Recycling Bins: Doing Our Part to Save the Planet

Friday, September 30th, 2011

Recycling Bins Once, recycling was the domain only of those who had a heightened consciousness of the positive impact it can have on our fragile environment. These days, recycling is a mainstream activity that nearly everyone supports. To make it easy, many types of dedicated recycling bins are widely available. These bins have specialised features that make recycling quite simple and straightforward. One bin we think is very well designed for its specific purpose is the front load 22.5 litre stackable recycler. Here’s a brief review.

Recycling Bins: Their Main Features

Recycling bins like the 22.5 litre model are especially popular, mainly because they’re very easy to handle, and conveniently stack to save space. These standalone bins offer a superior combination of value and durability, along with the high functionality customers demand. A typical bin has a hinged lid that’s sometimes operated by a pedal. There are a number of bin styles available, many of which are designed to accommodate a specific product being recycled, such as bottles or cans. Bins can be manufactured from many types of materials, but most are made of steel or plastic.

Recycling Bins: Specialised Features of the Front Load Stackable Model

One feature you’re sure to appreciate is the coloured dial on the bin that you can adjust to show the container’s contents: glass, paper, aluminium or plastic. Since bins aren’t exactly decorative items, this one is small enough to stow away out of sight in a standard-sized cabinet or cupboard. The opening on the bin is round, which makes it very easy to deposit bottles and cans. For larger items, there’s a secondary lid that lifts up. With an ergonomic design and small footprint, this bin is well-suited for locations with limited space.

Recycling Bins: More About the 22.5 Litre Stacking Model

The bin’s design allows users to stack two together, or to simply place multiple units next to each other for easy access. Designed to be extremely durable, the bin is manufactured from dent proof plastic. The smooth surface is very easy to keep clean and sanitary. To clean it, simply wash the bin with water and detergent. Rinse thoroughly, and let it dry completely. Spray the bin with a deodorising disinfectant, and it’s ready for use.

Recycling Bins: Dimensions of the 22.5 Stacker

The bin measures 48 x 26.5 x 44.5cm (H x W x D). When the lid is open, then its height is 58cm, so do be sure to measure the place where you plan to use it, such as a cupboard or under a sink. The bin comes in a black or grey colour, and are suitable for using both at home or in business settings. Finally, the bin carries a full 5-year guarantee against manufacturing defects. If you plan to buy more than one recycling bin of this type, do be sure to enquire about receiving a quantity discount.
