The curbside residential carts usually are made plastic, light, usually plastic bins that are mobile. The plastic containers are made by an injection or rotational molding process. All of these are emptied by the garbage hauler, who will load the contents into a garbage truck and drive it to a landfill, incinerator or consuming crush facility to be disposed of.

In some areas there is also a recycling service, often with one or more dedicated bins intended to receive items that can be recycled into new products. These bins are separated into different categories (usually represented by colors) which determine what materials can be inserted into the bin. The most common materials used for recycling are paper, glass, metal, plastics and “green waste” (compostable material, either garden waste or food scraps or both).

A waste container is a container for temporarily storing waste, which is usually made out of metal or plastic. Common terms are rubbish bin, litter bin, garbage can, trash can, trash bin, dumpster, Container Bin, Bin trash can, waste can, and rubbish barrel; the word “can” generally refers to a container made out of metal. The words “rubbish” and “bin” are more common in British English usage; “trash” and “can” are more common in American English usage.

Rotational Molding is a versatile process for creating many kinds of mostly hollow items, typically of plastic. The phrase is often shortened to rotomolding
A heated mold causes the material within to melt and form a puddle at the bottom of the mold cavity. The mold is then slowly rotated causing the melted material to flow into to the mold and stick to its walls. In order to maintain even thickness throughout the part, the mold continues to rotate during the cooling phase. The process was applied to plastics in the 1940s but in the early years was little used because it was a slow process restricted to a small number of plastics. Over the past two decades, improvements in process control and developments with plastic powders have resulted in a significant increase in usage.

Hydraulic cylinders get their power from pressurized hydraulic fluid, which is typically oil. The cylinder consists of a cylinder barrel, in which a piston connected to a piston rod is moving. The barrel is closed by the cylinder bottom and by the cylinder head where the piston rod comes out of the cylinder. The piston has sliding rings and seals. The piston divides the inside of the cylinder in two chambers, the bottom chamber and the piston rod side chamber. The hydraulic pressure acts on the piston to do linear work. A hydraulic cylinder is the actuator or “motor” side of this system. The “generator” side of the hydraulic system is the hydraulic pump, which brings a fixed or regulated flow of oil into the system. Mounting brackets or clevises are mounted to the cylinder bottom as well as the piston rod. By pumping hydraulic oil to the bottom side of the hydraulic cylinder, the piston rod starts moving upward. The piston pushes the oil in the other chamber back to the reservoir. If we assume that the oil pressure in the piston rod chamber is zero, the force on the piston rod equals the pressure in the cylinder times the piston area. If the oil is pumped into the piston rod side chamber and the oil from the piston area flows back to the reservoir without pressure, the pressure in the piston rod area chamber is Pull Force. In this way the hydraulic cylinder can both push and pull.

The roll off truck hoist systems are frequently seen hauling roll offs filled with household garbage, construction debris, and metal scraps. These systems come in different sizes and are manufactured by many different companies world wide. One of the medium sized hoist is the EZ rolloff truck hoist system, which has a 20,000 pound hoist capacity. This hoist can carry up to a 25 cubic yard container. Some large systems carry up to a 40 yard container, which is for your very large work jobs.

Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil is a premium lubricant designed to degrade to its natural state when subjected to sunlight, water and microbial activity. Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil is especially well suited for applications where environmental contamination due to leaking or blown hydraulic lines presents an environmental hazard.

A compactor is a machine or mechanism used to reduce the size of waste material or soil through compaction.

Normally powered by hydraulics, compactors take many shapes and sizes.

Powder Coating is a type of dry coating, which is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The coating is typically applied electrostatically and is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a “skin.” The powder may be a thermoplastic or a thermoset polymer. It is usually used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint. Powder coating is mainly used for coating of metals.

Nedland Industries manufactures the current line of EZrolloff 12,000# and 16,000# G.V.W. roll off trailers, containers and accessories. The EZrolloff trailer is the only roll off system in the industry to offer a five-year structural warranty on all equipment. This system has the most reliable wireless remote control, with the best available warranty. All trailers are powder coated. These systems come in pintle or gooseneck setup. This also is a standard outside rail cable pull system, which means that the containers can be used with a large rolloff truck.

The Poly Dura Kan containers are 1/3 the weight of steel containers. These waste containers also have a five year warranty, which is the best containers warranty in the industry. The Poly Dura Kan containers are the first and longest manufactured plastic containers available. The frame and pockets on the containers are powder coated black to help prevent corrosion. The Poly Dura Kan product is built to last.
