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 Self-Dumping Forklift Hopper is the bin a crew fills on the floor and empties without touching. The operator lifts it to the skip, pulls the release, and the shell rocks forward and tips its own load, which turns a two-person job into a one-person one and keeps a labourer off the top of a container.

The shell is quarter inch and three sixteenths steel plate rather than folded sheet, and it rides on a rocker base so the tipping motion is controlled rather than a drop. A safety lock holds the shell level in transit and has to be disengaged deliberately before anything moves, and the release works either from a rope at ground level or from a handle at the back of the hopper. Casters and lifting eyes are separate options, and adding casters lowers the rated load because the hopper then carries its own weight on wheels. This is for demolition, strip-out and site-clearance crews handling concrete, plaster, brick and construction debris day after day.

Common Applications

  • Collecting and disposing of construction debris across a site
  • Concrete, plaster and brick waste removal
  • Strip-out and demolition clearance into skips and containers
  • Moving loose material between a work face and a collection point

Selection Notes

  • The 1/2 cu yd size is rated to 4,000 lb; the other four are rated to 6,000 lb
  • Adding casters reduces the rated load to 4,000 lb less the weight of the hopper itself
  • Casters and lifting eyes are separate options, not fitted as standard
  • The hopper is not discharged while suspended from a crane
  • Confirm your carrier's rated operating capacity before ordering
