Can your bins handle the heat?
When it comes to bins, commercial environments are demanding. Whether it’s a relentless kitchen back of house, a bustling stadium, busy office or hectic warehouse, your waste containers will come under a significant amount of pressure throughout the day.
When upgrading your waste systems to comply with new recycling legislation, it might be tempting to get the job done cheaply. However, the risks of buying cheap – maybe even consumer-grade bins that are not built to withstand commercial use – will only see you waste valuable time and money on making replacements further down the line.
If you’re having to replace flimsy bins on a regular basis, not only is it a nuisance, but it’s also a huge waste of resources. We regularly see bins that are cheaper from the outset but don't stand the test of time due to the rigours of daily business; save yourself the hassle and cost of re-ordering by looking for longevity.
Look out for waste and recycling products that carry long warranties, giving you confidence in their longevity and greater control over the sustainability impact of your purchase decisions now, and during the lifetime of those products. With multi-year warranties on bins, your business can feel reassured that you have chosen products you can rely on year after year.
How far can you drag a waste container? How many severe impacts could a bin survive after being frozen? We're asking the big questions so you don't have to.
