📘 Overview
A Star Industries forklift trash hopper is placed where the work is and filled as the job progresses. The open face design is the point: crews wheel barrows and buggies straight in at floor level rather than lifting waste over a lip, which is what makes it usable on an upper floor, an elevated deck or a roof. When it is full the forklift picks it up and carries it to the disposal area. Two sizes are offered — the 1425 at 3.7 cu yd and the 1430 at 5.0 cu yd — both rated 5,000 lb with reinforced 3/16 inch plate steel sides and full length fork channels.
⚙ Key Features of the Star Industries Heavy Duty Trash Hopper

- Open face design gives unrestricted front side access — wheel barrows and buggies straight in

🔑 Why Buyers Choose the Star Industries Heavy Duty Trash Hopper
- Waste goes in at floor level, not over a lip — the open face means a loaded barrow rolls straight in. On an upper floor or a roof deck, that is the difference between a hopper crews actually use and one they pile beside.
- It goes where the work is — the forklift places the hopper on the floor, deck or roof being worked on, and only returns when it is full. Waste stops being carried down and across the site by hand.
- Full length fork channels do two jobs — they add strength across the bottom where a loaded hopper flexes, and they locate the forks at the correct pickup points so the load is balanced when lifted.
- 3/16 inch plate with reinforced edges and corners — the corners are where a trash hopper fails, because that is where dropped material concentrates. Reinforcing them is why this survives brick and concrete offcuts.
- The 1430 carries a third more than the 1425 — 5.0 cu yd against 3.7, at the same 5,000 lb rating, so the larger hopper suits bulky light waste like packaging and insulation where the 1425 fills before it loads.

🔗 What Ships With the Trash Hopper
Both hoppers arrive ready to place: reinforced 3/16 inch plate steel body, full length fork channels, and a 3 foot chain with locking grab hook to secure the hopper to the carriage as a secondary safety measure. The 1430 additionally includes end caps to strengthen the front edge and horizontal reinforcement for its extra wide capacity. Optional fork pins for the 1425 and 1430 are available separately for machines that need them, and a 5/16 inch safety chain assembly is stocked as a part.
🚜 Which Forklifts Fit This Forklift Trash Hopper?
The hopper is a universal fit for any forklift with a slip-on-forks design, including extendable-reach machines, which are what put a hopper onto an elevated deck or roof. Fork pockets accept forks up to 2.5 inches thick by 7 inches wide by 60 inches long, spaced 39 inches centre to centre, so check your fork dimensions against those figures. The 3 foot chain and locking grab hook should be fitted around the carriage before lifting. Both sizes are rated 5,000 lb, and your machine capacity at the height and reach you are placing at is the governing limit.

❓ Star Industries Heavy Duty Trash Hopper Questions, Answered
What does open face mean on a trash hopper?
The front side is open at floor level rather than enclosed, so waste is wheeled directly in with barrows and buggies instead of being lifted over a lip. That is what makes the hopper practical on an upper floor, an elevated deck or a roof.
Which trash hopper size should I choose?
The 1425 holds 3.7 cu yd in a 5 ft W x 4 ft H x 5 ft D body; the 1430 holds 5.0 cu yd in a 7 ft W x 4 ft H x 5 ft D body. Both are rated 5,000 lb, so choose on volume: the 1430 suits bulky light waste like packaging and insulation, where the 1425 would fill before reaching its weight limit.
How is the hopper secured to the forklift?
It slides onto the forks through full length fork channels, and a 3 foot chain with locking grab hook wraps the carriage as a secondary safety measure. Fitting the chain before lifting is what stops the hopper sliding forward off the forks.
Will the hopper fit my forks?
Fork pockets accept forks up to 2.5 inches thick by 7 inches wide by 60 inches long, at 39 inches centre to centre. Measure your fork dimensions and carriage spacing against those figures before ordering.
Can the hopper be placed on an upper floor or roof?
Yes, and that is a large part of what it is for. An extendable-reach forklift places the hopper on the floor, deck or roof being worked on, crews fill it there, and the machine returns to collect it when full.
What is the hopper made from?
Durable 3/16 inch plate steel sides with reinforced edges and corners, and full length fork channels adding strength to the bottom. The 1430 also carries horizontal reinforcement and end caps on the front edge.
What is the difference between this and a self dumping hopper?
A trash hopper is open faced and is carried to the disposal area to be emptied. A self dumping hopper is enclosed and tips its load with a rope release without being set down. Choose the trash hopper for loading at floor level and the self dump hopper for repeat collection and discharge cycles.
Are fork pins available?
Yes, optional fork pins for the 1425 and 1430 are available separately, along with a 5/16 inch safety chain assembly, for machines that require them.
What warranty comes with the trash hopper?
The Star Industries trash hoppers carry a 5-year factory guarantee and are made in the USA.
