DESCRIPTION
Hopper bottom trailers like the Demco 40' model are essential for agricultural logistics, efficiently transporting grains and similar materials. Designed with a spacious open top for quick loading, this trailer also features a Shur-Co manual roll tarp to prevent spillage during transit.

From the field to the grain elevator, this trailer seamlessly connects to grain carts, making it a critical component in modern agricultural operations.
