Bucket Broom for skid steer hire

Bucket Broom

A rotating broom sweeps dust and loose debris into an attached bucket so it can be emptied at a suitable location. It collects material rather than simply pushing it to the side.

When to choose it

  • Cleaning hardstand areas and site access roads
  • Collecting loose dirt after construction work
  • Sweeping paved areas before further work

When it’s not the right call

  • Large rubble. Remove oversized and heavy waste before sweeping.
  • Fine-dust capture. A broom is not a vacuum or a certified silica-dust capture system. Assess the required dust controls.
  • Sticky deposits. Wet, adhered material may need a different cleaning method before sweeping.

Sizes we work with

The size depends on your machine and the job. Share the carrier make and model, material and dimensions so we can check the setup.

Using your own machine or hiring ours? Include that in your enquiry.

The Right Setup Starts Here

Tell us what you need to get done. A few key details about your job help us specify, configure and commission the right attachment for your machine, application and site requirements.

  • Sweepings: Debris type, size and dust hazards.
  • Surface: Pavement condition, area and access width.
  • Disposal: Emptying location and any water-suppression requirements.
  • Your machine: Make, model, mounting plate, rated operating capacity and relevant hydraulic or electrical controls.

Common questions

What is a bucket broom used for?

A rotating broom that sweeps dust and loose debris into an attached bucket for site clean-up.

Does a bucket broom control dust?

Sweeping can raise dust. Confirm the dust controls and whether water suppression is needed.

Will a bucket broom collect rubble?

Remove large rubble first; it is for loose sweepings.

Bucket broom or angle broom?

A bucket broom collects material; an angle broom pushes it aside.

Will a bucket broom fit my skid steer or track loader?

Send us the machine make and model, mounting plate details and hydraulic flow and pressure. The bucket broom's weight, the loader's rated operating capacity and any electrical controls also need to match. We check the combination before it mobilises so it arrives ready to work.
