(Q2) Is this Bin compatible to current collection trucks and how will the process change?

(A) Global Bins 360 System is fully compatible with existing trucks. Collection trucks will continue to operate in the same manner. There will be no change or alteration to the present system. There will be no additional costs to the Public, but there maybe a minor charge to the operators’ costs ie. Technology Adaptations.

(Q3) Will the 360L Bin be too heavy to manage for the householder?

(A)The 360 Litre Bin is in use with some Boroughs and Councils in the UK, as it is in use in various countries of the E.U. Global Bins 360L will be different to a normal 360 Litre Bin, due to it having split compartments, which can accommodate any number of individual waste streams. GlobalBin360 System will eliminate the need to have multiple Bins outside all of our homes.

(Q4) How does the Bin actually work with separate lids?

(A)Our Bin works through a unique Patented locking system that will ensure that one lid remains closed whilst the other lid is opened in order to facilitate the emptying of that section of the GlobalBins360 System at time of collection. Should a Council /Borough or Private Operator wish to order Global Bin 360L with even more individual waste streams, then the same unique Patented locking system will allow for each individual lid to be opened whilst the other lids remain locked.

(Q5) How many compartments will my Bin actually have and how big is each compartment?

(A) The number of compartments and size of each compartment can very. Ultimately, this will be determined by the given authority (Borough, Council or a Private Operator) placing the order as they will best know their requirements. Obviously the order (for manufacturing purposes & to achieve best pricing) will have to be substantial (this has yet to be determined). Generally each Council, Borough or Private Operator will know the market conditions in their area best. For example, the typical breakdown within the compartments could be, Glass, Plastics, Steel Cans & Aluminium Cans, with each compartment of course containing it’s own individual separated recyclable product therein.

(Q6) Will Global Bins be able to provide a larger or smaller Bin.

(A) Yes - Once again the Council, Borough or Private Operator will play a pivotal role in this situation. They will already be aware of the demands that they have on either larger or smaller Bins and will order accordingly. Global Bins can then step in to supply as per order (relevant order sizing will apply).

(Q7) Will Global Bins be able to offer the present operators the same “chip” that monitors the weight of one’s waste.

(A) Yes we will, not alone will we offer the operator the same facility that he / she presently has but we will go further and enhance this information by making available information regarding the given householders recycling rates.
