Dymax Transfer Station and Refuse Buckets can handle larger loads than standard buckets and are designed around each application to maximize efficiency when working in refuse and landfill operations.
Some models feature a longer flat floor design for loading into trucks below the transfer station floor. The longer floor aids the operators in compacting trash more efficiently while in the truck.
It’s 3 a.m. at a Georgia transfer station, and the trucks haven’t stopped coming. A wheel loader swings a 10-yard Dymax refuse bucket into a mound of C&D, pivots, and fills a walking-floor trailer. Then the next one. It’s a relentless grind.

Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.

A refuse bucket loads high volumes of waste, trash, and recyclables — garbage and C&D debris into trailers at transfer stations, landfills, and recycling operations. Also called a trash bucket or waste handling bucket, it carries more per pass than a general-purpose bucket and stands up to abrasive material. Many operators also use it to push and stack material like a dozer between loads. |
|
A trash tamping bucket has an extra-long floor that provides extra downforce to compact waste in the trailer, so you fit more into every load. A refuse bucket is built to load and carry high volumes fast. If you’re loading trailers below the transfer station floor, the trash tamping bucket is usually the better fit. |
|
Capacity and toughness. A refuse bucket carries 35–50% more material per pass, including loose, bulky waste. It’s also built heavier, with reinforced corners for scraping against transfer station walls and replaceable wear parts throughout. |
|
Buckets range from 4 to 14 cubic yards (SAE heaped) and are built to order. Available for all major brands of wheel loaders (including Caterpillar, John Deere, Komatsu, Volvo, and Hitachi) plus toolcarriers. |
|
Yes — every one is built to order. Common options include rubber cutting edges, liners, a see-through screen moldboard to trim weight, added wear packages, and custom sizes or profiles for unusual material or barrier heights. |
