This was really helpful. I became a dump truck driver after finishing over the road with FedEx groin and hauling double and triples. Now I am driving a truck and pup tomorrow and have no clue. This video was really helpful. Thank you!

Remember to unlock your locks before tipping up your box that way the pressure of the load won't be stuck it into your box liftgate because that may result in getting your door latches stuck and causing them not to open up

I was wondering how you guys dumped those. Now I know, great job.

That is 10000% not how to do it

Thank you. The boss bought a pup dump trailer. I never used one before. This helped a lot.

after a while he will get the hang of it, just take some practise :)

Now I know how they work. 👍👍

This drivers truck is a Triaxle Lift. And his Pony is a Dual Axle. His weights will be less than mine, but it work the same. Nice Job Driver.. Also, Mine has a Liner in the box, this one does not. He risks at certain temperatures of the load sticking inside. I can place Calcium inside mine and it should stop the stick when temps drop below 32 and more.

Nice that was awesome, i thought u would have to drop the pup trailer lol

Was there a earthquake?

The pup should have been more at a 90 degree angle before he dumped and after he dumped he should have cleaned off the trailer hitch and the arm u never drive off before clearing all the material off the trlr arm I am sure he will get better at it just needs more practice

How much u clear a year on avg with that dump truck ?

Nice moves

nice pup trailer dumping...

👍

I cant imagine how many mud flaps a guy could rip off in his first week running a rig like this

In 6 months I haven't taken any off. But then again they've been on back orders since the last guy (who is no longer employed) left.

Well, same vehicle, different name. Down here in the Great Southern Land, we call those trailers 'pig trailers' and no, I don't know why.

I always wondered the same thing, then after years of tandem and pup dumping I, still wonder how the hell I dumped them. Transfers are the worst sort of dumps.

Jack it a bit sharper than that and you'll get more of your lead pile behind the tongue and not be running over it with the pup after. Try to dump like that with some big stone you may end up wishing you hadn't. Then again the tongue on that one looks a lot shorter than the one I run so that may not even make the difference.

Yep. I learned the importance of that. Digging stones from between the duals on the pup gets old fast.

Man I've never drove one with a pup but was telling myself that, jack knife the pup a bit more so you don't run over the pile..

I really don’t think that’s the way to do it correctly

what is the price going on those types of trucks? far as hourly or load?

@brandonharris9618

DA RUDE 1 most company's will charge per load and how far they travel with it. Unless your need the truck and driver and will be loading it with your own material than its hourly

one guy in the comments here calls it a pig, the title says pup, I just started driving a 3 axle version of the same thing here in BC canada, where everyone calls its a pony!

Need to clean off the hitch after dumping.....Might break a windshield..

How much legally can the truck and trailer haul

That can probably only axle out at 80K GVW or so. It only has a two axle pup. I used to operate a 5 axle truck with a 4 axle pup and could go 105,500. I once scaled a load of rock from a jobsite back to the pit that was 136,400 GVW. I was slighly heavy on that one. Truck and pups are fast in the turn around time which is a nice plus. One more load a day per truck adds up over time. My rig was just over 40K empty and the newer KW's we had were closer to 36 IIRC.

Want 1

The Dump I drive is a Dual Steer 2005 Sterling which is 4 axles, but they call it a Tri-Axle. I also have a Pony or the wagon on the back that is also a Triaxle. My total weight for the 2 combined is 42.5 Tonnes which is more than the 53' ( Footer ) Tandem Tandem Tractor Trailer. If I just run my lead, my total weight for the 1 unit is 21.5 Tonnes.

I keept wondering why the hell those trailer are so long .. now I know 😅

Sloppy and in a rush. No reason why your pup should be hitting the pile, probably because you literately backed it over the plle. Also driving away putting down your box will bite you in the ass one day. From a fellow "professional" driver

That was definitely not the way to run a pup

What a stupid setup .. buy a semi

@ih6601

No it’s not a stupid setup. These trucks are more versatile. If they have to go to a small job site, they can disconnect the pup trailer and just use the dump truck. If it’s a bigger job site and/or a longer haul, they can hook up the pup trailer to haul more. Furthermore these turn better than regular semi’s.
