Abstract: A load carrier (10) for transporting logging residues comprises a horizontal frame (14) and a load-accommodating rack (15) mounted on the frame. The rack (15) includes a rack bottom (20) and a pair of upstanding rack side members (21, 22) mounted on the rack bottom along respective opposite sides of the rack bottom. An upstanding rack support (23) is provided on the frame (14) along a longitudinal side thereof. An upper end of one of the rack side members (21) is pivotally connected to the top end of the rack support (23). The rack (15) is pivotable relative to the rack support (23) and the frame (15) through an angle greater than 90° about a horizontal axis between a lower load-accommodating position with the rack bottom (20) resting on the frame (14) and a position for gravity dumping of a load of logging residues held in the rack (15) onto the ground by the side of the load carrier.
