Shipping & Freight

For an order containing products from a single brand, shipping is a flat rate based on your order total:

  • Orders up to $5,000: $279
  • Orders $5,000 to $10,000: $347
  • Orders $10,000 and over: $517

These rates cover standard freight delivery to a commercial address. After you place your order, our team will confirm your delivery timeline within 1 to 3 business days.

Ordering from more than one brand? Multi-brand orders ship on separate freight and are quoted individually rather than at the flat rate above. Place your order or contact us first and we will confirm total freight before anything is finalized.

Liftgate service is not included in these rates. If your delivery location has no loading dock or forklift to unload the freight from the truck, liftgate service is required and will be added to your shipping charge. If you are unsure whether you need it, contact us before ordering.

Commercial delivery locations are preferred when available. Residential delivery, limited-access locations, and appointment scheduling may affect handling.

Lead times vary by product, manufacturer availability, and selected options. Some configured, special-order, or non-stock items require additional processing time before they ship.

Please inspect all freight shipments at delivery before signing. If you see visible damage, note it with the carrier and contact us as soon as possible.

If you need freight, delivery, or lead-time guidance before ordering, contact our team before you purchase.

Compatibility / Fitment

Compatibility varies by product type, machine setup, selected options, and intended application.

For machine-mounted equipment and attachments, buyers should confirm fitment before ordering using the relevant machine information, including model, attachment style, mount type, coupler type, hydraulic requirements, and any other product-specific requirements listed on the page.

Hardscape Heavy can assist with pre-order fitment guidance based on the information you provide. This guidance is limited to purchase and compatibility review before ordering and does not include field installation, hydraulic modification, fabrication, or on-site setup support.

If you are unsure whether a product will work with your machine or application, contact us before placing the order.

Returns & Warranty

Warranty coverage is provided by the product manufacturer where applicable. Warranty terms, coverage periods, exclusions, and claim procedures vary by brand and product type.

Hardscape Heavy does not create separate warranty coverage beyond the manufacturer’s warranty unless explicitly stated on the product page.

Returns are governed by our store return policy. Because many products in this category involve freight shipping, special ordering, or configuration-specific selections, return eligibility may vary by product and condition. Special-order, custom-configured, used, damaged, or installed items may not be eligible for return.

Please review our full return policy before purchase. If you have questions about return eligibility or manufacturer warranty coverage for a specific item, contact us before ordering.

The Star Industries Extreme Duty Skid-Steer Bucket is the build for work that destroys ordinary buckets. The shell carries 25 percent more steel than the heavy duty bucket in the same range, the heel plate and the wear bars are AR400, and the cutting edge is 1 in by 8 in, which is 80 percent heavier than the edge the standard bucket runs.

Seams are welded continuously inside and outside, and a reinforced hat section runs the full width across the top with steel side blades protecting the sides. The square bottom sets close to the ground so the operator can back-drag to level, and the low profile lets the leading edge stay visible from the seat. The shell is rolled rather than folded, which is what makes it empty cleanly. This is for demolition, rock and recycled-material work where the bucket is the wearing part.

Common Applications

  • Loading rock, rubble and recycled aggregate
  • Demolition clean-up and debris handling
  • Back-dragging and levelling on prepared ground
  • High-abrasion yard and transfer-station work

Selection Notes

  • Four widths, 72 in to 96 in, at 24 in high and 34 in deep throughout
  • Buckets are built to the profile of the specific loader make and model, so state yours when ordering
  • A bolt-on blade and pin-on teeth are supplier options; the toothed XD models are held unpriced and are recorded in missing
  • Confirm your carrier's rated operating capacity before ordering
