What’s the Price of Buying a Brand New Baler?
Explore the various factors that impact the cost of buying a brand-new trash baler from Mil-tek.
How much is it to purchase a brand-new baler?
If your business produces large amounts of both recyclable and non-recyclable trash but still relies on standard bins, you’ve likely noticed how inefficient that can be. Soon, you’re left with overflowing piles of trash that must be removed – otherwise, they consume valuable space and create unnecessary hassle for your operations. So, what’s the smarter solution to streamline this process and keep your workspace running smoothly?
What is the average price of a baler?
One of the most effective ways to handle trash is by using purpose-built balers and compactors that compress and store it efficiently. These machines are engineered to handle different types of trash, turning it into compact bales that are easy to store, transport, or recycle. Balers and compactors come in many shapes and sizes, each designed for specific trash streams.
So, how much does a brand-new baler actually cost? The cost depends on several factors – such as the type of baler, its capacity, the amount of trash it can compact, and your preferred financing option.
Small balers
Balers designed for trash management come in a variety of sizes, from ultra-compact models to models suites for large amounts. At the entry level, small balers offer the most affordable solution, typically handling loads of up to about 264.5 lbs. They’re an excellent fit for smaller operations such as retail shops, boutique manufacturers, or healthcare facilities.
These compact machines can efficiently process materials like cardboard, plastics, polystyrene, and cans. For businesses dealing with mixed trash, however, a dedicated compactor will be the more suitable choice.
Medium balers
For businesses that need more capacity, medium balers are a great choice. These machines can compact over 220 lbs of trash, making them perfect for retailers, hotels, restaurants, and catering operations. While they come at a higher price than small units, they deliver the capability to handle between 220 lbs and 385 lbs of trash.
These medium-sizes machines are suitable for handling moderate amounts of trash materials like cardboard and plastic etc..
Large balers
High-capacity balers produce bales weighing between 385 and 661 lbs, though they require some space, more than 10.76 sq. ft. These machines are ideal for businesses that generate significant amounts of trash on a daily basis.
When operated properly, large balers can dramatically reduce the volume of trash, making trash management far simpler and more efficient.
Other considerations: Finance
Your choice of financing also influences the price. Instead of paying the full purchase price upfront, many businesses opt to rent their recycling equipment, spreading out expenses over time. There are several ways to do this, such as equipment rental, lease agreements, or hire-purchase plans.
