Product Information

Full details

The Slingsby Large Storage Containers with Hinged Lids are designed for professional environments, warehouse operations, and office settings that require organized waste management or efficient general storage. With a generous 50L capacity and durable polypropylene construction, these bins offer a practical solution for segregating materials and maximizing floor space through their stackable and nestable design; however, they require the purchase of a separate castor pack if frequent mobility is needed.

FAQs

What is the total capacity of each bin?

Each bin provides a 50L capacity.

Can these bins be used outside?

While the polypropylene is durable, they are primarily designed for indoor use. Prolonged UV exposure can degrade the material.

Are the castor wheels included?

No, the castor pack is available as an optional add-on and must be purchased separately.

How do I clean the bin?

Use a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive chemicals to preserve the finish.

What are the dimensions of the unit?

The overall dimensions excluding the lid are 335mm (H) x 430mm (W) x 640mm (D).

Does the container come with a lid?

Yes, each container is supplied with an articulated hinged lid.

Troubleshooting

Lid does not stay open or falls shut

Check the hinge pins for debris or misalignment. Ensure the lid is snapped fully into the rear seat of the bin housing.

Container feels unstable when stacked

Verify that the bins are identical in model and that they are seated flush within the nesting/stacking rims of the lower unit.

Wheel movement is stiff (if castors are installed)

Clear any lint, string, or debris wrapped around the castor axle and check if the wheel mounting plate is tightened correctly to the base.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Efficient space-saving design with nesting capability
  • Secure hinged lids prevent odour leakage
  • Robust polypropylene material ensures longevity
  • Ideal size for standard waste and bulk storage
  • Facilitates organized waste segregation systems

Cons

  • Castor wheels for mobility must be purchased separately
  • Single-colour finish may require labels for specific waste types
  • Requires assembly of the hinge mechanism if not pre-installed

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using your Slingsby container, attach the articulated lid by aligning the hinge pins with the designated slots on the rear of the bin body. If you have purchased the optional castor pack, invert the container carefully and attach the wheels to the reinforced base corners as per the installation instructions.

For ongoing care, the polypropylene surface is easy to maintain; wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove grime or spills. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish. Periodically inspect the hinge mechanism to ensure it remains free of debris, which keeps the lid motion smooth. These bins are intended for indoor use primarily; exposure to extreme direct sunlight over long periods may cause the plastic to become brittle.
