The Covered Wagon 6×12 Prospector dump trailer (model D-6X12X2X10) is Covered Wagon’s entry-level dump in the half-ton-tow class. Covered Wagon is best known for enclosed cargo trailers; the Prospector dump line shares the same 12-gauge sidewall and 10-gauge floor construction as their cargo line, just open-top with hydraulic lift. Build quality is solid for the price point, with full-power hydraulics (power up + power down) standard, which is unusual at this size class.

  • 9,990 lb GVWR with 6,700 lb payload (3,290 lb empty)
  • 71-inch wide x 12-foot long deck, 24-inch (2-foot) sides

Why a Covered Wagon Dump?

Covered Wagon is primarily a cargo trailer manufacturer; they apply the same chassis fundamentals (12-gauge sides, 10-gauge floor) to their open-top dump line. For buyers who already trust Covered Wagon’s cargo build quality, the Prospector dump is a known-good extension. Pricing tends to run slightly below comparable BWise and Big Tex 6×12 dumps, partly because Covered Wagon is less specialized in dumps and partly because their volume in this category is smaller.

What Can You Haul?

  • 1.5 yards of crushed stone or 2 yards of mulch
  • Compact equipment via the 6-foot ladder ramps (under 5,000 lb)
  • Yard waste, snow, residential cleanup debris
  • Tools and material for small contractor jobs

Frequently Asked Questions

Power up + power down standard at this price?

Yes, and that is unusual. Most 9,990 lb GVWR dump trailers in this price class come with power-up gravity-down hydraulics. Covered Wagon includes full power both directions as standard, which gives controlled bed-down speed (no slamming) and partial-dump capability.

How does Covered Wagon compare to BWise or Big Tex 6×12 dumps?

Similar GVWR (9,990), similar payload range (6,700-7,000 lb), similar build (5,200 lb axles, 10-gauge floor). Covered Wagon’s differentiator is the included deep-cycle battery and full-power hydraulics. BWise and Big Tex have stronger dump-trailer specialization. All three are reasonable choices at this size class.

What is the warranty on Covered Wagon dumps?

Covered Wagon offers a 5-year structural warranty on the trailer frame and bed. Component-level (hydraulics, axles, electrical) typically carries 1-year warranties. Specifics included on the warranty card delivered with the trailer.
