Skid Steer, Rock Buckets and you!
Skid Steer Rock Buckets are essential for successful hands-on work. The rock bucket is designed to clear large rocks. The bucket allows the dirt to sift through the bucket and back into the soil. That might not sound like a lot to people outside of our work. However, it is a godsend.
The fear of many farmers and outdoorsmen is that these heavy pieces of equipment will destroy a property in order to correct one aspect of it. While the rock bucket might be aggressive, it offers an unparalleled degree of break-out force. Your rock buckets aren’t going to get stuck in the dirt when you need it the most.
The sheer power applied to that rock bucket by your skid steer is going to clear whatever rocky debris might face you. Naturally, it won’t be needed on every job. However, we can think of nothing better to have when facing down materials that might just be too heavy for the average person to lift.
Be prepared and do the job right every single time. Browse the Stinger Attachments Rock Buckets page to get an idea of which bucket is right for you. Pick up a rock bucket attachment for your skid steer today!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a skid steer rock bucket used for?
A rock bucket separates and clears rocks, roots, and debris from soil. Its spaced tines or grate let dirt sift back to the ground while the bucket holds the rocks, so you clean up a field or site without hauling away good soil.
How is a rock bucket different from a standard bucket?
A standard bucket scoops and holds everything, including dirt. A rock bucket has openings that let loose soil fall through, so you keep the rocks and debris and leave the dirt behind.
What can I use a rock bucket for?
Common jobs include clearing fields and food plots, grading and site prep, removing rocks and roots after excavation, and cleaning up construction or landscaping debris.
Will a Stinger rock bucket work with my machine?
Stinger rock buckets use a universal quick-attach plate and are available for skid steers, compact tractors, tractors, and wheel loaders. Match the width and weight to your machine’s operating capacity for best results.
Are Stinger rock buckets strong enough for heavy material?
Yes. They are built for high break-out force so they dig in and clear rocky material without getting stuck, and they are manufactured to hold up to heavy, repeated use.
