Dump Trailer Concern

[LittleBill21]

I am considering buying this, this week, has anyone used one of these? the rear panel has me concerned since if you put enough weight against it, I assume I will struggle to remove the gate/ ramp?

I wish it had doors, but it seems like only larger models do, and this is about the weight limit I can handle right now,

any suggestions?

<p>4.5x8 Utility Dump, The little dump trailer is tougher than it looks. While I appears to be an off-road type trailer, this unit is completely DOT road legal. In fact, due to the 2990# GVW, it does not require annual inspection (in Pennsylvania anyway). It comes with a deep cycle marine battery an

I have no knowledge on that dump trailer but a Friend has one of the sure-trac utility trailers and he has commented it is a light duty trailer compared to PJ and Load Trail sold at same dealer ship.

The load trail version of this trailer is 200 pounds less and 500 pounds less payload...

those ramps look like they would be slicker than owl ---- when wet be careful

Carry a shovel & clear the panel for removal. If you're really worried about it, you could probably fab up some doors & weld them on, but you'd lose a "ramp" if that matters. The Ramps look too slick & light duty for me, but might be ok for a garden tractor in dry conditions.

I recommend you move up to the 5'x8' way more features.

If your just using it in your yard I would leave the rear (gate, ramp) off.

they have some kind of coating, but I don't plan to use them I have a utility trailer for loading

What happens when you get a dead battery? How do you get to it to recharge it?
