Steve Atkinson, senior quantity surveyor at Harry Fairclough Construction, explained: “From the outset, the team was really helpful in providing us with advice and guidance about the type of skip our client would need, as well as its specifications and features. We wouldn’t hesitate using them again should Harry Fairclough Construction, or any of our clients, require a forklift attachment to assist in business operations.” 

The 1.2m³ capacity model is Contact Attachments’ most popular Tipping Skip, with larger and smaller models available depending on usage requirements and customer demand. Width release handles fitted as standard eliminate the need for users to lean in between the skip and the forklift truck, and twin locking mechanisms ensure safe locking when loaded evenly.  

Dave Manuel, sales and technical director at Contact Attachments, said: “Our forklift tipping skips and bins are the perfect choice for any business which needs to load materials or waste, and store them safely until they are removed from the site. They come with a Certificate of Conformity to meet the latest health and safety regulations, and have various features to ensure optimum user safety, including chains which fasten the attachment to the forklift for added security.”

Pre-drilled plates also allow users to fit castors easily as they need, without the inconvenience of onsite welding and downtime. The Tipping Skips have the durability to handle varying types of loads, with the steel frames manufactured at Contact Attachments’ site with the high quality steel.
