Takeuchi TCR50-2 Crawler Dumper Honored as Green Industry Pros 2025 Editor’s Choice Award Winner

Green Industry Pros, a nationally recognized magazine serving landscape professionals, has named our TCR50-2 crawler dumper as a 2025 Editor’s Choice Award winner!

The 2025 Green Industry Pros Editor’s Choice Awards represent the landscape industry’s best products, gaining interest from end-users and landscape professionals alike. The awarded products, exhibiting innovation and utility, were chosen based on submitted nominations and audience engagement during a 12-month period on GreenIndustryPros.com and narrowed down to a select few by the editorial team and advisory board.

“Takeuchi is dedicated to providing a robust line of products that can help owners and operators be more productive, and the TCR50-2 is a prime example of that,” said Lee Padgett, national product manager for Takeuchi-US. “We’re really pleased that this new machine is being recognized for its value to the landscape industry, and we hope more contractors will discover how it can help do tough hauling jobs faster and more efficiently.”

The TCR50-2 efficiently moves heavy materials across challenging terrain. With a 65-degree dumping angle and 8,157-lb. maximum loading weight, the TCR50-2 allows operators to carry up to 2.7 cu yds of material while rotating and dumping it in a single cycle. The machine’s ability to rotate its dump bed 180° reduces both the need to constantly reposition the machine and deterioration of its rubber tracks.

The TCR50-2’s operator’s station features an intuitive 5.7” multi-information color display with standard 180° rearview camera, hydraulic joystick controls, adjustable suspension seat, powerful air conditioner, radio with USB functionality and large cup holder. Hydraulic pilot controls deliver smooth operation for both travel and dump body functions, while the foot throttle efficiently adjusts engine speed.

“Compact, precision, electric and autonomous — these were common ways to describe this year’s winners of Green Industry Pros’ Editor’s Choice award,” said Marina Mayer, content director for Ironmarkets, owner of Green Industry Pros magazine. “This year’s winning products are designed or enhanced to help landscape professionals balance the daily demands of their business, save on time, money and labor and work smarter, not harder.”

Green Industry Pros magazine is a leading voice that keeps landscape contractors and equipment dealers on top of the latest products, trends, technologies, and business strategies that help with growth, productivity, and profitability for their operations.
