Forklift self dumping hoppers are a type of forklift dumpster attachment. They are basically big hoppers that are filled with various types of trash, tear off, roofing, garbage and other debris. Forklift pockets and safety chains allow hopper to lock to the forks of a fork truck in order for the worker to lift, carry, and then dump the hopper’s load into a trash dumpster or similar container for collecting refuse.

There are many different types of forklift self-dumping hoppers. Avnix self dump hoppers feature large variety of load capacity, dumping mechanisms, and sizes. All dumping hoppers are made from heavy gauge steel, the strength of which varies among different models. Some of the most heavy duty forklift hoppers can move up to 3 tons of debris in a single load.

A dumpster forklift attachment is simple and secure to use. The fork truck hopper is first placed flat on the floor so that a fork truck worker can drive the forks into the pockets and secure them to the hopper. Employees then load the hopper to maximum capability with debris, trash or refuge, and the worker lifts the hopper above eye level in order to have ample visibility to drive the fork truck. A safety lock makes sure the forklift attachment does not dump its load too early as it bumps over bumpy ground. Once it is located above the dumpster, the forklift operator can either discharge the contents with a rope or a latch release lever located on the side of the hopper.

Avnix sells forklift dumpsters to all types of commercial businesses.
