Equipter Trailer Built Different

By Equipter. 

The Equipter 4000 stands out among the crowd of tilt and dump trailers because of its versatility. 

The Equipter 4000 is a tilt and dump trailer designed to work for you. Trailers are crucial to keeping things organized and clean on a job site. But why invest in a specific roofing trailer? It may cost slightly more money than the traditional tilt and dump trailers on the market, but you are going to get your money’s worth. 

Tilt trailers, also known as tilt bed trailers and tilting trailers, are specialized trailers where the bed can incline for easily loading and unloading specialized equipment or other cargo. Tilt trailers come in many different sizes and many different price points, from $3,000 for simple single axle trailers to over $10,000 for heavy duty deck trailers. Tilt trailers are especially useful for transporting heavy objects with low clearance, like cars, motorcycles or riding mowers. Although tilt trailers are versatile in the type of equipment they can haul, they really only do one thing and are not comparable to the Equipter 4000’s range of functions. Tilt trailers require a vehicle to tow them in order to move whereas the self-driving Equipter 4000 can be started up and positioned into the place where it is needed. Some tilt trailers have short sides but are not suitable for hauling debris in the way that debris can be transported the Equipter 4000’s enclosed box. 

Dump trailers are designed to haul loose materials such as debris, sand and dirt and deposit its contents with a hydraulic dump function and tailgate. A 5x10 dump trailer, able to carry roughly the same payload as an Equipter 4000, is typically within the $5,000 to $8,000 range. Yet again, an inherent drawback to dump trailers is that they cannot be moved once they are at a job site, the debris must be moved to or away from them with manual labor. The Equipter 4000 can drive materials where they need to go. One of the Equipter 4000’s key features is its ability to lift its box 12 feet into the air to deliver materials to roofs or second stories or to catch debris from a rooftop or second story window. 

The Equipter 4000 is a versatile piece of equipment that can be used in industries as broad as roofing, remodeling, construction and demolition. The American-made Equipter is in high demand coast to coast and second-hand models typically retain 80% of their value after five years of use. When you consider these types of trailers, their potential and their resale value, the Equipter 4000 makes a strong case.
