The Hefty Hopper Extreme

Brace yourself: the Hefty Hopper Extreme is here to make its mark, and yes, it’s everything the name promises and then some. 

Picture the same trusted, rock-solid design of the original Hefty Hopper, now bulked up with a tougher box, beefier frame, and a sheer determination to handle whatever you throw its way—literally. Built for the kind of jobs that laugh in the face of a challenge, this dumpster beast doesn’t just haul—it conquers. Whether you’re working with heavier materials, larger loads, or the kind of messes that demand a serious clean-up tool, the Hefty Hopper Extreme proves it’s in a class of its own.

Available in 1/2-yard through 8-yard capacities.

Hefty Hopper Extreme Standard Features

  • Effortless self-dumping action triggered by reliable rear-mounted latch for safer and simpler operation.
  • Tried-and-true pin-reliant design means no risk of shifting during movement, and built-in hopper stops mean a safer waste-dumping process.

  • Standard on every hopper, safety chain wraps around your forklift’s uprights quickly to keep everything in place during travel AND while dumping.

Hefty Hopper Extreme FAQs

We generally keep The Hefty Hopper in some of our most popular sizes, including 2-yard and 3-yard, in stock at all times. Give us a call to find out more!

After years of testing and thoughtful evaluation, we’ve made the choice to paint The Hefty Hopper instead of powder-coating it.

While powder coating works well in low-impact environments, it’s a different story for heavy-duty equipment like dump hoppers. When powder coatings chip—and trust us, they will under tough conditions—moisture sneaks beneath the surface. This leads to rust forming and causes the coating to peel away far too quickly.

Paint, on the other hand, offers a more reliable defense. It’s less prone to chipping in large sections and more likely to develop minor scratches or dents, which significantly reduces the risk of moisture creeping in and causing long-term corrosion. For every hopper we make, we use premium enamel paint because only the best will do.

At the end of the day, we’re committed to building self-dumping hoppers that stand the test of time—durable, reliable, and ready for whatever your business throws at them.

A 1-yard dumpster is designed to hold a cubic yard of waste—essentially a 3ft x 3ft x 3ft block of material. This standard measurement is widely used for both dumpsters and self-dumping hoppers.

The Hefty Hopper is available in 1/2 yard all the way to 8-yard models.

Wow, you know a lot about 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.

As of 2024 and for the foreseeable future, we sell our Hefty Hoppers direct to our customers. Give us a call for pricing!
