A dump truck is a large vehicle designed to transport loose materials such as sand, gravel, or dirt. It features a bed that can be raised at the front, allowing the contents to be dumped out easily at a construction site or other locations. Dump trucks are commonly used in the construction, mining, and landscaping industries. These trucks come in various sizes and configurations, including standard dump trucks, articulated dump trucks, and transfer dump trucks. Each type serves different purposes based on the load capacity and terrain. Dump trucks play a crucial role in moving heavy materials efficiently.
