It all depends on the size and quality of your dump trailer! If you have a old or worn out dump trailer, odds are it won't be able to haul as much as a new and unused one.


If my tri axle dump truck has a GVW of 70000 can weigh up to that much what if I add a 20000 lb trailer what if I add a 25000 lb machine?

GVW means Gross Vehicle Weight. That's the maximum permissible weight of the truck plus the trailer (in the case of a combination rig) plus the load. Therefore...if you take your dump truck, hook a 20,000-lb empty trailer to it and put a 25,000-lb backhoe on the trailer, the truck needs to weigh less than 25,000 lbs if you want to remain legal.

whats your opinion on dump trucks?

Dump Trucks are good to have. They make it easier to discard of items or to move things since the truck is mobile compared to dropped dumpsters. They can carry twice as much as your average pickup truck can. I wouldn't mind working in a dump truck. It wouldn't be no different than working with anything else.

The volume that a dump truck can hold depends on the size of the truck. You could say that there is no 'typical' dump truck. The horsepower, the axle weight, and the size of the box are a few of the features that determine how much the truck can hold and haul.


What does the GVW on a truck mean If you had a triaxle dump truck with a GVW of 60000 does that mean your truck can weight up to that much what if you decided to pull a trailer that weighed 20000?

GVW is gross vehicle weight which is different than GCWR (gross combination weight rating). Pulling a trailer weighing 10 tons should not cause you any problems. However I am assuming you have your dump tagged at a little less than 55,000 to avoid paying heavy use tax. Even if this is not the case and you have tagged it for a heaver weight be aware that pulling that trailer while dump and trailer are loaded may put yousignificantly over your tagged weight. Just watch your gross weight or you can re-tag your dump for 80,000. When GCWR is not available on the power unit DOT will add the GVW for the dump and the trailer to get a GCW (gross combination weight).
