Dump trailers have been used in various forms since the early 1900s. In fact, August Fruehauf invented a dump trailer for a semi in 1914. He obtained military contracts during World War I. He introduced hydraulics in his dump trailers in the early 1920s, including hydraulic lift gates and hydraulic winches. Hydraulics are still used in most dump trailers today.
There are several types of dump trailers available. One type is the end dump trailer. These trailers operate similarly to a dump truck, except that they are typically longer and are pulled by a separate semi truck. The biggest advantage to using a end dump trailer is that they can be unloaded very quickly.
Another type of dump trailer is the belly dump. These trailers typically have two axles. The material is typically dumped from the bottom of the trailer in a line. One advantage of a belly dump trailer is that it can be maneuvered well while backing up. The gates in the bottom of the trailer generally open to the left and right, but the cross spread type of belly dump has gates that open to the front and back. This allows material to be spread more evenly under the trailer. Belly dump trailers can be single, double or triple, but double and triple units should not be used to spread material while the truck is in reverse.
There are many amenities that can be available in dump trailers, so look carefully at the description to make sure the trailer you purchase has everything you want and need in a dump trailer.
