Details

This crane-liftable tipping skip is the preferred solution for construction sites requiring vertical waste removal. Designed with a drop-down bale arm and auto-emptying mechanism, it simplifies the safe lifting and discharging of materials including muck, demolition debris, and site waste—without requiring any manual handling during tipping.

The automatic tipping system means operatives never need to leave their position during discharge, improving health and safety on high-rise builds or large-scale sites. Its low loading height makes it easy to fill by hand, chute, or small machinery. Once lifted by crane or tower hook, the skip tips automatically and resets once lowered—perfect for repeat cycles.

  • Heavy-duty steel build: UK-made and reinforced to withstand harsh environments and high payloads.
  • Safe lifting mechanism: Slotted bale arms, latch release, and tipping fin provide balanced lifting and controlled discharge.
  • High capacity range: From 500L up to 4000L with safe working loads (SWL) from 1000kg to 5000kg.
  • Zero manual intervention: Fully automatic tipping reduces injury risks and boosts speed.
  • Compact footprint: Ideal for crane-serviced demolition sites, rooftops, or excavation levels.

This boat skip suits heavy waste and construction debris, especially where forklifts are not available or not safe to use. Its slotted lifting points and drop-down bale arm allow the skip to be hoisted using standard chains or hooks, with no need for external attachments.

As with HERMEQ’s full tipping skip range, this skip is painted in high-vis orange for safety and constructed with reinforced sides and edges for longevity. Designed to tip partial or full loads depending on lifting height and operator need, it provides more flexibility than traditional manual boat skips.

HERMEQ stocks a wide range of Crane Lifting Equipment, Tipping Skips, Waste Skips, Telehandler Attachments & Handling & Lifting equipment conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

HERMEQ’s crane-lifted boat skips are fabricated to support safe, high-volume waste handling on complex or vertical-access jobs. Every unit is manufactured in the UK to exacting standards, featuring reinforced steel bodies and a high-visibility finish for safe crane coordination.

Built with slotted lifting arms and a drop-down bale design, these skips allow for easy hookup and secure handling by mobile cranes or tower cranes. The latch and tipping system requires no manual reset between cycles, enhancing site efficiency. Their low-loading lip improves accessibility, while reinforced sides extend usable life in tough construction settings.

The range offers many sizes to accommodate everything from general waste to dense materials such as concrete or earth. Their compact footprint and auto-reset make them ideal for fast-paced workflows, reducing crane downtime and site congestion. Forklift versions are also available in HERMEQ’s tipping skip range for ground-access tasks.
