Frequently Asked Questions
What size truck do I need to tow a Riverbend U-Cart trailer?
A half-ton pickup (e.g., Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado 1500) or a full-size SUV with a proper class receiver and trailer brake setup is required. Loaded trailers weigh approximately 4,000 lbs per yard.
How long do I have to pour before the concrete sets?
Our rotating drum trailers keep the mix active during transit. You typically have 60 to 90 minutes from batching to complete your pour, depending on weather and mix additives.
Do you supply the trailer hitch?
We recommend bringing your own hitch setup, but we have insert adapters and standard hitch balls available at our yard if needed.
