Tipping Skips: Streamline Waste Handling and Material Management

Looking for robust, reliable tipping skips to improve your site’s waste management and material handling? At Action Handling, we offer a comprehensive range of tipping skips designed for seamless integration with forklifts, stackers and telehandlers—making the collection, transport, and disposal of waste or bulk materials safer, faster, and more efficient.

Why Choose Tipping Skips?

Tipping skips are essential for businesses in construction, manufacturing, warehousing, and recycling. These versatile forklift attachments allow single-operator collection and controlled tipping of waste, scrap, or bulk materials—reducing manual handling, increasing site safety, and keeping workspaces organised. With options for automatic or manual tipping, colour-coded models for waste segregation, and a variety of capacities, there’s a tipping skip to suit every application.

Types of Tipping Skips Available

  • Standard Tipping Skips: Ideal for general factory waste, offcuts, and debris. Durable steel construction ensures long service life, even in demanding environments.
  • Heavy Duty Industrial Tipping Skips: Built for frequent use and heavy loads, featuring reinforced steel bodies and robust underframes for maximum durability.
  • Economy/ECO Tipping Skips: Lightweight and cost-effective, perfect for lighter waste streams and easy manoeuvrability.
  • Self-Tipping & Auto Lock Skips: Designed for single-person operation, these skips feature self-tipping mechanisms and auto-locking for safe, efficient waste disposal—compatible with forklifts, stackers and telehandlers.
  • Low Height & Compact Skips: Specially designed for tight spaces or production areas with limited clearance, offering easy loading and safe, low-centre-of-gravity operation.
  • Jumbo & High-Capacity Skips: Extra-large skips for bulky or high-volume waste, with optional hydraulic controls for safer, more controlled tipping.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Durable Construction: Most models are built from 2, 3 or 5mm thick steel and feature heavy-duty underframes for longevity.
  • Safety First: Equipped with safety chains, twin locking mechanisms, and full-width release handles to ensure secure operation and prevent accidental tipping.
  • Easy Forklift Integration: Standard fork pockets and side-entry designs make skips easy to attach, move, and tip using standard forklifts.
  • Customisation: Choose from a range of colours for waste segregation, optional lids, castor wheels for mobility, and branding options.
  • Compliance: All skips are CE marked and supplied with certificates of conformity to meet UK health and safety regulations.

Typical Applications

  • Construction and demolition sites
  • Warehouses and logistics hubs
  • Manufacturing and production facilities
  • Recycling and waste management centres
  • Machine shops (swarf and metal shavings collection)4

How to Select the Right Tipping Skip

Consider your waste type, required capacity, available space, and handling equipment. For heavy or frequent use, opt for heavy-duty models; for lighter or occasional waste, economy skips may be sufficient. Compact skips are ideal for tight spaces, while jumbo models suit high-volume operations.
