#Best #Dump #Trailers
Today on all about trailers we are launching a 2 part series on dump trailer.
We want to find out which dump trailer hoist system is the best.

SCISSOR LIFT DUMP TRAILER -
This type of hoist system uses two arms to apply a hard initial push. The first six inches are the hardest part of the lift for any dump trailer. As the angle of the dump bed increases, force is traded for speed to give a slightly faster dump cycle as compared to the other two systems.
These are built beefier to brace the scissor lift but when you overload this trailer with a lot of weight in the center or front it will struggle because the load is being pushed from the center.
DUAL RAM DUMP TRAILER -
this system is tried and true. People have been using this setup before I was born. These are overpowered. Unlike the Scissor lift, this dump trailer doesn’t sacrifice speed for it’s power. The Dual Ram Dump Trailers have a reinforced frame to handle the power of the two cylinders. As a result you have a system that is a lot stronger than the scissor lift. If you don’t even out your loads there is no worry with this system because it has the lifting force in the center and can handle the weight no matter where the brute force of the load is because of the dual rams pushing.
TELESCOPIC (FRONT END) DUMP TRAILER -
These are the newest technology in our trailer line. This has been a very reliable model on Semi Trailers and we have ported it over to our gooseneck and bumper pull lines. Because it lifts from the front end of the trailer, this type of hoist has the best lifting power in the long run over the weight of the load. The trailer’s hydraulic system and the cylinder itself have less strain on it than the rest of our dump lines.
Not to mention because of the footprint of this system and the amount of bracing and strength that have to be put in for the other systems you come out with a trailer that is about 1000 pounds lighter than the others.
This is by far the best design and function you can get in a dump trailer. When you overload this or have an uneven load something else on this trailer will break before this telescopic hoist will.
