Scissor Lift vs Single Cylinder
The scissor lift system on this Big Tex low profile scissor dump tilts the entire bed evenly from front to back. That clears wet aggregate, sticky clay, and demolition debris more reliably than a single-cylinder telescopic, which lifts only the front of the bed. Higher dump angle (approximately 60 degrees vs 45 for single cylinder) means complete clearing on the first dump cycle. For daily commercial use, scissor is the upgrade contractors don’t regret.
What Can You Haul With This Trailer?
- 3 yards of crushed stone or 5 yards of mulch (16-foot deck holds long-format material like landscape timbers and pipe)
- Loaded skid steer (Bobcat S70 = 4,400 lb) plus 2-3 attachments via the 6-ft slide-out ramps
- Demolition debris from a kitchen, bathroom, and roof tear-off
- 9,000 lb of asphalt millings or RAP
- Snow and ice-melt for plow operations

Frequently Asked Questions
Why pick the 16-foot length over a 14-foot?
The extra 2 feet of bed length matters most for hauling long-format material (16-foot landscape timbers, sheet goods, irrigation pipe, fencing). For volumetric loads (mulch, soil) you gain about 14 percent more capacity at the same width. For weight-limited loads (gravel, stone), the 14-ft and 16-ft hold the same weight but the 16-ft is easier to balance.
10-gauge floor and sides, why does it matter?
10-gauge is heavier than the 12-gauge or 14-gauge construction common at this price point. For abrasive loads (rock, RAP, demolition debris), 10-gauge typically lasts 2-3 years longer before warping or punching through. Worth the modest weight penalty.
What is the deck height?
This Big Tex low profile scissor dump has a 22 to 24 inch deck height (sits between the wheels). Easier loading via shovel or bucket compared to a 35-inch deckover style. Trade-off is bed width is 83 inches between fenders versus 84+ inches on a deckover.
