The easiest way I found in a case like that, is to open up your gate, back up real fast and slam on the brakes to get enough off to wear your dump will raise enough to dump the rest,oh and get you an battery powered leaf blower,they work great for cleaning off trailer

That’s a good idea if it works. Yes, I have one now. It’s very handy.

That loader driver at the quarry needs to be a little more considerate of your trailer. He needs to square up with trailer so he’s not dumping gravel on your fenders etc.

I wish mine would dump more than it’s rated for. My next trailer will be telescopic.

Nice

You are very lucky you didnt bend an axle let alone blow a tire. I started with a 14k trailer and upgraded to a 24k trailer just to be sure that I couldnt overload it and I dont do it as a business. You really need to upgrade if you want to avoid a big problem in the future.

I am sure I would have it I had taken it on the highway. This trailer will do enough to get me started. Maybe in a year or two I will be ready to upgrade. I would love to get a roll off dumpster trailer or truck.

Yeah, that loader driver is a jackass,me and him would’ve had some problems. They tried that one time with me at one at our quarry and let’s say things got really heated!🤬

How often do you charge your battery?

@gaylorpropertyservice

I usually charge after 2 or 3 days of continuous use. It will probably do 15-20 or so dumps in a charge. Less in the winter.

How much are you making per load of rock delivered?

I charge $125 for delivery fee. Actual profit depends on how much fuel and time it takes.
