Take Care of These Factors While Investing in Hook Lift Bins

Waste management, demolition and construction companies are often seen comparing skip bins for sale. Being heavy users of these containers, they need to invest in the best of units. On the face all skip and hook lift bins appear similar but their quality can differ widely and it is good to be aware of the features and conditions that characterize a value for money proposition.

Choose from a range of sizes

If a seller has a stock of bins in only one size and persuades you to buy the same, don’t go for it immediately. Look into your own requirements and the space where this bin will be used often and then make a decision. There is a range of sizes available with trusted suppliers and it goes up to 40 cubic meters. Why buy a unit that is too small to carry the stuff you will put into it or too large to fit in your clients’ sites? Remember that hook heights and rail spacing can also be customized as per your needs.

Look for bins that can also be locked

The hook lift bins that you purchase should be lockable and have waterproof walls. The Australian market does have user-friendly bins with side opening rear doors and strong main runner rails. The lifting lugs should also be well engineered to enable safe loading of things.

Inspect the quality closely and ask questions about the kinds of things that can be put in such bins. This is particularly required when you are in a business with heavy usage of skip bins. Ideally a bin should be suitable for different non-compactable materials such as wood, soil, metal, bricks and concrete.

Can the waste streams be deposited in more than one way?

Good quality hook lift and skip bins enable the depositing of waste streams by hand, conveyer belts, shafts, channels, cranes and other specialist equipment. They should be sturdy enough to be used with a variety of other systems.

Ask for reports to verify the quality of bins

Some manufacturers and suppliers of these huge bins have documented proofs to corroborate the quality of their products. You can ask for waste assessments of their hook lift and skip bins, the audits and other reports to ensure that your waste targets will be met by the purchased units and the environmental accreditations are also attained.

Successful hook lift systems available in Australian cities are tailored for large volume industrial and commercial applications. They can also help in managing light weight construction and demolition waste. Because of their large sizes, the chief requirement is that they get adequate space for storage the movement of truck that carries them.

To put your money in the right place, you simply need to explore the multiple options around you. Look into bin specifications – the depth, width and height. Ask for the collection operation in detail from delivery of the bin to your site to the disposal of waste at another. Also check the accessories and customization options that come with them. Then make a decision.
