Give Your Back a Break

Meet the Big Tex 70SR Dump Trailer

Every property owner knows the loads that eat a Saturday: mulch by the yard, gravel for the drive, brush from the back forty. The 70SR is the trailer that ends the shoveling-out part — a light-duty tandem-axle dump with a straight-ram hydraulic hoist, a 60″ × 10′ bed, and a 7,000 lb GVWR that leaves 5,270 lbs for payload. About three cubic yards fits inside its 20″ steel sides, the 43° dump angle clears the bed in one clean motion, and the whole package weighs just 1,730 lbs empty — gentle on tow vehicles and easy in the driveway. It’s the dump trailer for hardworking homeowners, farmers, and go-getters.

One Motion, Empty Bed

A 43° Dump Angle That Actually Clears the Load

Shallow dumps leave you raking the bed; the 70SR’s steep 43° angle lets gravity finish the job — even damp mulch and clingy topsoil slide clean. The straight-ram hydraulic system powers the lift from a battery kept safe in a lockable box with an onboard charger, so the hoist is ready before the first load and after the last.

Built Light, Built Right

A 7,000 lb GVWR Package That Tows Behind Almost Anything

Twin 3,500 lb premium cambered axles with quick-lubricating hubs carry the 70SR’s 7,000 lb rating, with forward self-adjusting electric brakes on all hubs — a braking spec many light dumps skip. The 16-gauge smooth steel floor and 20″ sides ride on a 5″ channel frame with cross-members on 17″ centers, and at 1,730 lbs empty, the whole trailer disappears behind a half-ton pickup.

The Right Small Details

Double Doors, Four D-Rings, and a Sealed Harness

Double rear doors give you the same flexibility as the bigger dumps — spread through one, dump through both, or swing them clear for flush backing. Four 5/8″ D-rings inside the bed secure the occasional equipment load, and an optional ramp package makes that official. Recessed LED lighting rides in a sealed harness built for cold-weather duty, the stamped A-frame coupler and 2,000 lb top-wind jack keep hitching simple, and the professional black finish matches its bigger siblings on the lot.

The Brand Behind the Build

Why Choose Big Tex?

Big Tex has been building professional-grade trailers since 1982 and bills itself as America’s #1 professional-grade trailer — a claim backed by heavy structural steel, a factory parts network, and warranty coverage in writing: a 1-year limited warranty on materials and workmanship plus a 3-year limited structural warranty on the frame. The 70SR brings that quality all the way down to the lightest dump in the family.

Quick Answers Before You Order

Big Tex 70SR FAQs

These are some of the most common questions shoppers ask about the Big Tex 70SR before they decide to order. These FAQs break down what the 70SR is, how it’s built, pricing basics, and how ordering works through our dealership.

Is the 70SR big enough for real yard and farm work?

For light-duty hauling, absolutely — 5,270 lbs of payload and roughly three cubic yards of volume covers mulch runs, gravel, topsoil, brush, and cleanouts, with a 43° dump angle that empties the bed in one motion.

With a 7,000 lb GVWR and just 1,730 lbs of empty weight, most half-ton pickups and many mid-size trucks handle it comfortably — we’ll check your tow rating against the loaded math before you buy.
Yes — forward self-adjusting electric brakes on both axles come standard, a spec plenty of light-duty dumps skip.
Pricing depends on the length and options you spec, and our in-stock units are priced to be competitive. Call or visit Mentor Golf Carts & Trailers for our current best price — and ask about financing while you’re at it.
Yes. If the exact build you want isn’t on the lot, we’ll place a factory order to your spec, quote the current lead time up front, and prep it when it lands — with Ohio pickup or nationwide delivery.
