Introducing The Hurricane Dump Trailer

Hurricanes are the most powerful storms we experience in Florida and along the East Coast. Their strong, rotating winds can uproot trees, down power lines, and scatter debris over a wide area. To handle the cleanup after the storm, you’ll need a trailer that is equally tough.

Bigfoot is excited to introduce the Hurricane Dump Trailer, the mother of all goosenecks. This is not only our first gooseneck model, but it is also the strongest and sturdiest trailer we’ve ever built. Handcrafted in our Florida factory, the Hurricane Dump Trailer flexes its muscles with impressive features that make storm cleanup easier. Additionally, it is just as useful for moving earth or materials for construction, landscaping, and agricultural jobs.

Key Features of Our Hurricane Dump Trailer

With a robust 25K GVWR and a 16,000-pound payload capacity, the Hurricane Dump Trailer is a powerhouse. It’s designed to handle massive amounts of debris, earth, and materials for any heavy-duty job, ensuring you can rely on its strength and durability.

• Featuring Dexter Oil Bath Torflex Axles, the Hurricane Dump Trailer offers a smooth ride and unmatched reliability. These premium axles, with their rubber torsion suspension and 10-year warranty, ensure you can trust your trailer to perform on every job.
• Unrivaled Construction: Hand-built, the trailer features seamless, skillfully welded, and pre-primed floors and walls made from premium 3/16” plate steel, ensuring a trailer that can handle the most demanding jobs.

Hurricane Preparedness Checklist

• Plan Ahead: Develop a family communication plan and a clear evacuation strategy. Know your local evacuation zones and routes, and decide on an out-of-town contact person everyone can check in with.
• Hurricane Survival Kit: Assemble an emergency kit with at least a three-day supply of essentials. Your kit should include water, non-perishable food, a battery-powered or hand-crank radio, flashlights, extra batteries, a first-aid kit, and a 7-day supply of any necessary medications. Don’t forget to take important documents and extra cash.
• Secure Your Home or Business: Trim trees and clear gutters to prevent damage. Secure or bring inside any outdoor furniture, trash cans, or other loose items that could become dangerous projectiles in high winds. If you don’t have storm shutters, consider boarding up windows with plywood. Do not use tape on windows, as it is ineffective and can create larger, more dangerous shards of glass.
• Review Insurance Policies: Check your homeowners or renters insurance to ensure you have adequate coverage. Remember that standard policies do not cover flood damage, so consider purchasing a separate flood insurance policy well in advance of a storm, as there is often a waiting period.
• Stay Informed: Sign up for local emergency alerts and warnings. Download a weather app from a reliable source like FEMA or NOAA to receive real-time updates.
