Forklift Tipper Bin
Material Handling for Cranes & Forklifts
When optimising your worksite for efficiency and safety, the Forklift Tipper Bin stands out.
Designed to be handled by both forklifts and cranes, this multi-functional bin is essential for modern industrial, construction, and waste?handling environments.
What Is a Forklift Tipper Bin?
A Forklift Tipper Bin is a specialised container engineered to be lifted, transported, and emptied using either a forklift or an overhead crane.
These bins streamline bulk material handling and reduce the manual labour required, thereby increasing productivity and safety.
Tipping Mechanism
Self?Dumping (Auto?dumping) Bins: These bins tip via a built?in hinge, activated from the forklift operator’s seat or by pushing the front feet of the bin against the top lip of the bin you are tipping into, which will activate the release mechanisms.
Forklift?Crane Hybrid Bins: Built for flexibility, these come with forklift pockets, crane lifting lugs, and a safety chain to secure it to the forklift.
Why Use a Forklift Tipper Bin?
Enhanced Safety: Eliminates manual tipping, reducing injury risks.
Increased Efficiency: Enables rapid emptying using a forklift, ideal for high?volume operations.
Versatility: Compatible with forklifts and cranes, and adaptable across different bin designs and bin contents—from general waste to industrial scrap.
Real-World Applications
Industrial & Construction: Heavy-duty bins with high load capacities and durable construction are ideal for dense waste, rubble, or bulk materials.
Agriculture & Food Processing: Rotating bin tippers are used worldwide to safely empty fresh produce containers.
Warehousing & Recycling: Bin tipping attachments streamline daily waste collection and recyclables management.
Australian Market: Providers offer crane?capable tipping bins with compliance plates and are engineered to Australian safety standards.

The Right Forklift Tipper Bin
Capacity & Size: Available in 1.0, 1.5 & 2.0cu.m capacities.
Emptying Mechanism: Choose between self?dumping or using the crane lugs to empty the crane bin based on handling preference and operational flow.
Compatibility & Safety: Ensure forklift tine dimensions align, and safety features like chains or locks are in place.
Finish: Choose a durable finish to suit your environment. Galvanised steel or a painted finish, for longevity and corrosion resistance. Standard finish is painted grey, but other colours are available on request.
