Some good comments being made in the comments, but they're still limiting their thinking - with a "flat deck" one can effectively palletise* other plant as well. Think large welders, large emergency pumps, emergency generators, etc, that are too small, and or light, for a "J" or shipping container platform to be required or cost effective. Hire companies and government/state/municipal/utility companies may be a natural market for these. *As a kid I was enamoured with the whole Thunderbird 2 concept - use a standardised container and you can use the same machine to move everything. I still try and apply it to plant in general, when allowed.
@@Dirtmonkey A concept that has ran thru my mind about this style trailer is to have a half flat deck and half enclosed setup. That was you could use the back half that is flat to load or transport material to the jobsite or as stated put a large pump or welder on and use the front enclosed area as a mobile job box to store and secure tools this could even be fitted with a fuel tank to allow on site fuel, tool, and storage.
It would be nice to see if the company can build you a sealed, lockable Job Box roll-off. When doing a job like a retaining wall, you can deliver the box to the site first with all the necessary hand tools, power tools, basic supplies, and the small plate compactores. Everything you need at once and a secure place to store the equipment at night. At the end of a job, pick it up and move it to the next.
I purchased one of these 4 years ago w/3 containers. Put ads in all the papers, online, created a website with online booking, Google reviews, etc. Something you'll learn quickly, you can't compete with the larger recycling companies nearby. I sold it 6 months later and bought a mini excavator. That's where you make money. Good luck if you venture down this path but realize, stiff competition exists. I'd love to see your financials for a year.
I'm third generation in the solid waste industry aka garbage man...lol. In 1960 my twin uncles had built the very first Roll Off truck. They called it a Drop Box truck with 20 yard boxes. My uncles worked for their mother, my grandmother who owned the the first garbage company in town. She only invested in the build of the truck and didn't patent the Drop Box idea back then. !!!CAUTION STANLEY!!! I drove a Roll Off back in the 80's for 11 years and the one thing you had to watch out for was boxes loaded to one side with dirt or concrete, they flip over on there side when loading on the truck. I would pound the sides of the box and if it sounded hard it was loaded heavy to one side and you couldn't see it for each load was full of other debris and tarped. Even at that. be careful on turns, they will roll over easy if loaded heavy on one side. I could show you all kinds of tricks we used to do loading/off loading in difficult areas. But I live in California 🤐don't tell anyone!
Great video, there is a company from Minnesota that makes nothing but these types of trailers. Protainer out of Alexandria. MN. We have some of the best trailer makers in the country. You would have saved yourself lots of fuel. The plus side with Protainer is that they're containers can be used on any standard roll off truck as well. If I'm not mistaken, they're the only company that uses standardized boxes. You could use the same box on a trailer that you put on the truck and then you could also buy it containers from other manufacturers as long as they were a standard rail box. Plus if you want more cans/containers you just have to drive to Alexandria which I'm sure no matter where you live in Minnesota is closer to you than Texas.
My experience has been on the consumer end of the business, getting a dumpster for remodeling jobs. My projects are usually on the smaller side so I can often handle things with my single axle dump trailer. The last time I had to price dumpsters I called three ‘different’ carting companies and the same person answered the phone each time. All three were owned by the same parent company. Usually here in Connecticut you get a price for a certain volume, say 12 cu. yds, a week to fill it and a weight limit, say two tons. If you keep it for a longer period of time they add on a certain amount per day. If the can is over weight when they dump it they will bill you, as in charge your credit card, for the overage.
I was actually looking into doing this about 7 years ago there’s another company building these for a while now I believe it was a southland trailer and you can get them in tri axle goose neck and up to 25 or 30 yard bins and you can get a heavier gavel box and a flat deck with d rings as well
i’ve wanted one of these for a few years now since first seeing them, but my biggest concern is all the negative i’ve seen/heard about the lifting power when dumping. i had some texas built dump trailer 10 years ago that could barely lift C&D let alone dirt so hot rod of it within a year or two, since then i have multiple brimar dump trailers and they never let me down. and obviously a box with 4 foot walls you can’t load the entire thing with dirt you’d be way over weight (i know that part) but i’ve seen a lot of guys on youtube that put only a couple yard of dirt and can’t get these to lift yet i’ve lifted 6 tones of cement in my brimar dump trailer. but i’ve also seen these dumpster trailers with small honda motors that run the hydraulic system. idk this comment was all over lol hope i works out well for you looking forward to future vids because i really do want to get some of these!
