I think a dump trailer is the way to go.  It'll haul a lot more weight (mine will carry 6 tons), is lower to the ground for loading for a delivery, and I still have my truck bed for carrying/hauling tools, chainsaws, gas, oil, etc......  when I'm not needing the trailer, it's detached and parked out back by the shop.  Very convenient for me.

What I've found so far is that most customers I've delivered to do not have a driveway that a trailer would be easy to manage in and out of. So in that respect, I like having the small dump truck. Easy to maneuver.

I'd never go back to a dump trailer.
