TippER Trailer - Traditional External Post
The Tipper is typically used for high volume operations. East V-shape cross members provide major performance advantages. It has more structural support. East refuse trailers have less unsupported space in the trailer floors. That translates into more support in top-loading operations, and more support if you run a forklift in the trailer.
No center crossbarNo center crossbar gets in the way in this tipping platform trailer. It's faster, cleaner and more even leading and compaction throughout the trailer.
STRONGER FLOOR
Other manufacturers use I-beam supports on a 14-inch center. The flooring of an East Tipper is supported by V-shaped cross members 9 inches apart. This means
it will have more support — front-to-rear — and less susceptibility to floor wave.

Competitors use either I-beam supports on a 14-inch center, or U-channel supports spaced 11 inches apart (Fig. 1). The flooring in an East tipping platform is supported by V-shaped cross members 9 inches apart (Fig. 2). This means an East tipping platform will have more even support — front-to-rear — and less susceptibility to floor wave. All with less cross members — and less weight than you would find on competitive tipping platform trailers.
East V-shape cross members provide a major performance advantage: More structural support. East refuse trailers have less unsupported space in the trailer floors. That translates into more support in top-loading operations, and more support if the customers run a fork lift into the trailer.