I run a Roll off dumpster trailer business in Wisconsin and we make great money. I have a ton of videos explaining the business on youtube. Would love to chat with you about it. Love the videos I have been watching for years!
Having worked on rolloff trash trucks for 2+ years my recommendation would be have a 2nd winch installed and wired in for redundancy as when a can is overloaded winch cables break and its no fun when a winch cable breaks and takes out a glass window or even hits the operator not to mention the can sliding back off the trailer and you being stuck with a broken trailer needing to pickup a box that's full. personally id get a hooklift trailer that uses a hydraulic arm to lift cans on and off they make trailers and beds for trucks and there is way less to break on one of those than a flying winch cable
Great concept but if I had to poke some holes in this i would say that the end of the rails near the ground are no where near ready for the abuse that constant dumpster loading will put them through. Also, 2 remotes is super annoying, they could have done a better job and consolidating that.
I'm glad you did this video on this setup. I'm down in Florida and have a local company that builds these. They have the flat deck. I'm doing the two dumpsters and flat deck. But i have upgrades i want added to these to make things more efficient. One being the automatic tarp system like on the big trucks.
Stan all fine if it fits your needs if you rent them cans will get destroyed and overloaded loaded wrong all weight back end of can would lift the back of your pickup off the ground and if you tow with a 4500 or 5500 series class of truck puts you into a class A CDL but hope it works well for you. I personally for that money spend a little more and get a under CDL single axle roll off truck.
Cmon Stan, you KNOW that you need to speed load a Skidsteer into the can in order to fully show the capabilities of this setup! The only thing that I had a question about was the security of the single D ring for the tailgates when dumping. I have 20 years in the waste industry and doors swing free when dumping with the conventional chains. Great vid and great product!
The only thing that I had a question about was the security of the single D ring for the tailgates when dumping.- good call. I wonder how that will hold up. Guess I will find out
@@Dirtmonkey I dumped rolloff cans from 15yds to 40yd self contained. When you get a “stuck” load and have to run a verticals can back and forth and even use the cable to tap it on the transfer station floor, the first thing that comes loose is the door securement. You have a quality channel sir!
I'd love to see a full in detail video of this trailer. Of you using it. Setting it up. And ideas u have for it. As a yard maintenance man myself I'd modify one bin to turn it into a grab and go leaf connection system. I.e. I can drop it on a site for some of the guys to use and go back later to get it.
We have a roll off truck. 22 dodge ram 5500 SNG setup. Different rate structures. 1-3,4-7,8-14 days. We use it a lot on landscaping, material delivery, and rent our dumpsters out. We re in w a few contractors that do roofs, remodeling etc. different entity, lots of money to be made, we average $250-300 a dumpster
I'm not in this business, I'm not even a US resident, but I find this video really interesting. I wouldn't mind starting a dumpster business in the US, and I might even do so... you never know.
Given its trailer based I get the tarp mounted to the container, but that is definitely a vulnerable to damage when loading with a mini X or skid! I recently packed a truck camper in an open top using a mini X with a thumb had junk everywhere on all sides ha. Great video I love your editing
The brake in the winch will eventually fail from powering out. Those types of electric winches are not designed to do repeated power out but rather free spool. The brakes are internal to the drum. You need a winch with an external (to the drum) brake.
Weight capacity is the limiting factor for most. 2-3tons just isn’t enough. For example, went to the quarry today. Asked for 3 tons of aggregate and they loaded me with 3.18 tons. I would be overloaded with a hair over 4tons with the 14k version. This seems like a dream setup for those who deal with remodel or people getting rid of junk TBH. Nonetheless, looking forward to how it treats you and hopefully it changes my mind from my initial impression. Thanks again for the vid Stan!
I have actually thought of something similar to this after looking at used military roll off trailers but they use a crane. You can have a flat bed that you strap equipment to and deliver to the next job site and then a dumpster like that one that you set some where else. And then even use another flat pallet and built an office trailer on it and put that somewhere else.
