  1. How to Choose the Best Dump Truck for Construction? Dump trucks are an integral part and one of the most commonly used heavy equipment in the construction and mining industries. From hauling to excavation, they are essential for construction purposes. They are specifically built to move construction materials and equipment from one place to another. When finding the right dump truck for your project, you will need to consider types, carrying capacity, maneuverability, terrain, and speed beyond ensuring the safety requirements. Here are the factors that will help you choose the best dump truck for your needs. Types of Dump Truck Dump trucks are divided by types and each one has been designed to perform a specific task.

  2. •Standard– It is a full truck having a truck chassis with a dump bed attached to it. It contains a vertical hydraulic lift at the bulkhead. •Transfer– A standard dump truck which features separate trailers for increasing hauling capacity without affecting maneuverability. •Side Dump– It is embedded with hydraulic rams and a two-axle semi-trailer with a three-axle tractor which allows dumping on either side. •Super Dump– These trucks have liftable and load-bearing axles which possess the ability to carry heavy loads. •Semi-Trailer End & Bottom– These are tractors that use the hydraulic hoist to pull trailers. Both dump trucks can be readily operated in reverse. Carrying Capacity One of the important things considered by people while selecting the dump truck is its payload. The carrying capacity is divided into water level and heaped capacity. It is measured as volume versus weight due to uncertainty in moisture. Maneuverability The standard dump truck is specifically designed for working in tight and limited spaces. Unlike multi-trailer dump trucks, these trucks have a tight turning radius and can easily move in reverse. Terrain Not all dump trucks are designed to go off-road. Some may also have restrictions for going on certain roads and bridges. Before renting dump trucks, it is important to check their accessibility for avoiding any complications. Speed The speed of a dump truck can have direct influence when choosing the right type of truck for rental. If your company operates in more than one state or have a project that demands long transportation, speed matters! When searching the best dump truck companies in Fort Myers, Fl for truck rental, it is better to consider these factors for making the right decision based on your requirements.
