    I agree with Cummins as far as more information and pictures. Is it a goose neck or bumper tow, type of flooring, gauge of steel, etc. The other consideration is the personal benefit you get from the trailer. Personally a dump trailer is of no value to me because all of the yards I visit use magnets to remove my metal and my loads are often mixed.

    For comparison, I have $ 1,000 plus labor into a tub trailer 6 x 26 built from an old stock trailer. The axles are rated at seven tons. Given the fact you used it for two years for free and regardless of condition, I would offer $ 2,000 for it. That is what I figure my tub trailer is worth.

    Give back more to this world than we take.
