Metal Rotator Bins are heavy-duty steel rollover bins built for demanding metal recycling and industrial scrap applications. Available in capacities from ½ cubic yard to 3 cubic yards with load ratings of 6,500 lbs., these metal rotator boxes are designed for efficient forklift handling, dumping, and repeated use in tough environments.
Metal recyclers beat the heck out of containers. That’s just the reality.
Sharp and heavy steel scrap, salvage parts, shredded material. Most containers aren’t built to handle these types of loads day in or day out.
Metal rotator bins, also called rollover bins are built for metal recycling operations and the kind of material that comes with them.
A steel rotator box works with a rotating fork attachment on your forklift. Pick it up, tip it, dump it. No climbing, no manual release. One operator, one forklift, done.
