HERMEQ’s boat skip is a heavy-duty self-dumping tipping skip engineered for vertical waste handling on construction jobsites. Designed to be lifted by crane via chain or hook, this tipping skip includes an integral bail arm with locking mechanism and self-release system to automatically discharge waste without manual assistance.

Once lifted, the skip's “shark fin” system engages securely, and when positioned for emptying, the arm can be released to trigger the tipping action. The reinforced build and bright orange finish ensure performance, safety, and visibility on site. Ideal for debris removal jobs, high-rise demolition, or anywhere waste must be craned to ground level.

  • No manual tipping: Self-dumping function activates during crane lift, improving safety and efficiency.
  • Locking bail arm: Shark fin and side bolt ensure safe transit and controlled tipping operation.
  • Crane & chain compatible: Lifting eye and balanced design ensure smooth handling by tower or mobile crane.
  • Versatile sizes: Available in multiple sizes with payloads up to 6,614 lb.
  • Reinforced construction: Durable body, sides and leading edge to endure repeated loads and harsh jobsite conditions.

This tipping skip provides a reliable solution where forklifts aren’t suitable, or ground access is restricted. Common uses include skip loading on tower cranes, site waste removal from upper floors, or clearing demolition debris in confined urban environments. The absence of hydraulics or manual controls means fewer failure points and safer operation.

Standard features include a low lip height for easy loading, automatic tipping when lifted, and a rest plate for safe parking. Operators can cycle the skip quickly using the 12-step bail arm system, which resets after each discharge. The boat skip’s compact footprint makes it ideal for high-density jobsites.

HERMEQ stocks a wide range of Tipping Skips, Waste SkipsTelehandler Attachments & Handling & Lifting equipment built to meet applicable safety specifications and regulations.

HERMEQ’s boat skip is designed to reduce manual involvement and risk on busy jobsites. With a fully integrated self-dumping mechanism, it allows for efficient debris removal, demolition debris removal, or general waste disposal directly from elevated locations. The robust body resists impact and wear, while the orange finish enhances visibility for crane operators.

Each unit features a resting plate for secure parking, reinforced corners and body walls, and simple operation using the 12-step lifting and tipping procedure. No hydraulic systems or manual releases are needed, making this tipping skip one of the safest and most low-maintenance waste handling tools on the market.

Ideal for crane-serviced jobsites where forklift tipping skips aren’t feasible, the boat skip improves cycle times and reduces labor intensity. Sizes range from 0.7 to 5.2 cu yd, all rated for safe crane lifting with standard hook or chain.
