    Unfortunately, depending on the location especially, that wouldn't be considered secured if there were no tarp during transit. The debris and small stones, believe it or not, do get sucked out and flung by the air currents passing over that dump body, so it is supposed to be covered when on a public road (although his pic shows it at the dumpsite), the exception being, if it is in a work area, like a closed off road construction area with it's own dumping area. Been there and done that. :)

    Not a very good picture, but I thought for a moment @Ruthless had made a wrong turn and ended up in Kentucky.

    This ol trailer has plenty of scars from dumping stuff like this off. Still make me cringe though.

    “straps” and “tarped” sound like the same word to me…. And I ain’t got neither on this trailer…

    This trailer dont even have a tarp. Once it pays for itself a bit more she’s gettin a roll out mesh tarp.
