Bulk bins and compactors
>
Our range of bulk bins and compactors provide efficient solutions for large volumes of waste and recycling. Having a bulk bin or compactor onsite can help you reduce waste transportation costs and increase waste management efficiencies.
Bulk bin collections can be scheduled to suit operational requirements and are also available on request to process large one-off volumes of waste and recycling.
We work closely with customers to analyse operational waste streams. We can provide a comprehensive waste audit and will work with you to tailor a total waste management solution for your business. Find out more about our bulk bins, compactors and specialised equipment:
Bulk Bins
Our bulk bins utilise a hooklift system for our roll on/ roll off (RORO) fleet. Bulk bins are best suited to generators of large volumes of solid waste unsuitable for compaction .
Bulk bin features
- General waste and recycling systems available
- Bin stored onsite
- Capacity for large amounts of waste
- Range of sizes available – small to large trucks
- Safe, easy depositing of waste through walk in doors and large open tops
- Tippler feeder bin options available to reduce manual handling
- Reduces traffic movement onsite
- Automatic tarping system fitted to vehicles and where required to individual bins.
Bulk bin applications
- Suitable for large generators of commercial and industrial wastes
- Ideal for bulky waste and large non-compactable waste and recyclable materials
- Suitable for recyclable and non-recyclable wastes
- Businesses with enough space to store the bin onsite
- Utilised by construction and manufacturing industries, shopping centres and hospitals
- Specialist containers available, including liquid waste containers, sealed quarantine bins and containers for regulated waste
Bulk bin container sizes
Containers range from 6m³ to 40m³ in a roll on/roll off system.

Site requirements
Compaction systems require enough space for the truck to safely approach and lift the compactor. Consider the following requirements to ensure the compactor option is suitable:
Vehicle access: 3.8m (h) x 2.5m (w) x 10m (l)
Vehicle height in operation: 7.1 metres
Vehicle length in operation: 16.5 metres
Vehicle turning circle: 22.1 metres

Specialised equipment
We provide a range of bulk bins and equipment to suit specific applications:
Tippler bins
A safe and efficient solution for collecting and disposing of hazardous or industrial waste. Tippler bins are manufactured in heavy gauge steel and are fully reinforced, allowing the forklift operator to simply catch the bin lip on the edge of the bulk bin or compactor and drives backwards to tip waste into the container. Tippler bins provide a safe option which eliminates manual handling of waste.
Craneable bins
Mostly used in the construction industry, crane lift bins provide an easy way of removing waste from building worksites requiring the waste to be craned away. Our highly engineered crane lift bins are tested and certified to exceed all Workcover requirements.
Offshore bins
We provide bulk waste bins and ISO containers that are tested and certified for use on offshore rigs and facilities.
Roll Packer
Ideal for large quantities of bulky waste or recyclable materials requiring compaction in open top containers. The Bergmann Roll-Packer system uses the movement of a heavy, specially equipped compaction roller to crush and compact materials such as timber pallets. This reduces the quantity of waste to a fraction of the original volume. The Roller Packer provides operating efficiencies by reducing waste transport costs and allowing optimal usage of bins and processing areas.
Recycling balers
Mainly used for cardboard, Cleanaway’s baling plants provide efficient waste management solutions to compact and bale materials for easy and safe handling.
Bin availability varies by location.
