Micro Recycling Sites
Clamps for 240 and 360 litres wheeled bins

BESPOKE DESIGNS
All equipment is built to order and can be made to fit any mould of wheeled bin; we would be pleased to quote for both clamps and bins as required. There are various options to choose from with a choice of finish in galvanised steel, recommended for external sites including seaside locations, or stove enamel paint in any colour for internal sites.

BIN PLACEMENTS AND SIMPLE OPERATION
The handles of each wheeled bin are clamped from 1 up to 5 placements in-line, with one lever action to release or secure the containers, using a chamber padlock keyed alike. Placements can be back-to-back allowing up to 10 placements per site (about the area of a typical car parking space) without needing extra posts.

POSTS AND OVERHEAD SIGNAGE
For 2 or more places, a maximum of 2 galvanised steel posts are needed with the option of high posts and an overhead slot for retaining a signboard e.g. text RECYCLING CENTRE signboards are maximum 2,400 long x 400mm high, are normally silkscreen printed for durability and can be customised to include logos.

SITE SELECTION
Each mainframe clamp can be directly wall mounted or fixed to galvanised steel posts. Posts can either have a base plate and 4 bolt holes for permanent fixing into a prepared level concrete base, be fitted to a soil anchoring device or alternatively be supplied with a paving slab tray with bins on the slabs, to weight the whole unit. The latter option gives the flexibility to install and remove the Micro Recycling clamps at temporary locations e.g. market places, shows, festivals and fetes and in more sensitive residential areas where public acceptance of the facility first needs to be gained.

LID OPENING RESTRICTORS AND LABEL PLATES
Lid opening restrictors can be fitted to either keep the lid of the bin completely closed or to allow the lid to be raised (usually 150-200mm), with a wide enough gap to allow recyclate (but not sacks of refuse) to be placed in the bin. Segregated materials can still be posted through a lid aperture in the bin. Lid locks on wheeled bins are not usually necessary with lid opening restrictors, which are welded at a set angle to the clamp. Label plates can be a part of each lid restrictor with a vinyl label at eye level for visual clarity, indicating the material to be segregated and placed into each bin e.g. CANS, GLASS, PLASTIC BOTTLES, PAPER or LITTER. Optional tactile signs in Braille can be supplied to aid the visually impaired.
