Trash Dumpster Options:
The trainable system is designed with a rigid support running the length of the container bottom. This bar is bolted onto two welded plates which reduce the stress on the container by bearing the weight during towing by pulling on the metal plates instead of on the caster plates or container body. Both Pintle Hook and Spring Loaded are trainable. The difference is just in the way that the trainable bar grabs the tongue. Usually, the standard spring-loaded option is fine but sometimes customers want to upgrade to a pintle hook, usually it has to do with the equipment they already currently have or they want something really heavy-duty. This is usually a personal choice.
This design offers years of maintenance-free service. The trainable package is shipped unassembled, allowing the containers to be stacked which minimizes freight costs.
Lock Bar / Chain Lock Options
Lock bar can be installed on any front-load plastic dumpster. Chain lock is used primarily for Rear Load containers but can be installed on any front-load container as well.
