Wheelie Bin Tippers & Electric Bin Lifters
Richmond supplies wheelie bin tippers and electric bin lifters designed to make lifting and emptying heavy wheelie bins safer, faster and easier. Suitable for warehouses, manufacturing plants, workshops, food processing facilities and commercial workplaces, these powered bin tipping machines reduce the manual handling involved in transferring waste into skips, hoppers and larger collection containers.
Our WBT1600 Electric Wheelie Bin Tipper provides a practical solution for handling standard 80L, 120L, 140L and 240L wheelie bins weighing up to 150kg. With a 1600mm tipping height and electric hydraulic lifting system, it allows operators to empty loaded bins without manually lifting or overturning them.
Powered by rechargeable batteries, the WBT1600 offers cordless operation and can be repositioned around the workplace on its 125mm non-marking rubber wheels. Its powder coated steel frame and galvanised steel bin caddy are designed for regular commercial and industrial use.
Electric Wheelie Bin Tippers for Industrial Waste Handling
Electric wheelie bin tippers are ideal for workplaces where waste bins need to be emptied regularly into elevated containers. The WBT1600 uses a powered lifting and tipping mechanism to raise compatible bins to a height of 1600mm, helping reduce physical strain and improve waste handling efficiency.
Designed for efficient operation, the WBT1600 takes approximately 7 seconds to tip a bin, with a complete tipping cycle of approximately 13 seconds. Its bin caddy accommodates standard 80L, 120L, 140L and 240L wheelie bins without adjustment, making it suitable for workplaces using multiple bin sizes.
The rechargeable battery system uses two 12V 58Ah gel lead-acid batteries and provides an average operating runtime of 3–6 hours, depending on load, frequency of use and operating conditions. Built-in safety features include an emergency stop, overload protection, upper and lower limit switches, anti-slip braking and protective guarding.
Product Types by Application
Electric Wheelie Bin Tippers
Electric wheelie bin tippers use powered lifting equipment to raise and empty loaded wheelie bins into larger waste containers. Richmond’s WBT1600 offers a 150kg lifting capacity and 1600mm tipping height for compatible bins.
These machines are suited to warehouses, factories, distribution centres and commercial facilities where regular bin emptying is required. Powered operation helps reduce repetitive lifting and improves the consistency of waste handling tasks.
Battery-Powered Bin Lifters
Battery-powered bin lifters provide cordless operation without requiring a continuous connection to mains power during use. The WBT1600 uses rechargeable gel lead-acid batteries, with an average operating runtime of 3–6 hours.
Battery operation is useful in workplaces where waste handling equipment needs to be repositioned between collection points. The WBT1600’s non-marking rubber wheels assist with movement around suitable workplace surfaces.
Industrial Wheelie Bin Lifters
Industrial wheelie bin lifters provide a mechanical solution for transferring heavy waste bins into elevated skips and hoppers. The WBT1600 combines a powder coated steel frame with a galvanised steel bin caddy for regular commercial and industrial use.
These machines are suitable for manufacturing plants, engineering workshops, warehouses and processing facilities where loaded bins must be emptied frequently.
Specialty Product Options
150kg Lifting Capacity
The WBT1600 Electric Wheelie Bin Tipper is designed to lift compatible wheelie bins weighing up to 150kg, including the bin and its contents.
This capacity makes it suitable for a range of commercial and industrial waste handling applications. Operators should ensure loaded bins remain within the machine’s rated capacity.
1600mm Tipping Height
With a 1600mm tipping height, the WBT1600 is designed to empty wheelie bins into larger waste containers, skips and suitable processing equipment.
Before selecting a bin tipper, check the height and opening dimensions of the receiving container to ensure sufficient clearance for the lifting and tipping operation.
Multiple Wheelie Bin Sizes
The WBT1600 accommodates standard 80L, 120L, 140L and 240L wheelie bins. Its bin caddy is designed around standard wheelie bin widths, allowing compatible bin sizes to be loaded without adjustment.
This makes the machine practical for workplaces using different bin capacities across production, storage and waste collection areas.
Fast Electric Tipping Cycle
The WBT1600 takes approximately 7 seconds to tip a bin, with a complete tipping cycle of approximately 13 seconds.
Fast powered operation helps reduce the time spent emptying bins, particularly in facilities where waste disposal is a frequent task.
Rechargeable Battery Operation
Powered by two 12V 58Ah gel lead-acid batteries, the WBT1600 provides cordless operation with an average battery runtime of 3–6 hours.
Runtime depends on the load being lifted, frequency of use and operating conditions. Rechargeable battery power provides flexibility for waste handling tasks around the workplace.
Steel Frame & Galvanised Bin Caddy
The WBT1600 features a powder coated steel frame and galvanised steel bin caddy designed for regular commercial and industrial use.
The bin caddy provides support for compatible wheelie bins throughout the lifting and tipping cycle, while the steel frame forms the machine’s main supporting structure.
Non-Marking Rubber Wheels
Fitted with 125mm non-marking rubber wheels, the WBT1600 can be repositioned around suitable workplace surfaces while helping protect finished floors.
This is useful in warehouses, commercial facilities and processing areas where equipment may need to move between waste collection points.
Integrated Safety Features
The WBT1600 includes an emergency stop, overload protection, upper and lower limit switches, anti-slip braking and protective guarding.
These features support controlled operation during lifting and tipping. Operators should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and maintain appropriate clearance around the machine during use.
