Frequently Asked Questions
1. Do you offer baler hire in the UK?
Baler hire is available on a wide selection of different sizes and types of waste baler. For more details, visit our dedicated Baler Rentals page.
2. Do you sell used Waste Balers?
All our used Balers and Compactors have been expertly refurbished by our own team of engineers and are supplied with 6 month comprehensive warranty including parts, labour and engineer travel time for added reassurance.
3. How can I tell whether a Compactor or a Waste Baler will save my business money?
The fastest way to calculate the financial benefits of a compactor or waste baler is with a free trial. To help you choose the most appropriate equipment for your needs and budget, enlist the support from an experienced installer like QCR. With our 25 years of waste baling experience, QCR is often considered the first choice for businesses and organisations in the UK looking to cut operational expenses by installing a waste compactor.
4. Can you bale different types of waste together?
Whilst it's possible, bales containing mixed waste types aren't recommended for the following reasons:
- Rejection risk: Bales containing mixed materials may be rejected by your registered waste carrier because they need to be re-processed before they can be recycled.
- Regulatory compliance: In many parts of the UK, businesses are required by law to segregate recyclable materials from waste destined for landfill.
- Prevents recycling: Heavily contaminated bales cannot be recycled so go to landfill instead.
5. Can waste balers be installed outside?
You can install a Waste Baler outside (but eletric balers must have an IP55 rating). Installing a baler under a shelter or inside a building will prolong its life and reduce potential wear and tear from exposure to the elements.
6. How long does it take to make a bale using a waste baler?
The time it takes to make bale depends on how fast you can load waste into the compaction chamber and the speed of the compaction cycle.
7. Do waste baler operators need training?
Yes. All waste baler users are legally required to undergo formal training. Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER), employers must provide adequate training and instruction to anyone operating a waste baler. The Health and Safety Excutive (HSE) strongly recommends that baler operators undergo refresher training every 3 to 5 years. You will also need to arrange re-training if you operate the baler unsafely or upgrade to a different model.
