More than a Dump Trailer

A dump trailer is a specialized hauling solution designed with a hydraulic lifting system that allows the bed to be raised at one end, efficiently emptying the contents through gravity. Unlike standard trailers, these trailers eliminate the need for manual unloading, saving significant time and labor costs while providing precise material placement.

These versatile tools have become essential equipment in construction, landscaping, and agricultural industries, where the ability to transport and efficiently unload bulk materials like gravel, soil, mulch, and debris directly impacts productivity and profitability. The best dump trailers, like our Workhorse models, combine this functionality with additional features that expand their usefulness beyond simple dumping tasks.

The standard Workhorse dump trailer features a cargo weight capacity of 9,600 pounds with a 14K tandem axle rating (GAWR) and a 12K load/unload system rating. This makes it ideal for most commercial and residential applications, with the ability to carry up to 6 cubic yards of bulk materials or 3 standard-sized pallets (48″x48″).

The Workhorse XL dump trailer offers enhanced capacity with the ability to handle larger loads for more demanding applications. With its extended dimensions, the XL model can accommodate up to 5 pallets or 8 cubic yards of bulk material. Both models are purposely engineered to meet the 26,000 lb. GVWR requirement, allowing operation by drivers without CDL licensing in most situations.

Starting a dump trailer business is one of the most accessible ways to enter the contracting and delivery industries with relatively low startup costs. With a single Workhorse trailer, entrepreneurs can launch profitable operations in several high-demand niches with minimal additional equipment required.

Junk removal services represent one of the most straightforward business models. Property owners, contractors, and real estate professionals constantly need debris and waste removal services that traditional garbage collection doesn’t address. With a trailer, you can efficiently collect, transport, and dispose of materials from renovation projects, estate cleanouts, and property maintenance jobs while charging premium rates for this specialized service.

Landscaping material delivery presents another lucrative opportunity. Landscape suppliers and garden centers often lack efficient delivery options for bulk materials like mulch, soil, gravel, and decorative stone. With the Workhorse trailer’s precise placement capabilities, you can offer superior service compared to traditional delivery methods, commanding higher rates while completing more deliveries per day due to faster unloading times.
