What Is a Dump Trailer?
Dump trailers are semi-trailers with hydraulic-lift dump bodies for hauling and unloading bulk materials — aggregate, sand, gravel, scrap metal, and construction debris. Available in end-dump, side-dump, and bottom-dump configurations. Top manufacturers: East Manufacturing, MAC Trailer, Smithco, and Travis Body & Trailer.
Common Uses for Dump Trailers
- Construction material hauling — gravel, road base, sand, and fill dirt
- Asphalt paving debris and milling material removal
- Scrap metal and recycling facility loads
- Agricultural bulk material — grain, fertilizer, and feed
- Demolition debris and C&D waste hauling
- Quarry aggregate and mining material transport
What to Look for When Buying a Dump Trailer
- Dump style — end-dump (most common), side-dump (stable, good for slopes), bottom-dump (for granular materials)
- Body capacity — measured in cubic yards; 20–24 CY typical for standard end-dump trailers
- Body material — steel (durable, repairable) vs. aluminum (lighter, better payload, corrosion-resistant)
- Number of axles — tandem most common; tri-axle for heavier loads or bridge law compliance
- Hydraulic system — single vs. telescoping cylinder; condition is critical to inspect on used units
