Bottom Dumps | MATE, Inc.

In operation, this trailer is completely unique from the end dumps. The bottom dump unloads from a clamshell gate underneath the trailer, and does not require a hoist or "wet kit" to operate. Any truck designed to pull a semitrailer can tow this model as it requires only "truck air" for operation. Commonly used for road work (windrowwing) or applications requiring dumping into a hopper.
