About Roll-Off Trailers

Designed to transport wheeled, open-top containers, these trailers roll off their cargo along tracks installed on the trailer chassis and are frequently used in construction waste disposal and commercial trash collection applications. Roll-off trailers function similarly to dump trailers but jettison the whole container from the trailer rather than just the contents. Some trailers can move multiple containers at once. They often come in lengths ranging from 12 to 20 feet (3.6 to 6 meters) with gross vehicle weight ratings (GVWRs) ranging from 12,000 to 30,000 pounds (5,443 to 13,607 kilograms), according to size. Tarping systems can also be added to cover the material being transported. The trailers come in gooseneck and bumper-pull configurations with steel floors or lumber decking options.

Maxx-D RPX16 Gooseneck Roll-Off Trailer

Roll-off trailers come in two main subtypes: electric- and engine-powered. Electric roll-off trailers use 12-volt hydraulic cylinders and a drum system and are typically used for light and medium loads. Engine-driven roll-off trailers use a motor-powered hydraulic and winch system and don’t rely on power supplied by the tow cab. Engine-powered trailers are generally used for heavier loads.

Features & Capacity

Maxx-D offers roll-off dump trailers with a 45-degree dumping angle, a heavy-duty scissor lift, a hydraulic hoist, and a 22K Warrior power winch system.
