A truck hopper gate opener and method of its use are described. The opener includes a static base mounted to a floor or an industrial cart. Pivotally engaged to the base is a frame which includes an articulate arm to provide horizontal motion and a slide/track assembly to provide vertical motion to a rotary motor pivotally engaged thereto. The rotary motor includes a gate opener interface in the form of a clamp or socket configured to couple with a gate opening mechanism of a truck hopper gate, whereby when appropriately positioned and engaged the rotary motor is activated and turns the gate opening mechanism and opens the truck hopper gate.
