D" Wheel Casters for Commercial Dumpsters
D-wheel casters use a dual-wheel design — two wheels in a single yoke — for higher load capacity and longer wear life than single-wheel casters. PRT stocks D-wheel casters in standard load ratings for commercial dumpsters. Fits Wastequip, JV Cram-a-lot, and more..
What this page covers
The D-wheel design splits the container load across two wheels in a single yoke. The result is roughly double the load rating of an equivalent single-wheel caster, with the same overall footprint. Most operators choose D-wheels for heavy commercial dumpsters (6-yard and above), compactor receiver containers, and any high-cycle route where single-wheel casters wear out fast.
PRT stocks D-wheel casters in standard load ratings from 500 lbs to 1,500 lbs per caster, with bolt-on and weld-on mounting options.
How to choose
Match by load rating, wheel diameter, mount type (bolt-on or weld-on), and caster type (swivel or rigid).
Send PRT a photo of your existing caster with the container model number and we'll confirm fitment.

Frequently asked questions
When should I choose D-wheel casters over single-wheel?
When load capacity matters more than swivel maneuverability — heavy 6-8 yard dumpsters, compactor receiver containers, and any container that wears out single-wheel casters within 12 months.
Are D-wheel casters more expensive than single-wheel?
Yes, typically 30-50% more. The premium is justified for high-load applications because the longer wear life often pays back the difference within a year.
What load rating do I need for an 8-yard dumpster?
Divide the loaded weight by 4 (casters) and add a 25% safety margin. Most 8-yard front-load dumpsters need 1,000-1,500 lb D-wheel casters per corner.
Do D-wheel casters fit standard caster mounting plates?
Yes. PRT D-wheel casters use standard NEMA mounting hole patterns. Direct bolt-on replacement for single-wheel casters using the same mounting plate.
