Understanding Dump Trucks
and Their Importance

Dump trucks are essential for transporting construction materials like dirt, rocks, sand, asphalt, and other heavy equipment from one location to another. A standard dump truck consists of a truck chassis with a dump body mounted on the frame. The bed is raised by a vertical hydraulic ram mounted under the front of the body or a horizontal hydraulic ram and lever arrangement between the frame rails, with the back of the bed hinged at the rear of the truck. The tailgate can swing up on top hinges or utilize a High Lift Tailgate format, where pneumatic rams lift the gate open and above the dump body.

Dump trucks are indispensable for moving loose materials such as sand, gravel, or demolition waste for both construction and residential projects. Essentially, a dump truck is a powerful tool for large-scale jobs. At Makkas Trucking, LLC, we specialize in hauling substantial construction-grade materials, often stepping in when a regular pickup truck isn't up to the task. Our fleet of dump trucks is equipped to handle these heavy loads, ensuring efficient and reliable service every time.
