Thanks for the how-to! Ordering my roll offs next week. Graduating from dump trailers finally! I gave you and some others a shout out in my first video as well, always appreciate the content! 🇺🇸
Sorry for coming in late with the video lol but I have tried so many different ways and think this might be the best so far for me but I am always learning new tricks to try and make the job easier.
Awesome video and great tutorial on how that works! I’m also curious, does anything hold the back of the can down on the trailer? Or is it just the weight of the can that holds it down on the rails?
Ok so there is a tab on the back of the lonestar trailers that slide into a channel on all the lonestar trailers that hold the dumpsters down. Problem is, those tabs really screw with the dump angle of the dumpster and break off when you are dumping at an angle that sometimes is required and needed at the landfill. So I had the tabs cut off on my trailer. The weight of the dumpster alone is usually enough, add to it the locking mechanism on the front and the chains on both sides of the front of the dumpster will keep that dumpster from going anywhere!
@@AmericanAFDumpsters Thanks! Was always curious to how it’s held down in the back. It’s been great watching you grow and run your dumpster business, keep up the good work! Stay humble, hustle hard!
this might be a dump question but ive been leaving my truck in park loading and unloading the dumpster. my truck seems to roll alot tho. does this hurt my transmission.
It could. Never has for me but I have heard from some. If it’s a really heavy load, you can “walk” the truck meaning leave it in N if it’s level ground.
Gooseneck can take heavier loads as the weight is distributed better than a bumper pull, plus you can really jackknife and maneuver better with a gooseneck in tight spots.
@@AmericanAFDumpsters lol I'm sure it does. But I was saying before something bad happens, like it's snapping. Should last you a little longer. I. A tow truck driver and had it happen. You have great looking trailers. Wouldn't want it to slide off and cause damage.

I've subscribed! Thank you so much for the shoutout and I look forward to watching you grow and succeed in this business! Best of luck to you brother!
@@AmericanAFDumpsters thank you sir! Very much appreciated and stay safe out there!
After running roll off for almost over a month now, these would’ve been useful back then, but great pointers for loading the containers, keep it up!

@@AmericanAFDumpsters what if it’s not level ground and it’s on a hill ? Should we put the truck in reverse?
How do you find the rates to dump at landfills?
Pick up the phone 📞 👍🏼
How much do you charge for a dumpster like that ? I will start a business soon
In my area I charge $420 plus tax for a 20 yard
@ hey bro Ty is for the info .one more question is that price for certain days ? Or for a whole week
great info !!!! well done
Glad you enjoyed it
Why you go with gooseneck?
Gooseneck can take heavier loads as the weight is distributed better than a bumper pull, plus you can really jackknife and maneuver better with a gooseneck in tight spots.
What size is your truck?
This is a 2500 HEMI gasser
@ thanks. I just bought one of those recently. I plan on retiring in about a year or so. Kind of curious if this could be done as a side hustle.

Texas Pride and Udump are the same. Not the same as your set up.
No not the same, but I think what I meant was the concept is the same on how to pick up the cans...
