Storage Bins, Bunkers & Hoppers

Custom-fabricated storage that holds sorted materials until they're needed for baling or other processing — added to an existing system, or built into a new one.

Remcon can fabricate custom storage bins, bunkers, and hoppers for holding and storing sorted materials until needed for baling or other processing. These can be added to an existing system if more storage is needed, or incorporated into a new system.

Options for Storage of Recyclables and Other Materials

There are many different options available for the design of storage structures, and Remcon can work with you to come up with the best solution that will work with your system.

  • Custom live floor bins
  • Sloping floor, gravity out-feed
  • Self-emptying, walking floor out-feed
  • Self-emptying, conveyor out-feed
  • Bunker walls and doors, which can also be built to support a sorting platform and conveyor
