Built with operator convenience and job site safety in mind, the forklift tipping skip provides a reliable solution for bulk material movement. Featuring a 4-way fork entry system, the skip allows for efficient handling in tight site layouts and urban environments. Once engaged, the zinc-plated twist screws ensure a stable fit to your truck, minimising movement during transit and tipping.
The bucket’s toothed edge can be removed for maintenance or replaced to extend product lifespan. This allows for precise material penetration when working with dense or compacted materials. The enclosed operating mechanism protects critical parts from debris and impact, reducing wear and maintenance frequency.
Depending on your material type and site conditions, the 400kg or 600kg model will determine your scoop's efficiency. Use the 400kg version for light landscaping or topsoil movement and switch to the 600kg model for aggregates, gravel, or on-site waste. The optional self-closing action helps operators maintain a smooth workflow without unnecessary dismounting, enabling safer and quicker tipping operations.

Application in context
The tipping skip acts as a smart alternative to a full loading shovel. It enables construction teams to repurpose their forklift into a loader for backfilling, trench clearing, or transporting material between stockpiles. Landscapers benefit from its compact dimensions for precise placement of soil or chippings. In warehousing and industrial settings, this attachment improves efficiency for loading into Big Bulk Bag Hoppers or vehicles, while maintaining tight control of the material discharge process.
The painted orange finish ensures visibility even in busy yards or low-light environments, reducing accident risk. This is especially valuable for sectors like waste management and local authority maintenance, where varied teams operate across one site. Together, these features make this forklift skip an indispensable asset for industries requiring safe, fast, and flexible material movement options.
Can this forklift tipping skip be used with any forklift?
Yes, as long as your truck accommodates forks up to 150 x 50mm at 675mm centres. Always check compatibility before use.
What types of materials can I move?
Common applications include sand, gravel, topsoil, compost, and similar loose materials. It’s not suitable for liquids or highly compacted waste.
Is it easy to operate?
Yes. Simply drive the forks into the pockets, tighten the screws, and tilt to fill. The self-closing mechanism makes tipping simple and efficient.
How does this compare to standard tipping skips?
This scoop gives better control when loading due to its enclosed mechanism and toothed edge, making it more precise than traditional tipping skips in confined spaces.
