ABSTRACT:
A method for unloading a plurality of roll-off containers from a special trailer is disclosed. A plurality of six roll-off containers are stacked to form two similar nests of at least two containers each, with the lowermost container of each nest oriented in horizontal alignment and having its bottom rail resting upon the rollers of the trailer. The two nests of containers are placed upon the trailer in longitudinal juxtaposition for transportation purposes. Upon reaching the destination, the two nests of containers are unloaded by a single driver without requiring any external, additional equipment. During unloading, the trailer is backed and suddenly stopped in repeated stages to employ inertial forces to move the nests of containers relative to the trailer until the nests of containers travel the length of the trailer and drop upon the ground.
