Tipping Skips

Our range of tipping skips is very comprehensive now with all kinds of tipping skips for just about every application. We stock tipping skips for next day delivery and can produce heavy duty skips with 5mm thick skip walls on a 2 week lead time. We have galvanized tipping skips and polyethylene tipping bins which are suitable for food and hygienic applications. Heavy duty tipping skips can be fitted with wheels or alternatively there are tilting bins with pallet skids for forklift tipping into a skip.

VULCAN Tipping Skip Range for Forklifts

This is our range of VULCAN Tipping Skips. The tipping skips are for forklift or telehandler use and feature a spring plate for automatic tipping to unload. Our basic range of tipping skips are heavy duty with an impressive load capcity of 2000kg.

Tipping skips are great for collecting and moving waste, whether cardboard and general waste, rubble and construction site debris or something more specific to suit your own application. The skip can be placed locally to the area to be cleared and left there until full. Once the tipping skip is full and needs emptying, the skip bin can be moved by forklift to the skip or truck into which the bin will be emptied. Simply raise the tipping bin over the skip and push the release catch against the top edge of the bin and the skip will roll forward and tip the contents out below. The forklift driver doesn't even have to get out of his seat. To close, lower the edge of the tipping skip down onto the bin below and the catch will automatically re-engage as the skip rotates back to the home position. Please see our video below on how to use this tipping skip.

CENTURION Tipping Skips

Low Height Skip Range Low Height Skip Range in use

Our range of CENTURION tipping skips can be used to collect and dispose of waste and scrap in the workplace. The tipping skips are all on wheels so are easy to move around. When the tipping skip needs emptying, it can be raised up by forklift, positioned over the appropriate bin/skip, the lever can be operated by the forklift driver with string reaching the cab door . The skip is fully water tight and be drained via a drainage tap on the bottom.

For extra safety the skip also has a fixing chain that will attatch to the forks of the forklift, this means the skip won't fall off during the tipping process, the larger skips especially fall with some force (hydraulic dampers are recommended here).

Hydraulic Damper 

Hydraulic Cylinder
Hydraulic Damper Option

Hydraulic Dampers for gradually tipping the dumping container is available on request. This is recommended for the larger tipping skips and does not result in an increase in size as they are installed within the frame of the dumper.

The hydraulic cylinder also acts as a noise reducer during tipping and has a buit in compensator that regulates itself based on the capacity required.

Our dumping containers can also be supplied with a galvanised finish to prevent rusting. We can also provide lids for the tipping skips. We supply a centrally split hinged sheet metal cover for this range of skips. Contact us for more details.
