What is the difference between tipping skips? That Ultimate Lifting Solutions Ltd Supply?

The main difference between tipping skips is the material they are manufactured from. Our Standard Forklift Tipping Skips are manufactured in the UK from a 3mm Quality steel plate, the Heavy Duty Tipping Skips are manufactured in the UK from a thicker plate of 5mm. The advantage of the standard DTS tipping skip is the overall weight is less, making it easier to manoeuvre around the factory and site and will be better suitable for smaller forklifts. The HDI Heavy Duty Industrial Tipping Skip manufactured from a heavier gauge steel plate makes the units more durable and suited to construction sites that will have bigger waste products added to them.

What are the design differences between the standard skip and the heavy-duty tipping skip?

The DTS Forklift Tipping skip is manufactured with a folded back lip all around the bucket area, this double folded lip adds extra strength to the whole skip area, which helps the skip to keep its shape longer and again makes them suitable for building sites, construction sites and factories that are using the tipping skips for waste products such as steel, rubble, bricks, roof slates and other site materials such as installation materials, wood and plasterboard. The HDI Heavy Duty Industrial Tipping Skip has a thicker body material and is manufactured with a more simple folded edge, this is all this model requires to give the heavy-duty tipping skip its strength and durability to withstand the onsite conditions it has been designed for.
