Wheeled Bins

Product code F21-WB-120 / -240 / -660

Where the used absorbent goes. A spill kit is only half a system: the pads come back saturated, and they need somewhere lidded and movable before the next shift walks past them.

Quoted on enquiry

These depend on your order, your market or the certificate that covers your run, so we quote them rather than publish one figure that would be wrong for most buyers. Ask and you get the number for your specification.

  • EN 840 lifting compatibility
  • Minimum order quantity

Before you order: A bin that has collected absorbent inherits whatever the absorbent soaked up. Pads from a fuel or chemical spill are usually hazardous waste, and that decides who may take them away and under what paperwork. The bin carries no such classification of its own.

The Range

Sizes in this range

Three capacities. Read max load against saturated absorbent rather than against volume — wet pads reach the limit long before the bin looks full.

Dimensions are length × width × height and weights are empty, both nominal. Load figures are the manufacturer’s published values; ask us for the test basis before you specify against them. The figure to check your containment rule against is the sump capacity, not the footprint.

Why It Is Built This Way

What makes this product different

01

A spill kit ends in a bin

A kit that has been used is a kit full of saturated pads. Until they are lidded and on wheels they are a slip hazard sitting next to the spill that made them.

02

Two wheels or four castors, decided by weight

The 120 and 240 tilt and pull on two wheels, which is what one person moves across a yard. The 660 runs on four castors, because a quarter of a tonne does not tilt.

03

Yellow does the labelling for you

A yellow bin beside a bund is visibly not general waste, and nobody has to be told twice. Where a site wants the distinction in writing, the lid or body is printed to order.

04

Max load is the figure people skip

Saturated absorbent is heavy, and 48 kg on the 120 is reached long before it looks full. The load rating, not the litre figure, is what sizes a bin for wet pads.

Compliance by market

What this product has to satisfy, market by market

The regimes that apply to this type of container in each market we ship to, with the detail behind each one a click away. This is what the market asks for; what this particular design already holds is in the specification above.

Orientation for specification, not legal advice, and not a statement that this design holds a given approval. Requirements turn on the exact design, contents and destination, and they change. Tell us the market at enquiry and we confirm what applies to your specification, what we hold and what we would need to obtain.

Questions, Answered

The things buyers ask before they order

What are the wheeled bins made from, and why are they yellow?

All three sizes are moulded HDPE in yellow. On a site that also runs general waste bins the colour does the labelling: a yellow bin standing at the bund reads as spill kit rather than rubbish without anyone having to mark it.

Which size carries the most weight?

Max load is 48 kg on the 120 litre, 96 kg on the 240 and 264 kg on the 660. Saturated absorbent is heavy, so the load rating rather than the litre figure is what sizes a bin for used pads.

Will the bins fit a standard refuse collection vehicle?

The 120 and 240 are two-wheeled bins in the sizes EN 840 Part 1 covers, and the 660 is a four-wheeled container under Part 2. Check the lifting profile against your collection contractor's vehicle before you order, because that is the dimension that has to match.

Can I put used absorbent from a fuel or chemical spill in one?

That is what they are for. The waste inside carries its own classification though: pads soaked with fuel or chemicals are usually hazardous waste, which decides how you store them and who is licensed to remove them. The bin itself carries no classification.

Can the bins be printed with our own markings?

Yes, on the lid or the body. Send us the artwork and the quantity and we will quote the printing with the bins.

How many fit in a shipping container?

700 of the 120 litre per 20GP and 1,700 per 40HQ, 500 and 1,150 for the 240, and 60 and 150 for the 660. Those are the factory's published figures and they are unpalletised.
