Nice overview of the belt market from one of my competitors. People ask about a belt and I describe a Western Express Belt trailer as the “Swiss Army Knife” of trailers. The design allows for quick, safe loading and unloading. No worries on uneven ground or overhead obstacles. Detachable hopper chute makes unloading in to augers simple and clean.

Thank you for the interview Jared. It was a pleasure to be on the show. I am looking forward to future shows together. All, if you have a need for a rugged workhorse of a trailer please give Trinity a call. We are here to help you move commodies, fertilizers, recycled goods, mulch, and refuse safer and easier.

Carry over is a concern. Wiper blades on the bottom of belts help prevent this as well as scraper bars at the rear of the trailer as the flaps return to the front. Piling is no problem and a removable chute attachment directs fine product directly in to the pit or auger.
