What is a dump body?

Stake & Platform Bodies Bulk Materials Dump Bodies Hydraulic Systems Vocational Trucks

A dump body is designed to transport loose materials and unload them by hydraulically raising the front of the body so cargo slides out through the rear gate.

Dump bodies are widely used in construction, excavation, landscaping, municipalities, and agriculture for transporting materials such as gravel, sand, soil, mulch, asphalt, demolition debris, and snow.

Unlike platform or stake bodies, dump bodies are specifically engineered for repeated loading and controlled unloading of bulk materials. Hydraulic lifting systems, reinforced floors, heavy-duty tailgates, and durable body construction help withstand demanding vocational applications.

Selecting the appropriate dump body depends on payload requirements, material type, chassis compatibility, and expected operating conditions.

Morgan’s Dump Body product line is designed to support a range of commercial hauling applications where efficient unloading is essential.