Lots of these trailers out now, Texas Pride has them, Maxx-D, PJ, ect.. Most affordable one is probably bison out of PA. Nedlands is good, protainer. All standard rail cable hoist setups. I prefer hooklift though.
Nice package.. Flat deck option is a Great one provided it also has ramps so that you can flat load equipment on it then pull it up. Also for flat deck application it the winch were mounted higher it could serve double duty by being able to pull loads onto the "flat deck"
As an Euroguy i have to smile a litte. A "Hookloader" is the most normal thing here and i dont inderstand why it issnt in USA. No need for step out of the cabin. It comes in an standart size and system, so every Hookloader Truck can take every bin/flatbed/craneplatform what ever.
Thanks for the great content Stanley. Could you also tell us maintenance and costs and common issues. I wouldn't want to order to the other side of the world to have issues that can only be solved in the US.
There's quite a few lawn business, that has dumpsters added on to their businesses. So, he's got his company name on the side of his dumpsters!! My next door neighbor used a service, that had a regular truck, that picked up the dumpster.. I asked and he had told me, that it over $300 per 30 yard dumpster.
Technically it being rated for 14k means that you’d need a class A or a class b since it’s goose neck in Illinois to use these just a heads up. Keep in mind class a & b are just as expensive now to get
My neighbor has these and a few guy working for him. Different types of hitching and truck configurations gooseneck and ball hitch. He is making a killing and loves the system.
We're I live in western Pennsylvania. We have a company that has the same setup. Multiple cans for drop off. $325.00 for 5 to 7 day max. When they scale at the dump. Any weight over 3000 lbs is charged to customer by the pound. They also have bulk pick up or any junk that needs gone. Send a picture they give you a price. It will be gone the next day.
My neighbor runs something like this. He probably moves 3-4 cans a day. It can make money but the batteries on a rig like that don’t keep up. He keeps five batteries on the trailer and has to switch between them to keep it running. He charges them all every night.
Great video as always Stan my biggest question is why would they have two controller and not intergrade them into one. I would imagine with one wireless controller that you can use with the winch and lift you can increase production time faster drops and pick ups. With the person safely in the truck. To me it seems kind of back yard made with out having something like one controller for all.
One controller would be great, but you probably need to watch the dumpster and be sure it stays on the track. Especially if the ground is uneven, as it usually is at job sites.
Honestly probably because it would be tied to the winch and trailer. If the winch goes out you would need to re do the controller anyway, and the same for the dump feature. It would also make it harder to upgrade. But with separate controllers you could put a Harbor freight winch on there if you wanted and it wouldn't affect the controls, Or you could upgrade the pump without worrying about compatibility.
20 grand that's incredible my boss bought a 16 ft dump trailer I had him build every 3/4 L bracket slots using wood planks to separate material but with this you have three bins you can put the green waste and one the concrete and another glad he's coming up with a low boy cuz I was going to say if you filled that up with concrete you ain't going to dumping it you ain't going to picking it up people with a roll off business know there are people stupid enough to fill up something that high with concrete and any material that you get where you can take one of them to the landfill one to the concrete quarry and one to the metal recycling yard I like what James Flori had to say a enclosed roll off so you can store your equipment in and with a security system
Seems like it would be easier & wouldn't have to hire a driver, or have fuel expense if it was simply a "Rent-A-Trailer" service No? As in , (( They call -They Rent- they pick up - They Dump - They return ")) like a U-HAUL? I mean, u can add it as a fee & do all that but for pure profit margin wouldn't it be more ROI?
