Tractor length? Kubota b3300 su w/fel/bh???

[super dave]

I've ordered my NEW b3300 su tractor n can't wait to pick it up. The reason I ask the length is I have a 16 ft Kaufman trailer but I need dirt,rock,mulch (ALOT of). So I've been looking at dump trailers. I need to know length of tractor with Fel n Bh in transport position. I'm hoping to get 14 ft trailer by resting fel on top of front wall of trailer. But think I will have to have at least a 16 in a gooseneck (more $$$$$ ugh!) . Any n all input would be appreciated! Also the dirt etc. is free but if I can't haul it myself delivery is very expensive and I can't get it free that way. So I guess buy another trailer, this will make 4, use it a couple of years then sell (ugh) n move on BUT I will keep my tractor

How far is this "free" dirt. Reason I ask is I have "free" use to two dump trucks. The will only haul 7 tons. I also have "free" use of a 14,000# dump trailer that can legally haul 9600# or about 5 tons. I have found that with all 3 if I need more than one load it's cheaper to hire it done with a quad axle that can haul 24 tons. It's $75 per hour and it would take me 4 trips with these dumps or 5 with the trailer. Time I figure fuel the economy of doing it yourself is not there.

I have a b3300su tlb. I can load it on my 16ft trailer...but it has to go on back first in order to get enough tongue weight. I have the hoe bucket on a platform that i put across the front part of the frame. Keep in mind that the hoe has to be lowered and strapped down....it cant be in the up position.
I pull it with a 2003 f-150 with the 5.4, 7700lb 16ft superior trailer and weight distributing hitch and usually within 25miles.

Ok, here is the deal. I have a 6.6x12 n a 6.6x16. The smaller trailer is used for my zero turn n my popo sxs, trailer is light n easy to pull. The 16 Kaufman is for bigger stuff but I feel I need it anymore. I'm looking at dump trailers n would like to get by with a 7 or 8 by 14. This will enable me hopefully to set the fel on top of the trailer(I would use some old dock bumpers to protect trailer). This DT (dump trailer) would be a gooseneck. I think it will pull better (truck is an 01 dodge sport plus 3/4 ton 4x4 quad cab 6sp manual ho that I have had since new n in the last couple of years beefing up, like the truck, it's a mustang gt w/4x4). To the first reply, I've priced delivery n u r right BUT I have the Tim Allen syndrome n modify everything n do most everything my self. I am 48 n retire in 8 years so this will give me tools for side work (love playing in the dirt n anything with wheels). The dirt is 8 miles away from my 2nd house but across the street from our other house. It will be easy to get, help my neighbor n be fun. Tony has 60 acres, but the dirt is 2 or 3 hundred feet off the road (no problemo!). Thanks for input, when tractor is in n I get it home I'll post pics of it n implements (getting plugger,auger,chipper/shredder walstein (spell duh), yard tool, box scrape ?, fel w/4 in 1 bucket and additional valve... will make upper grapple on top of 4 in 1, that should be cool if it works properly n I can keep the weight down, n a 77 by with 2 thumbs, will so how thumb works n modify other based on what I think I need it to do!!
