A load-actuated dock bumper assembly for a loading dock that is displaceable along a mounting track with the vertical movement of a trailer during the loading and unloading process. The bumper assembly is comprised of a mounting bracket, a load compensating assembly housed within the mounting bracket, and a rubber bumper which is able to travel along a track on the mounting bracket. The combination of incorporating the load compensating assembly within the mounting bracket and the use of an elastically deformable strap in the load compensating assembly allows for the entire bumper assembly to maintain a low profile, thereby reducing the distance between the trailer and dock. In addition to providing a low profile, this design provides protection of the components of the bumper assembly from impact damage by trailers.