We have trucks in uk that do this called hookloaders! There much better than the cable pull! You can tip them up soon as the back touches the floor leave the handbrake off the lorry and let the weight kf the container push you! This elemanates the dragging all across the floor leaving marks you can basically drop it off on the spot! Its like 10 trucks in one! You can use it as a low loader! Normal tipper! Or get a hotbox made for asphalt! Don’t understand why everyone with a truck aint using them
we manufacture these type of roll off trailers at PDQ in dunnellon FL in our area its mostly 350-500 a week drop plus fees for a 12 yard box its great for guys starting out a side hustle or small business owner who need the most versatile trailer
@@brianmixon4309 we had a 3rd part running the website which is now in our hands so should be updated pretty soon our TikTok had plenty of proof of what we do
It might be a little late but regarding the roll off box trailer can you do a comparison to the winch one versus the rieving one that uses the Honda motor it's a little more money but is it's worth it just starting out
nah ill pass......these 10 to15 yrd cans I see on Ford 550 are the way to go.....now you have to worry about a trailer hauling it??? I use these setups on Ford chassis all the time in tight areas, can't do that with a trailer......here in Nashville, Tn Viava charges $365 a dump.....7000lbs is the max
This feels pretty nice. But it feels it would be better if it is a hook lift system instead of the wire and the body fram it’s under and have a hook that you in to from the car. Nice video
Standard pricing in my neck of the woods - 12-15 YD $200.00 +60/ addl ton after 1 ton 20 YD $260 + 60 / addl ton after 2 ton 30 YD $350 +60 / addl ton after 3 ton 40 YD $450 + 60/ addl ton after 3 ton
I drive roll offs for a living and I can't wrap my head around the idea of what can you really haul in that can? that cable looks weak. and looks like it could jump rail very easily when hauling it up the rail
Many trailer companies make these. Great concept but be aware goose necks take a lot of room to position and even more room to unload/load the container. Sometimes just getting a truck made to haul the dumpster is a better deal but definitely a CDL required. Just find a military PLS and you have a very capable offroad dumpster truck with box/flat/dumpster option.
that latch is wrong for a dumpster the way its set up you have to wrestle pins out that will be under pressure. most dumpsters come with a arm on the side you use to unlatch the door so you are away from the swing
With the 8k axle option that gives you 10k in the bed no? 6k for the whole thing so I think you could probably get away with something like putting a skid steer in the back and then dropping both off at a site
If switch-n-go has a patent this is an obvious patent infringement. If ya don't know what switch-n-go is look it up, same thing just truck mounted.. Good product but hook lifts are better. More power.
In California are you not allowed to have a rated gvw of 10k lbs ? Before need a class A. Was looking at roll off looks like most are rated over 10k usually 14klbs
Lol...from the outside looking in the dumpster business looks easy. Once you get one of these trailers you'll eventually wish you got a hook truck....you WILL... These little setups are all over place...the entire market is divided a thousand ways between little operator trailer guys gunning for it. You have to do lots of volume for it to be worth being in the waste business. Most importantly, if the rails aren't "standard rail" they are not at all compatible with a hook truck that has standard rails...37" distance. Most of these are 48". There are only a handful of trailer setups that even off standard rail. If you bought one of these setups you'd want to make sure you're buying standard rail. That way if you ever break down you can have a hook truck pick up your dumpsters. 54" hook is most popular here...you'd want your dumpsters to have that feature as well. That way you could convert to a hook truck later. If you're already in the landscaping business it's nice to have....but if you ever want to switch to a hook truck, you'll have to start over from scratch... People want to rent 10's, 15's, 20's, and 30's. Imagine how many 20 and 30 yard dumpsters you won't rent with that....
Just curious why you didn’t buy a Diamond C? I thought they make the same thing. BTW… this is my dream but I can’t get anyone to rent my dump trailer as it is.
Save your self the money and buy a Nedland setup far superior and will work every day . I’ve been in the garbage business over 40 years the electric is BS junk Just the facts guys

Stan, you always ask the right questions and give us (the viewers) the information we need to be successful. Thank you!
Absolutely PHENOMENAL!! I was just talking to my dad about starting one of these around here in Southern KY.. Thanks @Stan!!
If they welded big D-rings in the corners and the middle low to the base you could transport equipment as well…. With the weight limit in mind.
Most companies sell flat beds that can be rolled on.
Great video, there is a company from Minnesota that makes nothing but these types of trailers. Protainer out of Alexandria. MN.
We have some of the best trailer makers in the country. You would have saved yourself lots of fuel.
