dump trailer all-in-one price/viability

[Sparkeee24]

Howdy! I have another curiosity... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Have any of you seen the flatbed trailers, with 1/2 of the trailer a side dump, and the back half a flatbed. when loaded, the front part has tons of material, and the tractor is on the back half with the loader resting on teh material within the front half. You drive tractor off the back, and dump material from front part, off the side. I have seen one of these, and it was pretty slick. It may have been home made, but it was awesome. Probably about 16 ft long without the tongue. Maybee homemade, but looked awesome, and I saw it work. It looked like it had mobile home axles maybee. I was thinking of building something similar. Any body else seen something like this?

Sure seems like it would have a lot of tongue weight, especially after you unloaded the tractor to dump your load.

Contact Anderson trailers . They may custom make the size for you. a 6x10 low profile 12K capacity was $4500. Well made.
