Buy Dump trucks (tipper trucks) new & used

Dump trailers are powerful transport trailers that have been specially developed for use in agriculture and forestry, as well as in the construction industry. They are characterized by a robust design, a large loading volume and an efficient tipping function. They enable fast and reliable transportation, especially for heavy bulk goods such as soil, gravel or harvested crops.

Used dump trucks - a cost-effective alternative

Buying a used dump truck can save considerable costs without having to compromise on quality and functionality. Many used models come from reliable series and offer a durable design and powerful hydraulic systems. Before buying, it is worth taking a look at the tipping mechanism, the tires and the condition of the body to ensure that the dump truck meets the operational requirements.

Important purchase criteria for dump trucks

Various factors play a role when buying a dump truck. The payload and the volume of the skip should correspond to the size of the business and the transportation tasks. The chassis is also important - tandem or tridem axles offer better weight distribution and soil protection. The hydraulic power of the tractor must also be sufficient to safely operate the tipping function.

Frequently asked questions about dump trucks

What does a used dump truck cost?

Prices for used dump trucks vary depending on the year of manufacture, condition and manufacturer. Simple models are available from around €10,000, while larger or as-new dump trucks can cost €50,000 or more.

What payload do dump trucks have?

Dump trucks are available with very different payloads. Smaller models start at around 5 tons, while large trailers can handle payloads of 20 tons and more.

Which manufacturers offer high-quality dump trucks?

The leading manufacturers of dump trucks include Krampe, Fliegl, Joskin and Pronar. These brands are known for their durable and efficient dumpers.

Which is better: tandem or tridem dumpers?

Tandem axles offer good maneuverability and are suitable for small to medium loads. Tridem axles offer better weight distribution and soil protection and are therefore ideal for heavy loads and sensitive soils.

What hydraulic power does a tractor need for a dump truck?

The hydraulic power required depends on the size of the dump truck. Many models require a hydraulic pump with a flow rate of at least 40 to 60 l/min. However, particularly large dump trucks can also have higher requirements.

Which tires are recommended for dump trucks?

Wide or low-pressure tires are ideal for agricultural use, as they minimize soil compaction.

How often does a dump truck need to be serviced?

Regular maintenance is crucial for a long service life. This includes checking the hydraulic hoses, relubricating the axles and checking the brake system. All relevant components should be checked, especially before and after intensive use.
