BWise 7 x 12 Low Profile Dump Trailer Ladder Ramps
$10,299.00
The BWise 7×12 low profile dump trailer (DT712LP-LE-12) is the bread-and-butter contractor hauler: low deck height for easy loading, wide enough to fit standard pallets, and rated to handle a full load of crushed stone or topsoil. The combo gate plus slide-out ladder ramps converts between dump-only and equipment-loadable in seconds, useful when one trailer has to do both jobs in a day.

- 12,000 lb GVWR with 9,100 lb payload (2,900 lb empty weight, lighter than the high-side variant)
- 81 in. wide x 12 ft long deck, low-profile (between-fender) bed for easy side loading
- Dual 6,000 lb leaf-spring axles, electric brakes, ST235/80R16 radial tires
- Single hydraulic cylinder, 2-5/16-inch adjustable coupler, D-rings, stake pockets

Why a Combo Gate?
The combo gate on this BWise low profile dump trailer gives you three operating modes from one rear-gate setup: full barn-door swing for normal dumping, spreader mode for distributing material along a driveway or path, and ladder-ramp mode for loading equipment. A single-mode gate locks you into one use case; the combo is the working contractor’s choice for trailers that have to flex between landscape, snow, and equipment hauling.
What Can You Haul With This Trailer?
- 2 cubic yards of crushed stone (about 5,600 lb) with capacity to spare
- 3 to 4 cubic yards of mulch, soil, or compost
- A loaded skid steer (Bobcat S70 = 4,400 lb empty, room for attachments)
- Up to 8,000 lb of asphalt millings for paving prep
- Snow and ice-melt for plow operations

Frequently Asked Questions
What does “low profile” mean?
The bed sits BETWEEN the wheel wells (not over them), which gives a 22-24 inch deck height versus 35+ inches on a deckover. Low profile means easier side loading and a shorter, less-steep ramp angle when using ladder ramps. Trade-off: bed width is limited to 81 inches between fenders versus 84+ inches on a deckover.
Single cylinder vs scissor lift on this size dump?
Single cylinder is simpler, cheaper, and tilts to about 45 degrees, which is enough for 95 percent of contractor loads. Scissor lift tilts the entire bed evenly and reaches a higher dump angle (60+ degrees) but adds about 1,500 dollars to the price. For mixed contractor work, single cylinder is the practical choice.
Will a half-ton truck tow this trailer fully loaded?
12,000 lb GVWR is at the upper edge of half-ton tow ratings. A late-model F-150 with the heavy-duty payload package can handle it, but for full-load runs in hilly terrain, a three-quarter-ton (F-250 / 2500) is the safer choice.
