I have noticed the nicest trucks out on the road are majority dump trailer trucks... I am wondering what kind of money does this trailer bring in... How are the runs how is the industry... Is there companies to lease on to ? Is there a market in the nj ny pa ct north easy region ? I always compare the trucks to the industry if I see a nice truck I know they must be making money... Please if you could answer my questions that would be wonderful... I know people will say it sucks but if that's true why the nice trucks... Please be honest with your info... If you give a man a fish he will eat for a day you teach a man to fish he will eat a life time ....

Anyone can have a NICE TRUCK regardless of what they pull , I have seen show winning CONTAINER haulers , just need to willing to put time & $ into your truck to keep it up mechanically and in appearance

Dump trailer doesn't pay enough.......lol
Around me the hourly rate is $100...that's a 6 axle permited at 107k..... Most jobs are by the ton thou...
You can get by if your near the top of the list at a good pit/quarry... But it's a hard deal. -
you are paid extra due to the wet line/kit that is on the truck to operate the end dump. pulling an end dump is much more specialized than pulling a reefer or a dry box or even a flat bed.two line wet kits add more value as you have a high/low speed pump thereby enabling you to pull more even more specialized trailers.
i pull both aluminum and steel end dumps as well as walking floor and about to pull roll off type trailers. the products vary.i thoroughly enjoy pulling an end dump as you get priority in loading and unloading and the hours are tolerable.at my age,i do not care to drive all night so the hours at the shippers/consignees suit my schedule although many places are 24/7.Last edited: Dec 9, 2014

Trucking is what you make it. There is no get rich quick area. There are some good rates in dumps but don't confuse it to mean it's just extra money that the rest aren't getting. Thing to remember is if money was really good or work is really easy everybody would want to do it. I assure you

He probably doesn't realize the probability of turning a truck over increases drastically. Or that something's don't just slide out when you raise the bed
x#1 Thanks this. -
he needs to pull one to experience just that. ain't nothing like the feeling it's about to go over or when the product is stuck and the wind is picking up-
