I hate the dumping feature on lawn trailers.

Maybe it works okay for people with "lawns"...but our driveway has enough bumps to trigger the dump feature while moving, which is why I modified ours to never dump.

It was easy to drill a hole where the dump lever slides in and out. A short bolt with a couple of washers and a nut keeps it in no-dump mode for good.
