Rigid Tipper Hire

Efficiently transporting large volumes of aggregates and soils

Our Rigid Tipper Hire is ideal for delivering large volumes of materials efficiently and with ease. From construction projects to landscaping, agriculture to waste, we can assist.

Our Vehicles

Our rigid tippers are ideal for delivering large volumes of materials as well as providing muckaway services. They are available for long-term hire or single job contracts to suit customer needs.

Rigid tippers are known for their robustness and high capacity, making them essential to many industries. Designed to handle heavy loads, our tippers are equipped with eight wheels to distribute the weight evenly, enhancing stability and reducing pressure on road surfaces.

Tippers offer significant hauling capabilities and are able to operate efficiently on various terrains, including challenging off-road conditions. The rigid chassis construction contributes to the vehicle’s durability and ability to withstand the rigorous demands of frequent loading and unloading cycles.

They also have a hydraulic tipping mechanism that enables the dump body to lift and tip the load to the rear, facilitating easy and quick unloading. Safety features, such as automatic tailgate locks and tipper stability assist, ensure that operations are conducted safely, protecting both the operator and the site personnel.

Material Handling Capabilities

Our tippers are used for delivering and collecting a range of materials including:

Inert material

Often referred to as muckaway, this is material that has been generated on a construction project through excavation of earth to facilitate the placement of foundations. Inert material is transported to a facility for onward disposal.

Aggregates

The large volume capacity of 8-wheel tippers allows for substantial deliveries of aggregates such as crushed stone, gravel and sand, optimising construction timelines.

Concrete and rubble

After demolition or construction, large amounts of concrete waste and rubble need to be cleared. Our tippers are ideal for handling these heavy and bulky materials, aiding in site clearance and recycling processes.

Soil / Topsoil

Essential for landscaping and agricultural projects, the transport of soil and topsoil must be handled delicately to preserve the quality. Our tippers ensure that these materials are transported efficiently without contamination.

Differing limestone grade materials

Used in building, agriculture and chemical industries, limestone must be transported in different grades. Our 8-wheel tippers can accommodate the specific densities and quantities required for varied applications.

Hazardous and non-hazardous waste

Managing waste, particularly hazardous types, requires adherence to strict environmental and safety standards. Our rigid tippers are equipped with features that ensure safe transportation of such materials, preventing leakage and contamination during transit.

Commercial and Domestic

Our rigid tippers are versatile and often employed in both commercial and domestic settings, handling a variety of tasks. In commercial projects, they are essential for transporting large quantities of construction materials such as gravel, sand and demolition waste, supporting infrastructure development and maintenance.

For domestic purposes, our tippers are often used to assist in home landscaping projects, delivering bulk materials like topsoil or decorative stone directly to residential areas. Their robust design allows them to navigate different terrains, making them ideal for both the heavy-duty demands of commercial construction sites and the more tailored needs of private home improvement projects.

Muckaway

When providing muckaway services via our fleet of rigid tippers, we work with trusted partners to utilise local materials recovery facilities. This ensures that all waste is handled and treated correctly, and directed down the most appropriate route for its type for onward recycling or end disposal.

Prioritising Safety

Our 8-wheel rigid tippers are equipped with a range of safety features to ensure the safety of the driver, the vehicle, and the public.

  • Reversing cameras and sensors help drivers navigate the large blind spots at the rear of the vehicle, and provide visual and audible alerts to prevent collisions with objects, vehicles and pedestrians.
  • Side mirrors and blind spot mirrors are critical for enhancing visibility around the vehicle.
  • Automatic braking systems help prevent or reduce the severity of a collision by automatically applying the brakes if the vehicle gets too close to an object or another vehicle.
  • Stability control systems prevent overturning by adjusting engine power and applying braking to specific wheels if they detect that the vehicle is losing stability.
  • Warning beacons and lighting ensures the tipper is seen, especially when operating in poorly lit areas or during adverse weather conditions.
  • Roll-over protection in the form of structural reinforcements help protect the cabin and the driver if a roll-over accident occurs.
