Digging in Soft Sand

What happens here

After the dump trailer is fully loaded, secure any covers or tarps if necessary. Connect the trailer to the pickup truck and drive to the designated dumping location. Once at the location, position the trailer and use the remote control to activate the hydraulic telescoping hoist, raising the trailer bed to dump the sand. Observe the material being dumped and clear any obstructions. Ensure the trailer gate is clean after dumping, as sand can become embedded and prevent proper latching.

we got space we got plenty of space but she's maxed out on weight right there this sand is a heavy load man oh yeah oh yeah that's a load all right let's go on down the road you know it's actually kind of deceiving this trailer because this is one of those dump trailers with the high sides most dump trailers start right where that fold is that's the tip typically the top of them so this and this trailer is also 16 foot long so she's deaf end with this heavier material what i was saying is is because the actual granulars the reason is so heavy the granulars pack tighter than they do with different kinds of material where there could be more air voids inside of them so sand typically is going to be one of your heavier materials and it was pretty wet so it makes it even heavier yet [Music] so my goal today is to get three loads of this material in and up at the top i eventually got to get it down to the bottom but i had i have tried to drive directly down there didn't work so hot but luckily i was in a dodge no i mean i barely got out she was that that dump trailer was buried with the box straight up in the air i mean it was she's saying she's sick so it's safer for us to dump it on the top but i gotta get it down to the bottom and i can't tear that grass up because of that whole lake side there and this time of year there's no way that it's going to be restored so i've got to get the material delivered and then get it down to the bottom but that's not today i just want to get the material there and ready to go so one of the things i've got to do with this dump trailer is really clean the gate because there's a section right where the gate closes that it meets the dump trailer that has to seal but with this sand that just embeds in there so i gotta get in there and use my nose pickers to get all them crevices cleaned out otherwise the gates won't latch the right way
