Abstract: Ready loading and unloading of objects are provided for by providing for alternating tilting of a bed of a dual tilt trailer in a first loading direction and in a second unloading direction. Ideally, the loading and unloading occur at opposing corners of the dual tilt trailer. This provides for a diagonal orientation of the object during all contact with the dual tilt trailer. Various safety features ensure safe operation of the dual tilt trailer. These include a locking assembly which locks the bed in a level transport orientation during the loading operation when the bed moves from the loading tilted orientation to the level transport orientation and which locks the bed in an unloading tilted orientation during the unloading operation when the bed moves from the level transport orientation to the unloading tilted orientation.
