One thing about walking floors against a tipper is the speed of unload which with a 40ftr W/F with about 75 cube of saw dust can take me up to 45 mins to drop as opposed to five in a tipper. If u have the curtain it sweeps itself mostly clean but yeah it's a lOng unload. It just has niche benefits like you can put more material In
A smaller space as it's pushes out higher and. U can reverse them so u can drop half loads and back the rest in to get weight over drives but these are really niche type pro's that wouldn't really apply to your job so I'm with everyone else in saying a tipper is the way to go.

Ditto,I pull a 53' walking floor, usually takes me about 30 minutes to unload.
I can unload inside barns and other buildings and places where a tipper can't so that's an advantage but it's not fast.
