The Workhorse: The Ultimate Gravel Trailer
The HAULIT Workhorse changes how you think about gravel delivery. Instead of just creating piles, you get two systems working together – hydraulic tilt for heavy lifting and precision conveyor placement for exact delivery. This means you can spread materials evenly across driveways or create concentrated stockpiles, all from the same trailer. The system handles everything from fine gravel to heavy aggregate with superior control and efficiency.
What makes it work for gravel hauling:
- Two 7,000 lb axles – 14,000 lb total rating handles heavy gravel without sagging
- Electric over hydraulic lift – The hydraulic tilt deck system provides smooth, controlled lifting with a 12,000 lb capacity front-end lift ram
- Electric drive motor – Industrial conveyor system places gravel exactly where you point it
- Quarter-inch steel frame – Built to take daily punishment from sharp gravel and heavy loads
- One-person operation – Handheld remote lets you control everything safely from outside the trailer
- Spread or dump modes – Even distribution for landscaping or concentrated piles for storage
- Surface protection – Industrial rollers prevent damage to concrete and asphalt during unloading
- Smooth hauling – Torsion bar axles keep gravel stable during transport
High-Capacity Design for Haul More in Every Trip
Your trailer’s cargo space directly impacts your bottom line. The Workhorse handles up to 12,000 lbs of gravel per load, letting you pack more material into every delivery run. Fewer trips between the gravel yard and job sites means less fuel burned and more money earned per day.
Fast Unloading with Electric Tilt System
Time spent unloading is time you’re not earning. The Workhorse’s electric over hydraulic system lifts 12,000 lbs of gravel smoothly and quickly, cutting your unloading time dramatically compared to hand shoveling or manual dumps. You’ll finish jobs faster and move on to the next delivery while competitors are still unloading.
Conveyor Floor System - Smooth, Controlled Gravel Unloading
Forget about stuck loads or uneven piles. The Workhorse’s industrial-grade conveyor floor moves gravel out in a steady, controlled flow, reducing jams and keeping piles precise. This means less time raking or cleaning up after a dump, and a more professional result on every gravel delivery.
Protective Coating - Resists Corrosion and Wear
Gravel is rough on equipment. Sharp edges and constant abrasion destroy ordinary paint jobs within months. The HAULIT Workhorse comes with an industrial powder coating and etched primer that stands up to daily gravel work. Your trailer keeps looking professional while lasting years longer than lightweight alternatives.
Frame Strength
Gravel delivery places significant stress on a trailer’s foundation, so HAULIT builds each frame using ¼-inch structural steel tubing.
Many low-cost dump trailers rely on smaller beams, reduced welding, and insufficient crossmembers—compromises that lead to sagging, twisting, and early failure.
HAULIT’s reinforced frame is engineered to handle continuous weight shifts, high-density material impact, and rough jobsite terrain. Our warranty stands behind the strength of every frame we build
Heavy Duty Steel
The HAULIT tub and side walls are built with industrial-strength structural steel.
The frame and undercarriage are built with heavy-duty steel. Most dump trailers are built with light gauge metal and bracing which leads to warping and deformation. This is where most dump and delivery trailers can keep their upfront costs lower and where you end up spending more for repair or damage.
HAULIT wanted a structure that would last and stand up under extreme use without having to be replaced every 3 years. With proper use and maintenance, HAULIT trailers are built for years of heavy use. The length of the tub is dependent on cargo capacity. HAULIT cargo holds are manufactured in heavy duty steel with 14’, and 18’ lengths being available.
Custom Hitch System
Moving gravel safely requires a reliable hitch setup that can withstand heavy tongue loads and constant in-and-out jobsite use.
Budget trailers often use low-quality hitches that wear quickly or fail under aggregate weight. HAULIT eliminates these issues with a purpose-built hitch assembly designed for commercial hauling.
Every gravel trailer includes:
Breakaway cable with spring-loaded safety mechanism
Industrial 7-way electrical plug
Bolt-on chains for long-term durability
Vertically adjustable hitch for multiple tow vehicles
Drop-foot jack for stability on uneven ground
14K-rated 2 5/16” ball coupler
The result: consistent towing safety and simplified operation for drivers.
7,000lb Axles with Electric Brakes
To maximize legal payload while remaining under CDL thresholds, HAULIT gravel trailers are built with two 7,000 lb axles.
This configuration ensures a smoother ride even when transporting dense aggregates.
The electric braking system syncs with the towing vehicle’s brake controller for predictable stopping power—critical when carrying heavy loose material.
Most states do not require a CDL with proper loading and tarping, making staffing more flexible for gravel delivery companies.
Additional Features
Industrial Conveyor Floor for Controlled Rock Unloading
The patented HAULIT conveyor-style floor is powered by a 12,000 lb torque electric motor engineered to move even dense aggregate smoothly and with minimal operator strain.
Crossbars spaced 8 inches apart provide aggressive traction on loose materials, allowing the conveyor to unload gravel evenly and safely—especially useful when spreading into driveways or tight spaces.
Safety shear bolts protect the system against overload and keep maintenance simple.
The conveyor floor allows operators to unload gravel without raising the trailer fully—reducing risk on slopes, soft ground, or uneven driveways.
Belted Live Floor Option for High-Flow Material Movement
HAULIT’s belted live floor system, proven in agricultural and bulk-handling environments, provides a smooth, continuous unload of gravel and rock.
This option reduces material bridging and allows operators to meter the unload rate precisely—ideal for customers who require controlled placement rather than a single dump pile.
