We supply Recycling Equipment to many agricultural businesses in the UK to help them reduce the cost of disposing of their waste plastics. Tractor mounted Agri balers can be a real helping hand for farms who produce a lot of hay and farm plastics. Equally, growers from the horticulture industry have benefited from our range of Vertical Plastic Balers to help them dispose of their used plastic pots and trays in a more economical way. Below is an example of where QCR supplied baling equipment to a farm to reduce their plastic bale wrap disposal costs.
QCR supply Tractor Mounted Plastic Baler at Hampshire Farm
The farm who contacted QCR supplied large and small bales to their customers in Hampshire and wanted a Plastic Baler to help dispose of their waste plastics which had previously gone into a skip and then to landfill. Each skip used to cost them £480 to empty which equated to an annual waste disposal costs of £2,400/year.
Solution
After an initial site survey, they purchased a Tractor mounted baler from QCR. Investing in the plastic wrap baler makes great sense as long term they will make significant savings and the cost to produce haylage bales will decrease. The plastic baler brings massive volume reduction benefits and the farm is cleaner, tidier and has reduced rodent problems. The baled haylage wrap is neatly stacked until there is enough to instruct QCR to arrange collection. We take care of this and provide them with a waste transfer note for their records. The plastic is then recycled make new plastic products. What's more, because the waste baler is tractor mounted it can be transported easily to their second farm to bale plastic there too, instead of trailering it back to the main farm which was messy and time consuming.
