Bri-Mar DTR Low Pro Dump Trailer = Overview and Specifications

This trailer is about 14 years old and is the “work” trailer. It has been used to haul pumpkins (typically under 1600 pounds), remove plant material and bring in compost. Since it is a dump trailer the hardest part is the loading process, since the unloading process is as simply as hitting a button.

Waxing the sides and the floor are helpful when it comes to removing compost from the bed, but using a plastic snow shovel can help dislodge clumps of compost that stick without damaging the bed.

Trailer Specifics:
Inside Bed With = 60”
Inside Bed Length = 96”
Total Trailer Width (tire sidewall to tire sidewall) = 81”
Total Trailer Length (tongue to tailgate) = 142”
Height of side walls = 17.5”

*It holds about 2 cubic yards of material if fully filled and level.
