Star Industries Forklift Self-Dump Buckets

The Star Industries Forklift Self-Dump Bucket turns any forklift into a safe, efficient material-loading system

Built with heavy-gauge welded steel and reinforced stress points, these buckets are designed for job sites that require quick loading and precise dumping without manual handling of materials.

The manual self-dump models feature a simple latch system that allows the operator to release and reset the bucket directly from the driver’s seat — no additional hydraulics required. For even greater productivity, the hydraulic self-dump versions use a built-in hydraulic cylinder for smooth, controlled operation from the cab, making them ideal for continuous-duty applications.

Whether you’re working with gravel, dirt, concrete debris, or bulk materials, Star’s self-dump buckets deliver unmatched safety, reliability, and time savings. Available in multiple widths and capacities, they’re perfect for construction sites, yards, and material-handling facilities that demand both versatility and performance.

Which Model Should You Choose?

• Manual Dump (1440SD – 1484SD): Ideal for general use when simplicity and reliability are key.

• Hydraulic Dump (1445SDH – 1484SDH): Best for frequent or heavy-duty applications requiring precise material control.

• Smaller Widths (45″): Easier handling and tighter turning radius.

• Larger Widths (72″–84″): Greater volume and efficiency for bulk materials.
