AUTOMATION
The clearest trend since the advent of the wheelie bin as modernised waste collection strategies increased across the globe is the development and adoption of automatic bin lift systems. Due primarily to the increasing cost of labour and explosive growth of the number of wheeled bins, 90% of what Terberg Machines manufactures are fully automatic bin lift systems and are used the empty 1,000 to 1,500 bins per day. It is only when emptying large bins of commercial waste that time is less relevant and manually operated systems can sometime prove more cost effective. An early innovator in their field, Terberg Machines began designing and manufacturing such automatic systems over thirty years ago. Then, as now, they aimed to support our customers with advanced technology to make their waste collection operations more efficient, more safe and with an optimised Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
