Called self-dumping hoppers, these mobile bins sit inside or outside your facility as close to the source of waste or parts as possible. When full, a forklift can quickly slide under our self-dumping hoppers to lift, move, and whisk away the debris, dumping it easily into your outdoor or indoor full-size dumpster from any height. Many of our customers also use our dump hoppers to store parts, widgets, and other manufacturing necessities.
“Taking out the trash” has never been easier than with a Creekside Manufacturing self-dumping hopper.

Our standard release system and pin-less dumping operation are built tough to withstand years of rigors, while operating smoothly, easily, and quickly - virtually maintenance free.
All of our self-dumping hoppers include safety chains standard, which wrap around the fork backs to ensure a snug fit and to keep the self-dumping hopper on the forks in case of emergency stops or shifts.
Get in and out of your forklift even less with one of two upgrades. Our hands-free "bump and dump" system has a unique bumper design that allows the forklift operator to simply bump the dumpster against the dumping point to release the safety latch. Or, select our pull-cord release system to spring the safety latch and dump the contents of your dump hopper right from the driver's seat.
Our dumping trash hoppers are made with heavy-duty steel and painted. They come in a range of paint colors standard (pick yours!), but we can also do custom paint colors to match your branding.
Add heavy duty wheels to your dump hopper for easy maneuvering around your facility. These wheels are standard on our low-profile hoppers but can be added to any other dump hopper for your needs!

After much testing and consideration over the years, our self-dumping hoppers are painted, not powder-coated.
Powder-coating can be great for metal in low-abuse settings, but we know from experience that when powder coatings chip – and they inevitably do with dump hoppers and waste management – moisture slowly seeps behind powder coating and rust will form and powder coat will peel off rapidly.
By contrast, our painted approach is more likely to dent or scratch than create large chips, reducing moisture seepage and corrosion in the long-run. We use a high-quality enamel paint on all our products; we don’t settle for anything but the best.
We build our self-dumping hoppers for durability, longevity, and integrity..
A 1-yard dumpster will hold waste equivalent to 3ft x 3ft x 3ft: a cubic yard. This is a common measurement for dumpsters and self-dumping hoppers. We make self-dumping hoppers as small as ¼-yard and as large as 7-yards standard, though we can custom manufacture hoppers of all kinds.
You clearly know self-dumping hoppers!
Creekside Manufacturing’s self-dumping hoppers are NOT pinless. Here’s why: we’ve spent considerable time and energy extensively evaluating pinless approaches, and thus far we have not been convinced that this approach is ideal for most customers. The pin in a traditional self-dumping hopper keeps the dumper on track as it pivots forward, and we’ve seen time-and-time again how the pinless approach creates multiple pinch points and ultimately failure points, creating durability issues in the long-run.
Proper self-dumping hopper manufacturing, with a traditional pin, requires attention to detail, skilled welding and planning, and experience to manufacture well. When built well, self-dumping hoppers like ours can last for decades.
Creekside Manufacturing has been manufacturing self-dumping hoppers for more than two decades, and we pride ourselves in our commitment to crafting great products that will make your workplace easier, safer, and more productive. Hand-crafted by our own family and small team, we build products to last, and we want every customer to walk away completely satisfied. If you’re not 100% satisfied, we stand behind every self-dumping hopper that leaves our floor.
We ship our self-dumping hoppers nationwide, or you can pick up your hopper yourself at our Lancaster, PA facility.
