2027 Trident Trailer built when ordered 40 cubic yard volume.

8 foot wide and 60" tall are way more likely to rollover than 7 foot wide and 50" sides. Keep your CG (Center of Gravity) low and in the center!

Who uses a 60 yard box to haul 30 yards of rock? This trailer is about 50% to big for this job.

Lightest-Strongest End Dump in America weighs 8,490 pounds!

2027 Trident Trailer 30 ft tri-axle 30 cubic yard, 8 aluminum wheels on the scales at the factory right now! 8,490 pounds!

7 foot wide vs 8 foot = Stronger, safer to dump as CG is in center.

50'' sides vs 60'' = Stronger Easier to load safer to dump.

No Crank landing gear = 300 lbs. in weight savings.

Rounded nose = Saves 400 lbs. and improves aerodynamics.

The 2027 Trident is the lightest, strongest, most aerodynamic trailer available for hauling sand, rock, coal and limestone.

It's also the worst trailer for hauling light objects like corn, auto fluff
and beans, as it's way too small.

Some jobs require 60 cubic yards and some require 30. A trailer that is 50% smaller but only 30% lighter is stronger! Pick the right tool for the job to maximize your money!

Brand New Trident 30 Foot Tri Axle being picked up at the factory headed straight to the customers home.

This 5K (cheater axle) gives you 6 axles vs 5 which in a lot of states allows you to haul 80,000 lbs. while not needing to be as long. Here are some reasons drivers choose a 30 ft tri over a 39 foot tandem.

Easier to maneuver:
A lot of sand haulers will need to get into residential areas and golf courses. A 30 ft is easier to maneuver in that situation than a 39 foot which is why a 30 foot tri axle is popular for this job.

Safer to Dump:
Dumping on a 1 degree lateral slope with a 30 foot trailer causes the top to move 6.38 inches to one side while a 39 foot moves 8.16 inches. On a 3 degree slope the 30 foot trailer is 19 inches and the 39 foot is 24.48 inches. Always dump on level ground but if a driver does dump on a slope the 30 foot is less likely to rollover.

Weight:
Our 30 foot Tri is 700 lbs. more than a 39 foot tandem. So while it is a good option if you will be driving long routes mainly on the highway a 39 foot might be better. In fact in some states a 39 foot spread is a lot better because you can go over 80,000 lbs.

Picking the wrong trailer for your route, material you haul and your state laws will / can lower your profits. If you are looking to buy an end dump take the time to look at your laws and route and then purchase the best one for that job!

Everyone loves the story of Santa.
But the truth is, Christmas doesn’t arrive by magic.
It shows up on steel wheels, through snow, traffic, deadlines, and long nights away from home.
While families gather, drivers are still rolling.
While lights are lit, freight is still moving.
This season, remember who really carries Christmas.
Thank a trucker.

So what's better a 20 foot shipping container or a 40 foot? Depends, a 20ft container suits dense, heavy goods, while the 40-feet container dimensions are ideal for bulkier, lighter items. Hmm...

But what if I put wheels under the 20 foot container? Does it suddenly become junk for being 50% smaller and 32% lighter? Some people might say if it aint a 40 ft Mac take it back. lol
