Have you thought about what a new baler costs?
Learn more from Mil-tek about the various aspects that go into calculating the cost to purchase a brand-new waste baler.
What is the price of a brand-new baler?
If your business produces a lot of recyclable and non-recyclable waste and you still dispose of it using standard dumpsters, you undoubtedly already know how inefficient this procedure is. You end up with mountains of waste that need to be removed, because otherwise they consume a lot of valuable space and are generally inconvenient for business. What then can you do to improve the effectiveness of this procedure?
Utilizing balers and compactors that have been properly developed to hold and compact waste is the best way to dispose of it. These machines were developed specifically to compress various and specific waste types into blocks that could be conveniently stored, disposed of, and repurposed. Depending on the kind of waste being produced, there are many different types and sizes of balers and compactors.
This seems perfect, but you might be curious about the price of a brand-new baler. The cost will vary depending on the kind of baler you require, its size, the amount of waste it can condense, and your financing options.
Keep reading if you’re interested in learning more about the different kinds of balers that are available and how much they cost.
Small balers
Waste balers are available in a variety of sizes, from tiny/micro to very large/mill-size. Small balers, of course, with a load capacity of under 120 kg, are the most economical. These are ideal for retailers, small manufacturers, and healthcare-related companies.
For cardboard, plastic, polystyrene, and cans, small balers are available. Choose a compactor if you require a device for general waste.
Medium balers
A baler that can compact more than 100 kg of garbage is a terrific choice if you’re searching for a bigger solution. These balers are perfect for retail, hospitality, restaurant, and catering enterprises. Although they will cost a little more, these balers can condense between 100 and 180 kg of waste.
There are a variety of medium-sized balers available that are primarily used for cardboard and soft or hard plastic and are powered by compressed air, hydraulics, or electricity. The final cost is influenced by the kind of power source.
Large balers
Larger balers and compactors produce waste bales weighing 180 to 300 kg, but they occupy a lot of room (more than 1 m2). These devices are ideal for businesses that produce large amounts of waste every day.
These balers can effectively reduce waste volume and simplify garbage management when used.
Mill-size balers
There are mill-size choices available for businesses who need to condense more than 300kg of garbage. These are the priciest balers because they are substantial machines that can condense up to 500 kg of garbage into “mill-size” bales that are ready for recycling.
Industrial businesses including factories, warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturers, and recyclers benefit greatly from them because they greatly simplify the management of large volumes of waste.
Finance and electricity sources are further factors
Balers can be powered by a variety of systems, most often electric, hydraulic, and pneumatic. Depending on the machine, the price may change. Additionally, the energy needed to run the machine varies depending on whether it is powered by single-phase, three-phase, or compressed air.
A crucial element is financing. Many businesses contract their recycling equipment in order to spread out the expense rather than paying it all at once. Here, a variety of choices are accessible, including leasing, hire-purchase, and rental.
