LEGO 622-1 Tipper Truck is a Town Classic set released in 1978, containing 45 pieces. It builds a yellow dump truck with a street sign. Designed for the first year of standardized minifigures, it uses a smaller cab with a sloped windshield and headlight bricks compared to the 1974 version. The model features a tipper bucket and fewer wheels than earlier Tipper Trucks, with the yellow bucket using a mold unique to this release and differing from the blue bucket used in other sets.

A new and sealed Tipper Truck is currently valued at around $213, with annual growth of approximately 3%, which is lower than other Classic sets. The average used price is $5 for those in good overall condition. Based on current trends, this set could be valued near $221 within the next year.
Tipper Truck is a relatively rare vintage set. We have not seen set 622-1 for sale in primary or secondary markets for over 6 months. Its market value is likely somewhat higher than our estimate. The last brand new Tipper Truck was sold on eBay.

“The 1978 Tipper Truck builds on the 1974 original with design improvements like a smaller cab to accommodate minifigures, a sturdier tipping mechanism using Technic elements, and updated wheels. While it retains classic features such as the sloped windshield and Tipper bucket, this version introduces stickers.”
 

About Town Classic

The LEGO Town Classic theme, active from 1978 to 1981, introduced foundational sets that established the urban layout concept in the LEGO world. Notable sets include 1592 Town Square Castle Scene, which combined medieval and modern elements, and 381-2 Police Headquarters, a prominent city infrastructure piece. The 379 Bus Station provided public transport centrality, while 600-2 Police Car offered essential city law enforcement. These sets, among others, played a critical role in defining the classic LEGO town aesthetic.

Classic consists of 45 sets that ran from 1978 to 1981. As of today, 1592 Town Square Castle Scene is the most valuable Classic set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $2,611.
