Hyva Announces Launch of the Beta Small-Body Rear Loader

New for North America, Beta delivers power and productivity without FET or CDL.

We are excited to announce the launch of the Beta Rear Loader, available in 11, 13, and 16-yard configurations for the U.S. and Canadian markets. 

The Hyva Beta represents a quality-built solution to address the continued issue of finding and retaining CDL drivers in the waste collection market segment. The 11-yard Beta can be mounted on a non-CDL chassis, and its lower weight does not require FET. Additionally, the Beta features a flat-floor design, a heavy-duty floor mounted ejector cylinder, a large 2-yard hopper, and a tailgate that can accommodate a bin lifter, winch, and container kick bar. Zuniga said the 8-and-10-yard low-profile bodies for the cab-over market would be available soon. Parts will be distributed from Hyva’s Chicago-area warehouse through its network of dealers throughout the country. Local dealers will also provide service backed up by trained factory technicians.

“We are very excited to launch the Beta Rear Loader as it delivers a level of performance and value that fleet owners are looking for. With our acquisition of Usimeca in 2021, we absorbed over 50 years of experience in the design of rear loaders that continue to perform in some of the toughest environments on the planet. That DNA melded very well with our European engineering processes to create the Beta. We believe the Beta offers the right mix of value, performance, and availability that the market requires, the Beta not only packs a punch, but you can tell it’s a quality rear loader and is simple to operate and maintain”, said Chris Zuniga, Head of Sales BU Recycling, North America

The Beta Rear Loader will be on full display later this Spring in booth 4059 at the 2025 Waste Expo, on May 6 – 9, in the Las Vegas Convention Center.
