MAXX-D Trailers in Denver, Colorado
Built in Brookston, Texas. Stocked in Commerce City.
MAXX-D Trailers has been building in Texas since September 1999, when founder Allen Kornelsen started the company as Maxey Trailers Mfg. More than 100,000 trailers later, it is still family owned and every unit is still built in Brookston, Texas. We keep a working selection of MAXX-D trailers on our Commerce City lot, and the mix leans toward what Colorado contractors actually ask for: dumps, roll-offs, and heavy gooseneck haulers.
Every trailer also gets a six-step powder coat primer and paint process before it leaves the plant. That finish matters more here than it does in a lot of places. Mag chloride on Front Range winter roads is hard on steel, so paint that holds up is not a small detail.
Popular MAXX-D Trailers We Stock
Telescopic Dump Trailers
Our 7x14 and 7x16 telescopic dumps run 8K axles and use a telescoping cylinder instead of a scissor hoist. You get a steadier lift under a heavy, wet load and a taller dump angle when the last of it needs to slide out.
Scissor Hoist Dump Trailers
The 7x14 dump on 8K axles is the everyday unit. Dirt, rock, asphalt millings, demo debris. Rear slide-in ramps and a tarp kit come standard from MAXX-D, so you are not buying extras just to start working.
Gooseneck Dumps and Roll-Offs
Step up to a gooseneck and you gain capacity along with a much better tow. We stock the 7x16 telescopic gooseneck dump and the 7x14 gooseneck roll-off. The roll-off swaps between bins and a flat deck, which is what makes it pay for dumpster rental and cleanup work.
Roll-Off Bins
We keep 14 foot MAXD roll-off bins on the lot so you can run more bins than trailers. Drop a full one, grab an empty, keep the truck moving.
Tandem Dual Deckover Equipment Haulers
The 8.5x32 and 8.5x34 hydraulic dovetail goosenecks are rated at 25.9K GVWR. Push a button, the tail lays down, and you drive the machine on. No ramps to wrestle and no ramp angle problems with a low clearance skid steer or a mini excavator.
Why MAXX-D Trailers Hold Up
MAXX-D backs 2024 and newer trailers with a 5 year structural warranty covering the frame rails, tongue or neck, and cross members, plus 2 years bumper to bumper on parts and labor. That is real coverage on the parts that fail expensively. Beyond the warranty, the build is straightforward Texas steel with a powder coat finish made for weather, and the company is moving its lineup to Dexter axles. You can see the full lineup and specs on the MAXX-D Trailers site, and we will help you match a trailer to your truck and your work.

MAXX-D Questions We Get at Our Commerce City Lot
What MAXX-D trailers does Jayhawk Trailers stock?
MAXX-D is our dump specialist. We stock standard bumper-pull dumps on 8K axles, telescopic dumps, gooseneck telescopic and gooseneck roll-off dumps, roll-off bins, and tandem-dual gooseneck deckover equipment haulers.
The MAXX-D units live at our Commerce City lot on E. 72nd Ave. If you are coming from the north, call first and we will tell you what is on the ground before you drive down.
What is a roll-off dump trailer and who actually needs one?
A roll-off carries interchangeable bins that you set down on the job and leave. One trailer services several sites, so a remodeler can drop a bin at a tear-out, haul another to the landfill, and come back for the first without renting a dumpster.
It is the right buy for demolition, roofing, and property maintenance crews. For hauling dirt and gravel back and forth all day, a fixed box dumps faster.
Telescopic or scissor hoist on a MAXX-D dump?
Telescopic cylinders lift to a steeper dump angle and clear loose material like mulch, chips, and dry gravel faster. Scissor hoists put their leverage in the middle of the stroke, which is what you want under wet clay, road base, and concrete rubble.
Around Denver most contractors are moving heavy, sticky material at least part of the year, so think about your worst load rather than your typical one.
Do I need a USDOT number to run a MAXX-D dump in Colorado?
For commercial use inside Colorado, yes, once the truck and trailer combination rates over 16,001 pounds. C.R.S. 42-4-235 sets that intrastate threshold and the number carries a CO suffix for in-state operations.
A gooseneck dump behind a one-ton is well past it. The federal 10,001-pound rule people quote applies to interstate work and is not the number that catches you here.
Do MAXX-D dump trailers need brakes on both axles?
Yes, and they come that way. C.R.S. 42-4-223 requires brakes on all wheels at 3,000 pounds gross, and a dump trailer passes that empty. Both axles on our MAXX-D units are braked from the factory.
Set your controller gain with the trailer loaded, not empty. A gain dialed in on an empty box will not hold a full one coming down a grade.
How do I keep a MAXX-D dump from corroding through a Colorado winter?
The magnesium chloride on Front Range roads is the problem, not the payload. It collects on the frame, the hoist, the hydraulic lines, and the wiring, and it keeps working long after the road dries out.
Rinse the underside and inside the box after winter runs, wipe and lightly oil the cylinder rod, and repair gouges in the bed floor early. A dump trailer's life is decided by its box floor.
