How heavy are dump trucks?

Dump trucks are pretty huge, does anyone know the typical weight of a dump truck or what makes them heavy?

 

[John Calvin Lewis]

Hey Kevin! Dump trucks can vary quite a bit in weight. Smaller, single-axle dump trucks might weigh around 20,000 pounds, while larger, heavy-duty models can exceed 80,000 pounds when fully loaded. The weight depends on factors like the truck's size, axle configuration, and the materials it's carrying. For more detailed info, you might find this article helpful:
