Nice job. You always come up with good ideas when making modifications to your equipment. Like the fuel door on your enclosed trailer. Enjoy your channel.
I know you are pumped for fall clean up season. It might be a good idea to add those 2x4’s along the top just to eliminate the sharp/rough edges created by the vertical posts and edges of the plywood that my wear a hole in your tarp. Your videos are always informative. I like seeing how other peoples minds work. It helps me fine tune my plans with less trial and error.
i just put mine on today its on a ez dump insert its still working i think its 3 years old now just been sitting out side i sprayed it with water seal make sure you do that it will make it last longer
nice job my friend..I have similar setup with a smaller billy goat not shown set up yet..I used deck boards and a m esh tarp with two half doors similar to yours..trailer is 12'
When it comes time to dump, I'm assuming the door with the loader on it also opens. Will you disconnect the loader from the yellow hose on the interior of the trailer? Great video, love the detail.
The pipe is loosely fit so it comes off when the door is opened. I have changed it since this video and it is now clamped to the end of Billy Goat Tube and opens with the door.
How did it do with the dust? I currently have the 37hp Billy Goat, an with the 12/1 compaction it creates and blows a insae amount of dust up right through the mesh top. Leaves a terrible mess of dust on the ground/ more importantly the operator. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Great video.
Why didn’t you mount the vacuum towards the front end of the trailer ? Above the battery box.. Seems like it’s easier to unload if the vacuum isn’t near the back as it’s a dump trailer.
Hello, I'm interested in starting my power tool lineup was between Kobalt & Ridgid would you recommend Ridgid tools? I see your circular saw it looks stout. I've heard about the LSA warranty program which has me sold. The old octane batteries I know were bulletproof unfortunately they no longer make octane, but Ridgid still seems worth the investment with the warranty alone.
Great video! When I get my tip dumpster I'm following your lead to the T! Question for you, will this dump be specific to spring and fall cleanups? If not will you be taking the walls off for spring/summer months? Thanks, again great video.
If you wanted to use it with high sides year round, it would be easier to buy it with high sides. I use it to haul mulch, gravel, and other loads with the short sides and use the side extensions in the Fall/Winter for leaf removal.
My guy.... you TOTALLY get it. This is the best leaf trailer built. Great job!

Good idea, thank you.
Appreciate the content I like to build and I am definitely going to follow your design when I get ready to spend the money! Dirty hands clean money
Thank you
its gunna take you all of leaf season to pay for that lumber XD nice build
That is no joke! It was almost $900 in materials, crazy.
@2:25 wow wish I had went with load trail just for that reason. My 16’ PJ doesn’t.
Your definitely ready for the leaf season now
Hopefully lol
i just put mine on today its on a ez dump insert its still working i think its 3 years old now just been sitting out side i sprayed it with water seal make sure you do that it will make it last longer
Appreciate the advice, thank you.
Very nice looking trailer 👍
Thank you
This is great thank you! Can you share what the thickness of the playwood is? Also, is it treated?
It's 3/4" plywood and all the lumber and plywood are treated.
@@HandyGuy2016 A thousand thanks! Much appreciated!

esh tarp with two half doors similar to yours..trailer is 12'
Nice 👍
@@HandyGuy2016 love my loadtrail..bought back in 2018 when trailers where reasonably priced..No issues yet😉👍
@@bluewall9410 good to hear, they seem really well built.
You must be able to take blower off to dump?
The blower is mounted to the door and swings out to the side to dump. I have other videos of this setup, demonstrating how it works.
Thank you for making these?
When it comes time to dump, I'm assuming the door with the loader on it also opens. Will you disconnect the loader from the yellow hose on the interior of the trailer? Great video, love the detail.
Yes, that is correct.
Thanks for sharing. How much debris do you get blown out of the back end where the mesh tarp has a gap?
Very little debris, mostly dust. I got a longer mesh tarp to close the gap which helps also.
Nice setup. How does the door open connected to the yellow/black pipe?
The pipe is loosely fit so it comes off when the door is opened. I have changed it since this video and it is now clamped to the end of Billy Goat Tube and opens with the door.
@@HandyGuy2016 got it. Thanks!! I’ve got a vac on a dump but need to make the sides bigger 🤪 and this is great inspiration!
GOOD STUFF!
Thank you brother
Why did you decide to mount the bully goat onto the door closer to the road versus the curb?
À lot of the time I'm solo, so I pull up to the pile on my side and saves me time.
@@HandyGuy2016 oh ok, that makes sense. Actually a really good idea!
What size goat is that? Where did you get the hanging bracket sir?
35 HP, I built the mount.
How did it do with the dust? I currently have the 37hp Billy Goat, an with the 12/1 compaction it creates and blows a insae amount of dust up right through the mesh top. Leaves a terrible mess of dust on the ground/ more importantly the operator. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Great video.
I have not figured out a way around that yet.
Park the loader upwind
Use weather stripping in the gaps.
Why didn’t you mount the vacuum towards the front end of the trailer ? Above the battery box..
Seems like it’s easier to unload if the vacuum isn’t near the back as it’s a dump trailer.
I did a lot of research and talked to a lot of guys running dump trailer/vacuum setups, and the majority prefer rear mount vacuums.
Hi, did you use treated or non treated plywood and lumber to build your leaf box? By the way very nice setup!!!
Thank you and everything is treated and holding up great.

I highly recommend Ridgid, both electric and cordless.
What size hose do I need for the Billy goat discharge?
Mine is 8" I believe, but it will depend on the unit you have.
The trailer will only fill up to the end of your hose. I think you will have issues getting a full trailer great build
That is very possible, I will find out this Fall and make adjustments as needed.
Great video! When I get my tip dumpster I'm following your lead to the T! Question for you, will this dump be specific to spring and fall cleanups? If not will you be taking the walls off for spring/summer months? Thanks, again great video.
I use the trailer all year, so this is just a Fall/Winter setup, then it all gets removed for Spring/Summer.
Man, what a great idea; how did you attach the Billy Goat to your trailer?

What size billy goat is that?
35hp
Well thought out design Bud👍what interest rate did you get on the lumber loan?🤣
😂😂😂 Almost had to get one lol.
Nice
Do you have a crew or do you work alone?
Just my Son and I, sometimes solo when he is busy.
Still using this setup .????
I got out of the business this year but I was still using it.
@HandyGuy2016 still have it.? For sale???
@HandyGuy2016 why out of business?? Seems like perfect setup??
@RockyTopSplash The dump trailer is.
@HandyGuy2016 how much you want for it??
I think it's easier to buy a trailer with higher walls than to do that
If you wanted to use it with high sides year round, it would be easier to buy it with high sides. I use it to haul mulch, gravel, and other loads with the short sides and use the side extensions in the Fall/Winter for leaf removal.
looks dangerous.
How do you mean?
Mm
