Big Silage Trailer Unloads From Both Sides

Big Silage Trailer Unloads From Both Sides TRUCKS Conversions 27-4-25 After over a decade of making silage-hauling equipment, brothers Randy and Rick Schwindt have developed what they say is the safest and fastest unloading trailer on the market. The Schwindt brothers business is located in Utica, Kansas where Rick heads up the manufacturing plant and Randy handles sales. "Hoist-operated dump boxes require a level and firm dump site, and chain-unload boxes can be extremely slow and expensive to maintain. Our new SideChuter unloads almost anywhere, is extremely fast, and requires minimal maintenance." After over two years of work, the Schwindts came up with a trailer that incorporates an inverted "V" floor that's angled at 50 degrees. The trailer has two independent sets of side doors. The lower door is hinged at the bottom and makes an extended ramp when lowered. This moves material away from the tires when dumping. The upper door is hinged at the top and is also opened with a set of hydraulic cylinders. "With this design you can unload on-the-go on uneven terrain because the load slides evenly down the "V" floor and out both sides of the trailer," Rick explains. The SideChuter trailer is 36 ft. in length and can be ordered with either spring or air-ride suspension. It holds up to 30 tons of corn silage and unloads in a very short distance. "Since the silage unloads into two separate, even plies, it's much easier to push the load up. And since this trailer unloads in less than 10 seconds, the packer tractor isn't sitting idle waiting for the truck to get out of its way." The SideChuter sells for $39,750 equipped with air ride suspension. Deduct $2,500 for spring ride. Contact the company for a free video of the revolutionary trailer in action.