The plus side with Protainer is that they're containers can be used on any standard roll off truck as well. If I'm not mistaken, they're the only company that uses standardized boxes. You could use the same box on a trailer that you put on the truck and then you could also buy it containers from other manufacturers as long as they were a standard rail box.

They say it can handle 4 tons, but tell customers to stay at 2 tons cause customers don't know how to count.
@@d3lsl0w in other words, it’s not built to handle consistently heavy loads.
That’s why if you have a customer loading dirt or gravel, concrete you give them a container with 2’ high walls

I’d like to see it loaded with materials from a site. The operation when its somewhat overloaded. Cause you know that’s the norm.
I agree. This looks a little light duty for some of the loads I haul. Sheetrock and asphalt roofing shingles is heavy.
Nice package.. Flat deck option is a Great one provided it also has ramps so that you can flat load equipment on it then pull it up. Also for flat deck application it the winch were mounted higher it could serve double duty by being able to pull loads onto the "flat deck"
As an Euroguy i have to smile a litte. A "Hookloader" is the most normal thing here and i dont inderstand why it issnt in USA. No need for step out of the cabin. It comes in an standart size and system, so every Hookloader Truck can take every bin/flatbed/craneplatform what ever.
That just makes sense in my opinion. Universal is easy
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR A GREAT VIDEO AND EXPLANATION OF THE BUSINESS!!
How useful is it to you with a 2t capacity? I would think most of the stuff you do would be heavier
I think way to light duty.
Thanks for the great content Stanley. Could you also tell us maintenance and costs and common issues. I wouldn't want to order to the other side of the world to have issues that can only be solved in the US.
you earned a subscriber Mr, a lot of good info for contractors
That looks awesome! Thinking about adding this service to my business. Thanks for the info!
I can't wait to see how many ways Stan and team find to use this cool new setup!
They should have put a D-ring on the trailer frame to hook the cable to when running empty.
Your #1 of the main reasons why I started my UA-cam channel sir 🚧🚜
There's quite a few lawn business, that has dumpsters added on to their businesses. So, he's got his company name on the side of his dumpsters!! My next door neighbor used a service, that had a regular truck, that picked up the dumpster.. I asked and he had told me, that it over $300 per 30 yard dumpster.
It might make a nice side hustle
Game changer and other companies "why can't we build that? " awesome video 📹.
Good looking rig. I could see having a deck so you can haul like a typical trailer. (Duel purpose). Might be able to deliver those small sheds too.
Technically it being rated for 14k means that you’d need a class A or a class b since it’s goose neck in Illinois to use these just a heads up. Keep in mind class a & b are just as expensive now to get
That’s what happens when you live in a communist state.
wow this is really impressive. now I'm interested in this and the opportunity this will provide.
My neighbor has these and a few guy working for him. Different types of hitching and truck configurations gooseneck and ball hitch. He is making a killing and loves the system.
now having one of these units, is it less susceptible to thefts than the traditional dumpster trailer on wheels?
I am Green to roll off services.. is there a way to lock the box after dropping it off?? I'd hate to keep reinvesting into a new box.
Does is it need to be a 8ft bed truck? Do you make a 16-18ft flat bed attachment to haul cars/bobcats?
2 day $300
3 day $330
7 day $350
Drop off pick up and dump fee for 2 ton of waste
11 yard container
In TN
You can get a flat deck for it too
We're I live in western Pennsylvania. We have a company that has the same setup. Multiple cans for drop off. $325.00 for 5 to 7 day max. When they scale at the dump. Any weight over 3000 lbs is charged to customer by the pound. They also have bulk pick up or any junk that needs gone. Send a picture they give you a price. It will be gone the next day.
My neighbor runs something like this. He probably moves 3-4 cans a day. It can make money but the batteries on a rig like that don’t keep up. He keeps five batteries on the trailer and has to switch between them to keep it running. He charges them all every night.
Run cable from truck to trailer to keep it charged. We have that on our truck and works great.
Run a 1/0 gage cable from the truck positive and trailer positive. Then ground the battery on the trailer to the trailer and boom no more charging
Great video as always Stan my biggest question is why would they have two controller and not intergrade them into one. I would imagine with one wireless controller that you can use with the winch and lift you can increase production time faster drops and pick ups. With the person safely in the truck. To me it seems kind of back yard made with out having something like one controller for all.
