Built on a Proven Australian Design
The Hydralift 150 is based on a long-standing Australian bin lifter design that has served councils, schools, waste contractors and industrial sites for decades.
The design has been fully updated, re-engineered and refined to further enhance operator safety and overall system reliability – bringing a proven concept up to modern standards.
Strongarm Manufacturing continues this Australian engineering legacy with a tougher, safer, and more advanced Hydralift 150. Purpose-built for today’s OHS requirements and industrial environments.
What is the Hydralift 150?
The Hydralift 150 is a heavy-duty electro-hydraulic bin lifter designed to make waste handling safer, faster and easier on any worksite.
It lifts and tips these common wheelie-bin sizes: 120, 140 and 240 litres.
The Hydralift eliminates manual-handling risks and improves efficiency across industrial and commercial environments.

Features of Strongarm Hydralift 150 Skip-Mounted Bin Lifter:
- Australian-made construction continues a long-standing Australian bin lifter design, re-
engineered for current OHS requirements and industrial environments. - Powered lifting and tipping reduces manual handling when emptying compatible wheelie
bins into a skip. - Automated bin-catch system removes the need for manual latching during operation.
- Telescopic mast design provides improved visibility around the bin lifter during use.
- Hold-to-run pendant control allows the operator to control raising and lowering from
outside the exclusion zone, with an emergency stop for added safety. - Hydraulic safety controls include a hose-burst valve, relief valve and flow control to
support controlled lifting and descent. - Skip-mounted operation secures the lifter to a compatible skip before use and is
designed for operation on flat, firm ground.
