“This is an important milestone in East’s history, illustrating our 45-year commitment to building quality trailers that deliver superior performance,” said Dave de Poincy, president. 

Today East has more than four standard dump trailer models with various axle configurations for use in a wide range of trailer applications. In addition, East offers hundreds of different custom options as well as a Genesis dump truck body.

After its debut at MATS, the trailer will become part of the Arms Trucking Company in East Claridon, Ohio, where it will be used in bulk hauling applications.
