About Live Floor Trailers
Live floor trailers offer quick unloading without tipping or dumping when hauling loose material such as asphalt, grain, gravel, soil, construction debris, or a number of different types of materials. A live floor trailer (also commonly referred to as a walking-floor trailer, live-bottom trailer, or self-unloading trailer) often uses a conveyor belt or some other type of system run by hydraulics that slides the floor rearward to push or slide the load out of the trailer at a controlled pace.

Live Floor Trailer Features
Most live floor trailers have aluminum, steel, or stainless steel construction. East notes its live floor trailers have strong floors specially designed for fast, efficient unloading. Live bottom trailers for sale from Trout River Industries use conveyors built on a hardened rail system, with I-beam construction and rounded tubs for more evenly distributed loads that won’t shift going around corners.
