    So I just got a job hauling Gravel in a side dump to a road construction site and this is my 1st time driving a side dump and I was wondering how to dump the gravel without getting stuck all the time, sometimes they want me to dump it on the go like a belly dump and other times I'm just stuck piling thanks for the help

    Same way as hauling big nasty crap, angle your truck a little towards the side your dumping on, dump, and back out of it.

    As with all dump trucks, lockers are your friends.
