Common Questions About the Big Tex 70SR
What is the benefit of a tandem-axle dump trailer like the 70SR? Unlike single-axle dumps, the tandem-axle setup on the 70SR provides significantly better stability and weight distribution when traveling at highway speeds toward Saratoga Springs. It also offers redundant braking power with electric brakes on both axles, giving you more control when hauling heavy loads of stone or dirt.

Can this trailer be used to haul equipment like a zero-turn mower? Absolutely. While it’s a dump trailer first, the 60-inch width and internal J-hooks make it a versatile utility tool. It’s a popular choice for hauling ATVs or professional mowers to job sites in Caroga Lake, though you should always verify your equipment’s width before loading.

How does the on-board battery charger work? The 70SR comes with a 5-amp 110V integrated charger. You simply plug a standard extension cord into the port on the side of the toolbox. This makes it incredibly easy to keep the battery topped off overnight so you have a full charge for a busy day of dumping in Schenectady.
