Which tipper fits your workday?

Steel tipper: the fleet standard for mixed-use work

A steel body is the default choice for most public-sector and facilities management fleets requiring long service life and low risk of damage. 

The re-enforced body is perfect for carrying housing repair waste, facilities management waste, trenching spoil, sludge transport, responsive maintenance equipment, bulky waste, mixed loads, appliances, debris, soil, timber and grounds waste. 

Key attributes: 

  • Strong, durable steel construction 
  • Reinforced floor options for frequent loading/unloading 
  • A variety of access options, from side doors to barn doors and bin lifts 
  • Ideal for multi-user environments 
  • Excellent stability for unpredictable terrain or variable loads 
  • Chapter 8/FORS visibility options

Praevia tipper: enhanced durability with a weight advantage

CPD's exclusive Praevia alloy body has been developed over 15 years. Painted and coated to resist corrosion, the Praevia tipper delivers on strength, durability, and maximum payload. 

Key attributes: 

  • Higher payload than Steel 
  • Significantly tougher than standard Alloy 
  • Powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance (coastal, chemical, winter-salted routes) 
  • Suited to mixed-load, multi-site operations

Aluminium tipper: for lighter daily loads and high utilisation

Ideal for: 

Soft landscaping waste, packaging, furniture, bagged materials, light maintenance work. 

Key attributes: 

  • Maximises payload 
  • Ideal for teams doing multiple runs 
  • Low unladen weight reduces wear and improves efficiency 

Note: Aluminium tippers are not suitable for sharp hardcore or abrasive loads unless reinforced plates are included in the specifications.

L3_Arb_tipper_SideTipped

Arb tipper: for bulky or low-density loads

Ideal for:  

Grounds teams, parks, estates, bulky waste, foliage, recycling surges, seasonal operations. 

Key attributes: 

  • High-volume mesh or solid sides 
  • Excellent for leaves, green waste, timber, bulky items 
  • Popular with councils managing parks and estates teams 

The right choice when volume, not density, is the challenge. The arb tipper body can also be constructed on more specialised vehicles, such as pick ups.
