Need a little info on end dumps

Nah you don't need anything but special. What you do need is a good level spot to dump, longer the wagon more level you need be. Also a little faith cause there are only 2 types of end dump drivers those that have abd those that will tip the tub.

 

Gave a fella my rate to haul his end dump w/ my truck, to much, two days later called and said his driver flopped his over, went to work with side dump the next day, It happens

 

Be careful on the rates..... A lot of dump work pays very little, and is hard on the trucks.

But at least your home....

 

Did frameless end dump for 4 months in Arizona. Frameless are the tippiest kind. Make sure you have someone coaching you through a few dumps before you go solo. Held my breath the first couple of weeks, developed more confidence after time. Most dumps were deliveries to cement block manufacturers and they had level cement surfaced dump sites. A few loads were cinders for highway use and they got dumped on storage sites beside the road. Where I was uncertain I got out a level and laid it on the back axle. If its level and the surface is solid you're good. Make sure you don't back the trailer up on some loose material. Have a loader go over the surface and scrape away loose stuff so your down to packed dirt or gravel. Another thing to watch is wet sand or gravel getting frozen in winter and not pouring...if it breaks loose in an uneven way you are going over. I enjoyed it as a change of pace. Ran downhill from Flagstafff to Phoenix once or twice and day and then crawled back up them. With dump trailers you only haul one kind of load---maxxed out. What I hated was crawlin' up on the trailer to free up the tarp when it get hung up or in a bind, and shoveling snow and ice out of the trailer when we had a major snow event. You have to take the tarps off when you have a heavy snow or it can rip 'em. It was one of those priceless life experiences that I am glad is over.
