Abstract
This invention is a rigid tarpping system installed on roll-off container trucks to cover and contain materials in transit. This tarpping system utilizes the raising and lowering operations of the truck's hoist to operate without requiring auxiliary electrical, hydraulic and/or pneumatic input or it can be fitted with optional equipment to operate independently of the truck's hoist system.
