Tri Axle Dump Truck Vs Quad Axle Dump Trucks. One of the most basic decisions to make is how many axles your dump truck should have. Whether you purchase a tri-axle or a quad-axle can make a significant difference in terms of its performance as well as its overall costs.

A 6x12 tandem axle dump has a 9990 GVWR, 24 sides, and an estimated payload of 7390. Given that 6 x 12 x 2 = 144 cubic feet, divided by 27 is equal to 5.33 cubic yards. This means the trailer will hold 5.33 yards of material if loaded even with the sides.

Safety is a matter of concern for people who carry loads in their trucks. While even the soft covers come in thick materials that are not easily torn, you should opt for hinged covers in materials like fiber-glass and aluminum if you want complete safety. These offer the utmost protection when locked.

Larger and more rugged dump trailers cost $5,000-$15,000, depending on size, number of axles, type of hydraulic lift, weight capacity and whether it's a standard bumper pull or gooseneck hitch (which extends forward and connects to a ball installed in the bed of a pickup truck).
