Frequently Asked Questions

What is a utility service body, and what is it used for?

A utility service body replaces the factory bed with lockable exterior compartments around an open cargo area, so a field crew has a workshop wherever the truck is parked. Water, sewer, gas, electrical, and telecom crews all run them.

How much do custom utility truck beds cost?

Bed length, material, and the interior package drive the number. A crane, compressor, or drawer system moves it further. We price the bed your crews will actually use rather than a starting figure that climbs later.

What features should a work truck with a utility bed include?

Start with a compartment layout designed around the tools your trade uses daily, then secure locking hardware, quality interior lighting, and shelving that keeps small parts findable. Ladder racks, C-Tech drawer systems, top-side toolboxes, master locking, and Venturo cranes are common additions.

Can custom utility truck beds be configured for specific utility trades?

Yes, and they should be. Electrical crews need wire spool racks and conduit storage. Water and sewer crews need larger open compartments for fittings and pumps. Telecom crews need a secure space for test equipment.

Which truck chassis are compatible with a utility service body?

Three-quarter-ton and one-ton pickups, one-ton cab and chassis platforms, and medium duty trucks from all the major manufacturers. Bed length is set by cab-to-axle dimension, and total capacity by frame rating.

Are utility service bodies available in aluminum and steel?

K&K builds utility service bodies in steel as the standard. Steel takes abrasion and impact on the job site and costs less up front. Aluminum builds are available on request and quoted separately.

How long does it take to build and install custom utility truck beds?

Lead time depends on how customized the build is and where we are in the production schedule. A standard utility bed moves faster than one with a crane, compressor, and custom drawer system. Installation happens at our Georgia facility.