One controller would be great, but you probably need to watch the dumpster and be sure it stays on the track. Especially if the ground is uneven, as it usually is at job sites.
Honestly probably because it would be tied to the winch and trailer. If the winch goes out you would need to re do the controller anyway, and the same for the dump feature. It would also make it harder to upgrade. But with separate controllers you could put a Harbor freight winch on there if you wanted and it wouldn't affect the controls, Or you could upgrade the pump without worrying about compatibility.
I love your videos and I enjoyed everything you do Keep up the good work buddy. 😁😎😎😎💪💪👍👍👍🙏🏻🙏🏻
These work great issues that limit you from growth is non standard rails, tarp for each dumpster and the 7k axles, take a look at bison trailers
They have bumper pull options or just neck trailers?
Only thing missing would be to enclose a box. Great product, thanks Stan.
20 grand that's incredible my boss bought a 16 ft dump trailer I had him build every 3/4 L bracket slots using wood planks to separate material but with this you have three bins you can put the green waste and one the concrete and another glad he's coming up with a low boy cuz I was going to say if you filled that up with concrete you ain't going to dumping it you ain't going to picking it up people with a roll off business know there are people stupid enough to fill up something that high with concrete and any material that you get where you can take one of them to the landfill one to the concrete quarry and one to the metal recycling yard I like what James Flori had to say a enclosed roll off so you can store your equipment in and with a security system
Seems like it would be easier & wouldn't have to hire a driver, or have fuel expense if it was simply a "Rent-A-Trailer" service No?
As in , (( They call -They Rent- they pick up - They Dump - They return ")) like a U-HAUL?
I mean, u can add it as a fee & do all that but for pure profit margin wouldn't it be more ROI?
Those engines are built to be quite but if you swap out the injectors to single shot there louder but you get better mpg.
Cool mechanism for the hitch, but you still have to get up there and hook up the safety chains.
true.
@@Dirtmonkey people will forget to hook up the chains. If that was my trailer, I would disable the remote lock.
Nice i wonder if you can get totally enclosed boxes weather tight for that or just the open top
We have trucks in uk that do this called hookloaders! There much better than the cable pull! You can tip them up soon as the back touches the floor leave the handbrake off the lorry and let the weight kf the container push you! This elemanates the dragging all across the floor leaving marks you can basically drop it off on the spot! Its like 10 trucks in one! You can use it as a low loader! Normal tipper! Or get a hotbox made for asphalt! Don’t understand why everyone with a truck aint using them
Check out Cam Concepts, they build a Hook-Lift Trailer. Much nicer trailer, and you can get them in different hook heights & gvwr.
I will. Thanks
@@Dirtmonkey I have the 16k model, if you're ever in Maryland and want to check one out
hi Stanley its been a year what r your thoughts on trailer now? what have you been charging? Thank you.
This looks exactly like the maxx D version with some minor changes. Hopefully their quality is better then maxx D's
Dude where did you pick this up? I'm in Texas and it says their location is temporarily closed.
Nice design access for the spare.
One of those times I would like to be 20 years younger!
how do the batteries do in northern Minnesota when it's minus 20f?
we manufacture these type of roll off trailers at PDQ in dunnellon FL in our area its mostly 350-500 a week drop plus fees for a 12 yard box its great for guys starting out a side hustle or small business owner who need the most versatile trailer
No you don't according to your website
@@brianmixon4309 we had a 3rd part running the website which is now in our hands so should be updated pretty soon our TikTok had plenty of proof of what we do
It might be a little late but regarding the roll off box trailer can you do a comparison to the winch one versus the rieving one that uses the Honda motor it's a little more money but is it's worth it just starting out
nah ill pass......these 10 to15 yrd cans I see on Ford 550 are the way to go.....now you have to worry about a trailer hauling it??? I use these setups on Ford chassis all the time in tight areas, can't do that with a trailer......here in Nashville, Tn Viava charges $365 a dump.....7000lbs is the max
Do they make a flat deck or a box bed for that too?
