    SmithCo debuts The BRUTE CP30 construction pup side dump trailer

    March 21, 2025
    The new dump trailer can be pulled with off-road construction power units or tractors and features a 30-ton capacity with flotation tires for rough terrain

    SmithCo Mfg. has introduced The BRUTE CP30 side dump trailer. Re-engineered to be a more robust version of the original CP30 construction pup, The BRUTE CP30 offers faster load times and capabilities for more strategic dumping, saves on maintenance costs, and requires minimal training to operate, the company said.

    “There’s nothing like The BRUTE CP30 on the market,” explained Scott Lovell, SmithCo president and CEO. “Operators can haul more in less time and be more strategic about dumping with windrowing or stockpiling. Any business running scrapers or haul trucks looking to boost their bottom line needs to look at this trailer. This is one tough trailer that’s easy to use.”

    The BRUTE CP30 can be pulled with off-road construction power units or tractors. The upfront and ongoing maintenance costs are also significantly lower than traditional site prep equipment. It provides a 30-ton capacity with flotation tires designed to handle tough terrain. A 2” drawbar pin-type hitch is standard, but scraper-type adapters are also available. Operators can run a single 30-ton unit in tight conditions or hook them in tandem or triple combinations to move larger amounts of materials.

    A more robust off-road trailer

    The trailer is also built to withstand tough working conditions. SmithCo redesigned the tub hinges to increase their longevity past the company’s 15-year design goal. A new G-channel frame adds strength to the trailer and eliminates the need for counterweights. The tongue shock absorber and suspension enhancements provide less undulation after hitting a bump and a more comfortable ride in the tractor. It also includes a hydraulic front hitch to easily adjust the trailer to a level operating condition and easily adjusts for hooking to a lead trailer. The hydraulic landing leg and more clearance adds to ease of use. Options for side extensions and poly flop-out liners can increase capacity and make it easier to dump snow and other potentially sticky materials. Other key features of The BRUTE CP30 include:

    • The ability to dump toward either side and on uneven ground
    • A watertight tub to eliminate leaks
    • Strong tubs made from AR450 steel and 80/100 KSI steel frames
