DESCRIPTION
The Star Industries Heavy Duty Forklift Trash Hopper is a rugged, high-capacity waste handling attachment designed to improve jobsite cleanliness, safety, and operational efficiency. Built from heavy-duty 3/16-inch steel, this forklift trash hopper provides a reliable solution for collecting, transporting, and disposing of construction debris, industrial waste, and warehouse rubbish.
