Provided is a tipping trailer with a chassis 2 having a drawbar and an axle with wheels 6, (8, Figure 3); and a load-carrying container 12 mounted to the chassis 2 via front 14 and rear 16 pivotal attachments. The attachments 14, 16 are selectively releasable from the chassis 2 such that the container 12 can be tilted rearwardly about the rear pivot 16 when the front pivot 14 is released; and tilted forwardly about the front pivot 14 when the rear pivot 16 is released. A belt conveyor 20 may be mounted on the chassis 2 near the front end of the container 12, thereby allowing material to be distributed to a side of the chassis 2 when the container 12 is tilted forwardly. The container 12 may be tilted by a telescopic ram 22; and the rear end of the container 12 may have a gate 18 that can be opened to allow the discharge of material when the container 12 is tilted rearwardly.