Electric Over Hydraulic Front Lift Ram
For full dumps, the HAULIT gravel trailer uses a 12,000 lb electric-over-hydraulic lift ram designed for maximum lifting strength.
Unlike scissor-lift systems found on cheaper dump trailers, HAULIT’s side-mounted cylinders offer:
More stable lifting
Fewer mechanical stress points
Better performance under heavy shifting loads
This ensures gravel is dumped safely without compromising trailer stability.
Industrial Rear Roller Casters
Dumping gravel can place pressure on driveway edges and concrete pads. HAULIT installs industrial roller casters at the rear to protect the surface during tilt operations, preventing gouges or cracks.
LED Lighting
All wiring is routed through steel or conduit for protection from gravel impact and debris. DOT-compliant LED lighting ensures reliable performance in dusty, rugged outdoor environments where visibility is essential.
Stake Pocket Side Rails
Whether hauling bulk gravel, bagged rock, or aggregate pallets, operators can secure loads quickly using the integrated stake pockets and full-length tie-down rails.
Vertical extensions allow for increased material capacity during large stone or bulk aggregate hauls.
Diamond Plate Bolt-On Fenders
Gravel delivery is hard on equipment, especially fenders.
HAULIT uses rugged diamond-plate bolt-on fenders that resist impact and can be easily replaced if damaged—keeping the trailer looking professional and ready for residential or commercial delivery.
Spare Tire Mount + Protective Powder Coat
Each trailer includes a secure spare tire mount and is finished with a high-performance powder coating applied over an etched primer.
This coating helps prevent rust from moisture, gravel spray, and road salt—significantly extending the trailer’s working life.
Powder Coating and Painting
No one likes a rusty trailer! HAULIT trailers are powder coated using superior painting and/or powder coating technologies with an etched primer and topcoat for protective finish and long lasting durability!
Reliable Zerks
Reliability is a top priority. Instead of rusting, squeaking, or seizing up, grease zerks are provided on every moving part that needs grease ensures years of smooth operation!

Admittedly, my road to get my current trailer was a little rocky, but ultimately, I am completely satisfied. Here is a bit about my story: I purchased my trailer from them for the purpose of delivering and unloading multiple pallets of pavers and wall block at a time. The weights of these pallets are on the extreme end for sure. They were able to get a trailer to me right away after ordering it. The first trailer I received experienced several problems and was not working as I had hoped for its intended use. When I reached out to the folks at Haulit, they were very receptive and wanted to make things right immediately. Being a first time customer, I was a little shocked at their willingness to help. It seems so many manufacturers nowadays don't have a strong commitment to customer satisfaction. Not only did Haulit make modifications to the new trailer to better suit my needs, but they even came to me and swapped it out. No small task being that they are 12.5 hours away from me. I have now been using the replacement trailer for several months and really pushing it hard with zero issues whatsoever. These trailers make delivering pallets of even very heavy product a breeze. Haulit has also implemented several of these changes into their ongoing design to make an even better product. Huge thanks to the Haulit team members and ownership. You are a breathe of fresh air in the manufacturing world and other manufacturers should take note.

Frequently Asked Questions
Gravel trailers are workhorses for construction crews, landscapers, and delivery businesses who need to move bulk materials efficiently. Common applications include:
- Residential driveway gravel delivery and spreading
- Construction site aggregate and sand delivery
- Landscaping material distribution (mulch, topsoil, decorative stone)
- Concrete block and paver delivery to tight spaces
- Small equipment transport (walk-behind tools, side-by-sides)
- Debris removal and cleanup services
The HAULIT Workhorse goes beyond basic gravel hauling – it handles everything from fine sand and decorative stone to heavy aggregate and construction debris with precision placement that protects your customer’s property.
The Workhorse handles up to 12,000 lbs of cargo weight, which translates to substantial gravel loads that maximize your earning potential per trip. Your actual gravel capacity depends on the material type and your truck’s towing capacity, but you’ll consistently move more material than lightweight alternatives. Typical gravel loads by truck type:
- Half-ton pickup: 6,000 lbs of gravel (handles nicely for residential work)
- One-ton truck: 12,000 lbs of gravel (maximum trailer capacity for heavy commercial work)
Every HAULIT Workhorse comes with a 6-month warranty covering parts and manufacturing defects, which is significantly longer than the typical 10-90 day warranties offered by most trailer manufacturers. This comprehensive coverage reflects our confidence in the trailer’s durability and gives you peace of mind knowing your investment is protected during the critical first year of operation.
The Workhorse is rated for 10,000 lbs of cargo weight with a 14,000 lb gross vehicle weight rating across dual 7,000 lb axles. This substantial capacity handles heavy gravel loads safely without compromising performance or requiring CDL licensing when properly matched with your towing vehicle. The robust construction with ¼” steel frame and 3/16″ walls ensures the trailer maintains structural integrity even under maximum loads.
Absolutely!
Gravel delivery is a consistent money-maker, especially with the right equipment. Small to medium-sized gravel jobs are everywhere, from residential driveways to commercial site prep, and many contractors avoid them because traditional equipment makes these deliveries unprofitable. The Workhorse changes that equation by cutting operation time in half while reducing labor costs.
The profit potential comes from efficiency and versatility. You’ll complete more deliveries per day, take on jobs that competitors can’t handle profitably, and build a reputation for precise, damage-free delivery that commands premium pricing. Many HAULIT owners report that the trailer pays for itself within the first year through increased delivery capacity and expanded service offerings.
