The wagon is 13'7" so unless we were going to half dismantle it we needed to hire a drop deck hauler to bring it home as its a 3 hr one way drive,way too far to tow a wagon that's not new anymore. They set 6x6's along each side and backed it over the deck than hooked onto it with the truck and raised it up than chained it down. Sure made an easy way to get it back off too. They needed a lead truck to cross the 8 mi Confederation bridge to PEI Canada. This dump holds 750 cu' including the roof compared to the 450 cu' our old one holds which is why we had to raise the end and sides of our dump truck earlier on. This bigger dump will make quite a few less stops while chopping and less trips down the road with the truck.

They still use one of them at one of the farms where I hung out as a kid. They chop directly into the trucks for the most part, but when chopping forage at some of their further out farms they pull a wagon behind to blow into when a truck is late. Now if your spout matches up you will be good to go faster.
 
(quoted from post at 12:44:09 04/19/17) oh I know,it dropped to 12'5 with the wheels hanging over the sides

I don't understand how it becomes lower by raising it six inches.
