[QUOTE="skyhightree1, post: 1113737, member: 13268"] To answer your question I have a truck i can deliver 3 cords of wood on what i do is stack each cord individually and use a steel plate behind each cord that is locked into place. if someone wants one cord open the steel plate its hinged and dump offf that load. However with grain its a whole different ball game and alot of work to figure out how much you have dropped whether it be too little or too much and worry about cheating yourself or the person or your next customer. The easiest solution is get you a portable scale like DOT has and weight your truck as your dumping which will quickly get old or do it the old fashion tried and true way of hauling one load for one customer at a time. If I understand your question correctly as in you keep 10 tons on a truck and only want to off load 3. First off do you have a CDL ? trucks that haul 10 tons all I have ever had or seen require a CDL just remember if the gvwr is over 26,000 you will need a CDL. [/QUOTE]
