Have you thought about utilising your forklift truck to safely handle wheelie bins ?

Wheelie bins are an ever popular choice for waste receptacles in the working environment. While their lightweight mobile design can make positioning and moving over short distances easier, it is often difficult to dispense the contents into a larger waste container ready for collection.
Contact have developed a range of forklift wheelie bin handlers to aid transportation and tipping of these containers.

Forklift Wheelie Bin Handler - Suit 660+ Litre Flat Lid Wheelie Bins
Forklift Wheelie Bin Handler – Suit 660+ Litre Flat Lid Wheelie Bins

This forklift wheelie bin tipper allows simple lift and empty operation of a large wheelie bin. The forklift wheelie bin handler attachment slides onto the forks of the lift truck and is retained by heel pins. Lifting slots on the wheelie bin handler locate on the side trunnions of the wheelie bins. To empty a wheelie bin simply raise the forklift wheelie bin handler to the required height so that the side of the recepticle is positioned on the base of the bin. When forward motion is applied the bin rotates to the required angle on the trunnions until the waste is emptied. (Only suitable for large wheelie bins with flat lids & side trunnions).
