Yes, There are different types such as Double axle, tri axle trailers. Dual Axle Tandem Trailers have two axles & most of the times four wheels. Tri axle trailers have three axles & six wheels in general. They can load greater weight easily.
The "tandem" part means it has two drive axles, although it is possible for a tandem truck to be a 6x2 vehicle, and have only one of those be a live axle.
When sliding your tandem axles on a tractor-trailer combination, approximately 400 pounds per hole can be adjusted. Moving the axles forward increases the weight on the trailer's tires, while moving them back reduces this weight. It's important to adhere to axle weight limits as governed by local regulations.
This is typical for tandem axle trucks. Two axles are live axles, and the driveshaft goes into a power divider. The power divider supplies power to both axles.

A tandem dump truck is as normal as any other dump truck. Tandem simply indicates that it has two drive axles (as opposed to a single axle, which only has one). A tandem dump is typically allowed to gross at 54,000 lbs. From there, some dump trucks have additional axles (lift axles) which allow them to haul more weight. They're named in accordance with the number of axles behind the cab (i.e., not including the steer axle). So a tandem dump with a single lift axle would be referred to as a tri-axle, with two lift axles it would be referred to as a quad axle dump, with three lift axles it would be referred to as a quint axle dump.... at four lift axles, they're typically referred to as 'centipedes'.
