Diy trailer tarp

[emr]

We recently bought a 6x10 dump trailer and I want to put a tarp system on it. It has the front and back brackets welded on for a professionally made tarp. I am trying to save some money and use the screen from my kids trampoline. I think the screen material will work nicely but I need to figure out how I can permanently mount it on my trailer so I can quickly and easily unroll it. Has anyone done this already and have any tips or suggestions?

That's a good idea. I haven't tried myself but thought I would suggest attaching a piece of pvc pipe to the end. Have about six inches on each side sticking out and a person on each side can easily roll and un roll it. At last you could get some pvc clamps and lock into to place when loaded. Like a half a c clamp upside down at the back of your trailer if that makes sense. Of course probably about 4 d-ring tie downs on each side.

I found some plans online where they use 2 different sizes of pvc and nessle them inside of each other and the tarp wraps up in there as well.

Pvc pipe seems to be the way to go.....
