Tippers
Heavy and Light Duty Tippers
A.H Peters has developed a range of bodies that can be customised to meet all possible requirements. Our Tipping bodies can be individually designed to provide the maximum vehicle allowed payload, top and side pivot tailgates and have fixed or drop sides. Our bodies have the strength of welded steel construction, underbody hoists for maximum cubic capacity and full height loading boards with rear view aperture for driver safety.
Chipper Tippers
Typically high-sided tippers with rear barn doors and removable solid canopies, A.H Peters has built chipper tippers with chassis-mounted crane and removable tarpaulin cover to allow large tree trunks to be loaded into the tipper.
We also make customised large underbody vented toolboxes for chainsaws or leaf blowers that these trucks usually carry.
Three Way Tippers
Typically used for rail line maintenance, landscaping supply deliveries in areas with limited access and dumping in congested areas, these trucks tip to either side as well as the rear of the vehicle.
Standard fittings include manual opening bottom pivoting sides with chains, a top pivoting tailgate and single point control of the body tip mode.
Optional Features
- Side and top pivot tailgates to allow loading of machinery, branches or long objects
- Fixed easy-clean sides for trucks carrying sand, gravel or soil
- Drop sides to provide low loading heights or to allow loading by forklift (removable centre posts can also be added)

- Mounting the spare wheels on winched cradles in front of the tipping body to keep them out of the way for side tipping
