Rock trucks, also known as articulated dump trucks, are rigid dump trucks that are specifically designed to handle the heavy loads of materials from mines, quarries, gravel pits, and construction sites. Made to be used off-road, these heavy-duty haulers can handle the roughest terrain.

Bottom (Belly) Dump Truck Hauling

Bottom dump trucks are perfect for precision when laying materials. It has a "clamshell" gate that releases materials from the bottom, or rather the belly of the trailer. This is usually a 3-axle tractor pulling a 2-axle trailer with the dump gate for the belly. Bottom dump trucks are highly maneuverable as well.

Double / Triple Bottom Dump Truck Hauling

Double / Triple Bottom Dump Trucks are perfect for hauling groups of materials. They have single-axle semi-trailer dumpers attached to the primary vehicle, however they are difficult to maneuver in tight spots.

End Dump Truck Shipping

An end dump truck has a tractor-trailer combo where the trailer contains its own hydraulic system. This allows loads to be weighted more on the container, rather than the truck bed. However, this can make an end dump truck unstable, so the dumping position is often limited.

Haul Truck Shipping

Haul Trucks are mostly used in quarries and mines. Their payload capacity goes up to 450 tons. Haul Trucks usually have diesel-electric powertrains, but some have diesel engines paired with mechanical powertrains. Rigid frames and conventional steering are staples of haul trucks.

Off-Highway Dump Truck Hauling

Off-highway dump trucks have two primary frames: articulating and rigid. These trucks are used for off-road mining and heavy dirt jobs. Rarely do off-way dump trucks look like a regular highway dump truck. Their unique design and heavy duty capabailities make them popular for hard jobs.

Roll-Off Dump Truck Transport

Roll-off dump truck drops empty dumpsters at a job site and then comes to pick it back up when ready. It has a hoist and subframe, but it does not have a body. The dump container is loaded onto the truck with a winch and cable. Roll-off dump trucks are versatile for a variety of different industries.

Side Dump Truck Transport

Side dump trucks, also known as SDT, have hydraulic rams that tilt the dump body to the side, spilling material on either side of the truck. This allows for rapid unloading and has the advantage of not tipping over unless the dump is stopped prematurely. Side dump trucks can haul almost any materials, making it extremely versatile.

Standard Dump Truck Transport

Standard dump trucks have chasses or base frames with a mounted bed. There may be a vertical hydraulic ram mounted under the front body or a horizontal hydraulic ram and lever system between the frame rails, allowing the bed to be raised for dumping materials. A standard dump tailgate can swing up on top hinges or it may have a “high lift tailgate” where pneumatic rams lift the gate up and over the dump body.

Super Dump Truck Transport

Super dump trucks are able to carry up to 80,000lbs of materials. Thanks to a trailing axle and load bearing axle that allows for much heavier loads, this type of dump truck still meets the federal bridge formula standard. This is often seen in construction for asphalt and concrete paving.

Transfer Dump Truck

Transfer dump trucks have standard dump trucks at the base and pulls a separate movable container on the trailer. Transfar dump trucks are commonly seen at construction sites, because it has greater capacity and great great maneuverability.

Truck and Pup Shipping

Pup dump trucks are very similar to a transfer dump truck. Instead of just being a standard dump truck, the dump truck pulls a second dump trailer. Usually a pump trailer with a hydraulic ram that's capable of self-unloading.
