Dump Truck Vinyl Coated Mesh Tarp 5 ft 6 in x 14 ft - Durable Cover

In this review the Mytee Products 5 ft 6 in x 14 ft dump truck vinyl coated mesh tarp is assessed for contractors and truck owners who need a purpose-built cover that balances airflow and load containment. The bottom line: it is best for users who want a mid-weight, ventilated tarp with reinforced pockets and frequent grommet points, because the coated 11 x 11 mesh gives roughly 50% shade while the vinyl pockets and reinforced hems provide a secure fit without adding excessive weight.

Key Features

• Size: The 5 ft 6 in x 14 ft footprint fits standard small-to-mid dump beds and delivers edge-to-edge coverage for many commercial trucks.
• Coated 11 x 11 mesh: The breathable mesh yields a 50% shade rate so loose materials vent instead of building wind sail while still keeping debris contained.
• Top 5 in vinyl pockets: The heavy 18 oz vinyl pockets at the top provide a tough anchor point for securing the tarp over the cab or frame.
• Bottom mesh pockets with grommets: 2-1/2 in 10 oz PVC mesh pockets on the rear end accept an anti-sail bar or bungee to keep the tail secure during travel.
• Reinforced hems and brass grommets: All hems are backed with 2 in polyester webbing and solid #4 brass grommets are clinched every two feet for frequent tie-down options and long-term seam strength.
• Practical build: The combination of vinyl, PVC mesh, and clinched grommets balances strength and ease of handling for day-to-day use on a jobsite.

Who It's For

The tarp is aimed at landscapers, haulers, and construction crews who need a ventilated cover that resists tearing and allows material to breathe while in transit. Its reinforced top pockets and frequent grommets suit crews that secure loads with bars, bungee cords, or straps and need reliable tie points.

It is less appropriate for users who require a fully waterproof, blackout cover for liquid or fine dust containment; the 50% shade mesh lets air and some fine particles pass. Also, buyers seeking a heavy-duty, no-compromise tarp for extremely abrasive loads should compare thicker all-vinyl options.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good balance of ventilation and containment thanks to the coated 11 x 11 mesh.
• Strong anchor points with 5 in 18 oz vinyl top pockets and rear PVC mesh pockets with grommets.
• Reinforced hems and brass grommets every two feet provide numerous tie-down locations and seam durability.
• Easy to handle and install, with many customers noting quick fit and functionality.

Cons

• Durability reports are mixed; some users report longer life while others experienced issues within a month, so heavy abrasive use may shorten lifespan.
• Not waterproof - the 50% shade mesh is ventilated by design, so it will not stop water or fine dust completely.

Our Verdict

The Mytee coated mesh tarp is a practical, value-oriented cover for truck operators who prioritize airflow and convenient tie-down points.

For many landscapers and haulers it represents a sensible balance of functionality and handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this tarp stop debris and prevent sail?
The coated mesh contains most loose material and the rear PVC pockets with grommets allow an anti-sail bar or bungee to reduce lift, but it is ventilated so it will not be airtight.

How often are grommets spaced?
Solid #4 brass grommets are clinched approximately every two feet along the hems for multiple tie-down options.

Is the bottom pocket material the same as the top?
No, the top 5 in pockets are 18 oz vinyl while the bottom rear pocket is 2-1/2 in 10 oz PVC mesh, and pocket size may vary slightly due to hemming.
