Base Emptying Stillage – Pull Cord Release, 0.5 to 1.5m³
Price and lead time confirmed with your quote
Prices depend on your forklift and the options you need, so every attachment is quoted individually.
A base emptying stillage collects factory waste and empties it through the bottom, so there's nothing to tip. Lift it with your forklift, lower it onto the edge of the skip or container, then pull the wire cord to release the hinged base and the waste drops straight out. Lower it to the ground afterwards and the base locks itself shut.
Three sizes hold 0.5m³ to 1.5m³ and carry 1000kg to 1500kg. The 2mm steel sides and 3mm steel base are built for daily use, pallet feet let you stack them, and a safety chain links the stillage to your truck. Choose different colours to keep waste streams apart.

Before You Order
Your forks need to be at least as long as the stillage is wide (1203mm, 1696mm or 2003mm), so check your fork length first. Fork spreads are 740mm or 785mm, measured outside to outside. Then check your forklift can lift the stillage and a full load to the height you'll empty it at.
Tell us what you'll collect and roughly how much it weighs, and we'll suggest the size. Our guide on how to use a bottom emptying stillage covers sizing and emptying. Then request a quote.
