What capacities do these rotator box hoppers come in?
Two capacities are offered: 1.25 cubic yards and 2.50 cubic yards, both in the HD version. The 1.25 cu yd models are listed at $1,428.48 and the 2.50 cu yd models at $1,576.89. Capacity here is stated by volume, so match the size to how much material you move between dumps rather than to its weight.
Why does the price range start at about $400 when the hoppers cost more?
The listed range is $399.96 to $1,576.89 across 17 models, and the $399.96 figure is the optional lifting lugs (model LUG), not a complete hopper. The hoppers themselves are $1,428.48 for the 1.25 cu yd size and $1,576.89 for the 2.50 cu yd size, in any of the listed colors.
Are lifting lugs included with the hopper?
No, lifting lugs are a separate line item. They appear as model LUG, described as HOPPER OPTIONAL LIFTING LUGS, priced at $399.96, and are not part of the R-125 or R-250 hopper price. If you intend to lift the hopper rather than move it at floor level, add the LUG item to your order.
What colors are available, and do they cost more?
Eight colors are listed: black, blue, gray, orange, red, silver, white and yellow. Color does not change the price. Every 1.25 cu yd model is $1,428.48 and every 2.50 cu yd model is $1,576.89 regardless of finish. Many plants use color to separate hoppers by material type or department, so choose to suit your own coding scheme.
Where are they made and what warranty applies?
They are made in the USA by Vestil Manufacturing and carry a 1-Year Limited warranty. That applies across the listed models, both capacities and the optional lifting lugs. What the warranty covers in detail and how claims are handled is not stated in this product data, so confirm the terms before ordering if that matters to you.
What kind of operation are these suited to?
They suit operations moving bulk loose material such as scrap, chips, trimmings or general plant waste, where a container is filled at one point and emptied elsewhere. Sizing is given by volume only. This data does not list a rated load weight, overall dimensions, or compatibility with specific handling equipment, so check those against your material and your equipment before choosing a size.
