I have a 38.5' Merritt and loading at the bin you can get 920 on it without oops and getting some on the ground. I think 880bu is 80k

I once hauled 1360 on my hopper bottom. I was finishing up the last bin of soybeans and didn't want to make 2 trips. I also had 4, 5 gallon buckets of beans in the sleeper of the truck, my largest load to date.

If it is a big trailer, a lot. If the trailer is smaller, not so much.
