Skip Loaders Truck Bodies

A skip loader truck rarely sits still. From the first pickup in the morning to the last delivery of the day, it’s constantly travelling between customer sites, collecting full bins, dropping off empty ones, and heading to the next job.

Whether you’re servicing a construction site, an industrial facility, or a commercial property, every stop needs to be completed quickly and safely. Delays add up, especially when you’ve got multiple collections scheduled throughout the day.

Using hydraulic lifting arms, the truck engages the skip bin, lifts it onto the body, secures it for transport, and places it back on site when required. It’s a straightforward system that’s become the preferred choice for operators who need to move large waste containers efficiently.

When the truck body is built well, operators spend less time dealing with equipment and more time keeping their collection schedule on track.

Designed Around Your Fleet

Some operators manage local skip hire for builders and trades, while others cover large industrial sites or service customers across multiple regions. Different vehicles, collection routes, and workloads all influence the right truck body specification.

Every Astech skip loader truck body is manufactured around your operation rather than a standard template.

Available customisation options include:

• Chassis compatibility
• Body dimensions
• Hydraulic lifting systems
• Lifting arm configuration
• Payload capacity
• Safety equipment
• Material selection
• Fleet colours and branding

Whether you’re replacing one vehicle or growing your fleet, we’ll help build equipment that fits naturally into the way you already work.

Ready for Everyday Work

Construction sites, industrial yards, demolition projects, and commercial cleanouts all place different demands on waste collection equipment. Some days involve repeated short trips between nearby sites, while others mean travelling long distances carrying heavy loads.

Over time, those lifting cycles, road conditions, and daily workloads put every truck body to the test.

That’s why we manufacture our skip loader truck bodies from heavy-duty steel with reinforced construction where it matters most. Every component is selected to cope with regular lifting, transport, and unloading while helping reduce wear over years of service.

For fleet owners, reliable equipment means fewer unexpected repairs, less downtime, and greater confidence that trucks will be ready to head back out the next morning.

Supporting More Than Your Truck

A truck body is only one part of an efficient waste handling operation. Many businesses rely on a combination of bins, lifting equipment, and handling products to keep waste moving safely from customer sites through to disposal or recycling.

Alongside our skip loader truck bodies, Astech manufactures a complete range of waste handling equipment, including:

• front lift bins
• bin castors
• waste compactors
• food waste containers
• 4 wheel plastic bins 
• 2 wheel plastic bins
• tippler bins 
• hooklift bins
• skip bins
• forklift attachment

Working with one supplier can simplify purchasing, servicing, and future fleet expansion while giving you confidence that your equipment has been designed to work together.

Where Skip Loader Truck Bodies Are Used

Skip loader truck bodies are commonly used wherever skip bins need to be delivered, exchanged, and collected throughout the day.

Construction companies rely on them to remove building waste as projects progress, while industrial contractors use them to service factories, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities where waste volumes can quickly build up.

They’re also widely used for demolition work, where heavy materials need to be removed efficiently, and commercial cleanout projects that require frequent skip bin exchanges over a short period.

If your business regularly transports skip bins between customer sites and disposal facilities, a skip loader truck body offers a practical and dependable solution.
