Dump Trailer Rental in Troy, IL

Why Rent a Dump Trailer?

If you need to haul and unload heavy materials for a project in Troy or the surrounding Metro East area, a dump trailer can make loading, transportation, and unloading easier. The hydraulic lift allows you to raise the trailer bed and dump the material at the destination instead of unloading it by hand. When you rent from our Troy, IL location, you can use the trailer according to your rental period rather than coordinating a dumpster delivery and pickup schedule.

Homeowners use them for yard cleanups, clearing out brush and limbs, and hauling renovation debris from a remodel. Landscapers and property owners use them to move dirt, gravel, mulch, and similar materials. Contractors can use them for construction debris removal and cleanup when a dump trailer better fits the project than a traditional dumpster.

Choosing the Right Dump Trailer Size

KD Trailer Rentals offers two dump trailer sizes. The right option depends on the amount and weight of material you're hauling and the towing capacity of your vehicle.

The 5x10 dump trailer has a 6,000 lb capacity and is the smaller option for projects involving lighter loads or smaller quantities of material.

The 7x14 dump trailer has a 7,000 lb capacity when towed by a 1/2-ton truck and up to 12,000 lbs when towed by a 3/4-ton vehicle or larger. Its larger size and higher capacity make it the option to consider when you're hauling heavier or larger loads.

Both dump trailers require a 2 5/16-inch ball hitch, a 7-pin plug, and a brake controller.

How Much Does a Dump Trailer Cost to Rent?

Dump trailer prices at KD are flat daily and weekly rates with no mileage fees. The 5x10 dump trailer is $140 per day Monday through Thursday, $160 per day Friday through Sunday, or $750 for a full week. The 7x14 dump trailer is $180 per day Monday through Thursday, $200 per day Friday through Sunday, or $1,000 for a full week.

When you're comparing how much a dump trailer costs, the main driver is which size fits your load. The 5x10 is the lower-cost option and covers most residential projects. The 7x14 costs a bit more per day but gives you more capacity and deck space, so it can save you a second trip on bigger jobs. Either way, you're paying a flat rental rate — not a per-ton disposal fee or a dumpster delivery charge.

Towing Requirements

Both dump trailers require a 2 5/16-inch ball hitch, a 7-pin trailer plug, and a functioning brake controller. The towing vehicle must also be properly rated for the trailer and the loaded weight of your material. The 7x14 dump trailer has a 7,000 lb capacity when towed by a 1/2-ton vehicle and up to 12,000 lbs when towed by a 3/4-ton vehicle or larger. If you are not sure whether your vehicle is set up to tow, our towing requirements guide walks you through exactly what to check.
