Major
Retail Chain Uses Stockroom Baler to Control Cardboard
 |
A load of Mark-Costello's StockRoom Balers is prepared for shipment to retail stores in Florida. |
Mark-Costello Equipment
has begun installation of its StockRoom Baler
in hundreds of outlets of a major retail chain. Mark-Costello developed the StockRoom
Baler to fit into small stockrooms of dollar stores,
drug stores, and other retail applications. This ongoing project will help
these stores control the high volume of cardboard they generate as well
as provide income from recycling the 200-400 lb. bales.
The StockRoom
Baler is a self-contained vertical baler that is small enough in size
to fit through a standard door. It is also built on casters. These features
allow it to be easily installed in existing stores with very little site
preparation. It is easy to operate with many features to minimize time and
effort for store personnel.
Mark-Costello has also addressed the problem of getting the bales of cardboard
out of the store and moved to a pick-up area. To do this, Mark-Costello developed
a unique cart that has casters and a special dumping mechanism. The Bale Cart is positioned in front of the bale chamber
and, automatically, the bales are ejected onto the bale cart. The bale can
then be rolled to the pick-up area.
Retail stores accumulate a lot of cardboard from shipping cartons of
merchandise stock. The StockRoom Baler is an economical alternative for
removing this cardboard and keeping stockrooms clear of debris.
Mark-Costello also manufactures horizontal and vertical balers of all sizes
for use in larger stores and distribution centers. For more information
