Street sweeping is the most common application for the Sterling Cargo thanks to its unique body-friendly design. The Cargo is engineered to combine the benefits of a shorter overall length (easier maneuverability) and longer vocational bodies (more payload), making it an ideal truck choice for sweeping applications. With fuel-saving aerodynamic elements on the outside like A-pillar air deflectors, and comfort options on the inside like the optional air-suspended seats, Cargo is appreciated by managers and drivers alike.
