Can your bins handle the heat?

When it comes to bins, there are few commercial environments more demanding than those in hospitality and food service. From busy kitchens back of house to turning over guest rooms quickly, bustling gyms and other areas front of house, 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.

Investing in durability pays off

Buying waste and recycling containers that are designed to last a long time means you buy better and waste less money in the long-run, and less time and effort sourcing replacements. Not only this, long-lasting products can see sustainability benefits too:

Look for longevity

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. Manufacturing and distributing a product every 10-15 years is ecologically better than multiple remanufacturing processes during that time.

Added peace of mind

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.
