Steel Dump Trailers for Sale – Rugged, Reliable & Built to Haul

At Hitch Point Trailers, our steel dump trailers are engineered for serious haulers who demand strength, reliability, and efficiency on the job. Whether you’re a contractor, landscaper, rancher, or weekend warrior, our dump trailers are built to handle whatever you throw in them—or out of them. With sizes ranging from compact 6×10 dump trailers to larger 7×14 and 7×16 models rated for 14K and 16K GVWR, our lineup gives you the hauling power you need and the peace of mind you deserve.

Why Choose a Steel Dump Trailer?

Steel dump trailers are the go-to choice for those who need a rugged, long-lasting trailer that can endure years of heavy-duty work. Unlike aluminum, steel is more impact-resistant, making it better suited for construction debris, gravel, demolition materials, and other rough loads. Our Hitch Point steel dump trailers are finished with powder coating or automotive-grade paint to resist rust and maintain a professional appearance on-site.

Sizes, Weight Ratings & Common Applications

From our compact 6×10 dump trailer rated for 10,000 lbs GVWR to larger 7×14 and 7×16 models available in both 14K and 16K options, each trailer is designed to serve a range of customer needs:

• Landscapers hauling mulch, topsoil, and yard debris
• Contractors moving gravel, lumber, scrap, and demo waste
• Homeowners managing renovation cleanup or property maintenance
• Ranchers transporting feed, fencing, or tools to remote locations
  

Key Features That Set Our Dump Trailers Apart

• Heavy-duty steel tube frame construction for lasting durability
• Hydraulic scissor or telescoping lift systems for efficient dumping
• Tandem 5,200 lb, 7,000 lb, or 8,000 lb axles depending on model
• Reinforced 20″ steel sides for superior load containment
• Barn door and spreader gate configurations for versatile unloading
• Integrated tarp kits and optional roll tarps for safe transport
• Spare tire mounts, D-rings, and stake pockets for load security
• LED recessed lighting to stay visible and compliant on the road

Built for Contractors, Priced for Everyone

Our dump trailers are designed with commercial users in mind, but we keep pricing competitive so even small business owners, homeowners, and new trailer buyers can afford professional-grade equipment. Our 6×10 10K steel dump trailer is a customer favorite for its compact footprint and big capabilities, while our 7×14 and 7×16 dump trailers offer higher payloads and full-length bed space for larger jobs.

Real-World Performance, Backed by Experience

Every trailer we build is a result of feedback from the field. We work closely with contractors and crews to make sure our dump trailers are designed to meet the demands of the job site—day in and day out. Our frames are reinforced in high-stress zones, our wiring is sealed inside the tube frame to prevent shorts, and our ramps and sides are built to take a beating.

Steel vs. Aluminum Dump Trailers – What’s the Difference?

While aluminum trailers offer benefits in weight savings and corrosion resistance, steel remains the top choice for strength, impact resistance, and price point. Steel dump trailers handle rougher materials without denting or flexing under strain. This makes steel the preferred material for commercial use, especially in landscaping, demolition, and heavy-duty job site work. If you’re looking for a trailer that can handle concrete chunks, heavy lumber, or construction debris—steel is the way to go.

Scissor Lift vs. Telescopic Lift – Which Should You Choose?

Both lifting systems have their place in the dump trailer world:

• Scissor lifts provide excellent stability and even lifting, making them great for balanced, heavy loads.
• Telescopic lifts allow for higher lift angles with fewer moving parts, which can be ideal for quick, aggressive dumps of loose material like gravel or mulch.

At Hitch Point, we offer both options depending on your needs—just ask our team which is best for your workflow.

Real Customers, Real Loads

Our customers use Hitch Point steel dump trailers for everything from hauling gravel across job sites to dropping landscaping materials in tight urban alleys.

• One local contractor relies on his 7×14 14K steel dump trailer for daily debris removal, saying it’s the only trailer he’s owned that hasn’t needed repairs after a year of job site abuse.
• A landscaping crew told us the 6×10 10K dump with tarp kit helped them cut cleanup time in half—and stay fully DOT compliant.
