About Dump Truck Trucking

Dump trucks haul construction materials — sand, gravel, dirt, aggregate, demolition debris, and asphalt — for construction sites, road projects, and excavation work. Most loads are short-haul and billed hourly or per-ton. Rates are highest near active development zones and infrastructure projects.