This feels pretty nice. But it feels it would be better if it is a hook lift system instead of the wire and the body fram it’s under and have a hook that you in to from the car. Nice video
I have a hook lift version
God bless you, Sir!
Gbu brother! Great video!!
Does he make a hook style. We have a 54" palfinger hook on our single axle Kenworth. Way nicer cause don't need to hook up a cable
If it can pull with winch and dump 5 to 10 tons its good. But many are limited to 1 to 4 tons. How many tons can this hamdle?
Nice one Stan 👍👍🏴🏴
Okay, I need this but small, deck-over, and bumper pull. They need to make a 4½x7' deckover version for cars.
Standard pricing in my neck of the woods -
12-15 YD $200.00 +60/ addl ton after 1 ton
20 YD $260 + 60 / addl ton after 2 ton
30 YD $350 +60 / addl ton after 3 ton
40 YD $450 + 60/ addl ton after 3 ton
Thank you for sharing🙏
Dang where is that?
I’m in Central NJ. $750 for 30 YD, 3 ton included. $110 addition per ton
Worthwhile. It costs me 150 for 10 yards of local soil delivery
I drive roll offs for a living and I can't wrap my head around the idea of what can you really haul in that can? that cable looks weak. and looks like it could jump rail very easily when hauling it up the rail
Many trailer companies make these. Great concept but be aware goose necks take a lot of room to position and even more room to unload/load the container. Sometimes just getting a truck made to haul the dumpster is a better deal but definitely a CDL required. Just find a military PLS and you have a very capable offroad dumpster truck with box/flat/dumpster option.
before hearing the price. I rented a 20 yard roll off for 7 days for $400 on East Coast
Would this gooseneck trailer work on a 8 inch lifted f250? Or do they offer a raised goosekneck option?
that latch is wrong for a dumpster the way its set up you have to wrestle pins out that will be under pressure. most dumpsters come with a arm on the side you use to unlatch the door so you are away from the swing
Very interesting point
With the 8k axle option that gives you 10k in the bed no? 6k for the whole thing so I think you could probably get away with something like putting a skid steer in the back and then dropping both off at a site
If switch-n-go has a patent this is an obvious patent infringement. If ya don't know what switch-n-go is look it up, same thing just truck mounted.. Good product but hook lifts are better. More power.
Hook lifts are ideal. Just sit in truck, hit switch and leave. No cable
I want one of those D&D hats!
Are they going to make anything longer than the one they are showing and a gvw higher than 16k?
In California are you not allowed to have a rated gvw of 10k lbs ? Before need a class A. Was looking at roll off looks like most are rated over 10k usually 14klbs
Lol...from the outside looking in the dumpster business looks easy. Once you get one of these trailers you'll eventually wish you got a hook truck....you WILL...
These little setups are all over place...the entire market is divided a thousand ways between little operator trailer guys gunning for it.
You have to do lots of volume for it to be worth being in the waste business.
Most importantly, if the rails aren't "standard rail" they are not at all compatible with a hook truck that has standard rails...37" distance. Most of these are 48". There are only a handful of trailer setups that even off standard rail. If you bought one of these setups you'd want to make sure you're buying standard rail. That way if you ever break down you can have a hook truck pick up your dumpsters. 54" hook is most popular here...you'd want your dumpsters to have that feature as well. That way you could convert to a hook truck later.
If you're already in the landscaping business it's nice to have....but if you ever want to switch to a hook truck, you'll have to start over from scratch...
People want to rent 10's, 15's, 20's, and 30's.
Imagine how many 20 and 30 yard dumpsters you won't rent with that....
Thank you for sharing
Nedland industries make very good roll off trailer.
Just curious why you didn’t buy a Diamond C? I thought they make the same thing. BTW… this is my dream but I can’t get anyone to rent my dump trailer as it is.
Could you please tell me the financing company you reviewed that helps people with not such great credit? Thank you sir
Save your self the money and buy a Nedland setup far superior and will work every day . I’ve been in the garbage business over 40 years the electric is BS junk Just the facts guys
Love the content brother, it’s been rough since my grandpa’s garage caught fire and I lost all of my tools, welder, power tools, air compressor, kinda sucks gotta start over unfortunately😏
Praying for you Brother
