift equipment

This is real-world dumpster business content — no sales pitch, no marketing fluff, just honest talk about equipment, repairs, and scaling a blue-collar operation the right way.

If you run dumpsters, hooklift trucks, roll-off trailers, or are thinking about getting into the waste industry, this video is for you.
