Crane Skip Pan Rental at 2.6 yards

Our Crane Skip Pan Rentals at 2.6 Yards include an automated latch that enables crane operators to dump out the contents without assistance. There is no rigging to maintain during the rental period. They are also available for sale at CraneGear.net over here.

The Skip Pans used in Construction on job sites has many names. You might hear it as Boat Skip. Muck Skip. Waste Pan. Or Crane Trash Bin. All I know is that I’m in love with the action. Check out this blog with a longer video of the action. The arm (bale arm) lowers all of the way when you drop it down. the lock rotates so that it lifts the bin when you first try to come up. This would allow you to dump it out. If you didn’t want to dump it because maybe it’s holding construction materials, you can lower the arm again and the lock will rotate. When you try to come up again, the lock will clear and the bale arm will stop when it lifts the bin horizontally and keeps any contents inside. It’s by far the easiest trash skip available today.

Large Sizes

These come in large sizes up to 10.4 yards. If you are moving soils, trash, or materials. Export soils or other heavy materials and dump them out of the sloped end.. Import rock or sand material with this heavy duty skip pan that will meet your specific needs. These bins can get the job done with just the crane operator unloading the pan automatically. No latches to work. No rigging to change. Just hoist down and the pan locks and unlocks automatically. But if you need capacities ranging from ¼ yard to 10, we have an option. The 2.6 yard versions are the right size for most construction job sites. But if you want to go large, our 5.2 yard capacities will still fit in roll off dumpster and give you that massive weight capacity. If you need these crane trash skips as a 4 × 4, or a 4 × 8, or a 4 × 10, we can get you the sizing you need. On thing to watch for is the height of the steel sides versus the front loading lip. The front lip is lower and often great for loading by wheel barrow. Let the disposing and collecting begin with these containers.

Safety Built In

Our Crane Skip Pan containers are built beyond the stringent ASME B30.20 certified. We load test to 300% in Germany. We don’t load test to 125% and leave the rest to a calculation. Safety can’t be just a calculation we prove it. And we do so with a third part overseeing the engineering and the testing. TUV of Austria is that party. So when you are lifting overhead, do you want to know that you have 25% extra as your safety margin, or do you want 175% to be the known safety margin? If you want the great degree of safety, Eichinger and Crane Gear are your option. The 3/16 steel plate construction will last decades.

Our skip pans aren’t just safe by construction. They also are easy loading by being a low height on the front lip. They are also easy loading because the bale arm lays down and out of the way. The dump box bale arm laying down also makes it inert and not a danger. It’s also at a low height for the applications of the crane hooks. Finally the skip pan keeps the workers out of dumpsters during the unloading process where injuries could typically happen.

Operational Advantage

Most Crane Skip boxes have rigging that is in the way, or has to be organized. We have a structural bale arm that lays down out of the way. You won’t have to deal with rigging while loading. You won’t have rigging that might hang up as you start the lift process. And you won’t have rigging to reconfigure in the roll off dumpster in trash operations. When I was a tower crane operator the most dangerous common operation was watching people get into dumpsters. If anything shifts, they could be in trouble. They are often walking up on the edge at 8’ in the air with concrete or falling into sharp objects being their options. We eliminate that with our automated latch that functions just by having the crane operator hoisting down. No one needs to ever get in the dumpsters again. The flat bottoms make these great for working on roofs too. This does eliminate the forklift pockets some like to have. If forklift pockets would be more useful for you than having a flat bottom to keep roofing safe, let us know and we can probably work out an option. Contact us and we’ll look at your specific needs.

Safety in Design of Crane Skip Pan

When you look at other crane skip pans or boat skips designed like ours, you’ll see that they have safety latches for the bale arm because it’s left vertical. This is indeed a safety hazard in need of protecting. Bale arms can be several hundred pounds. If they are knocked over in the loading process and someone is standing on the far end, it could be a deadly situation. So we designed our bale arms to lay flat and be deenergized. Our bale arms are safe and unable to move where they might harm someone. These will hold heavy materials. 3300 lbs per yard is the volume rating. We don’t have fork pockets on ours. The flat bottom is great for roofing operations.

The Rental Deal

What we do is offer the bins at a discounted monthly rate with a 3 month minimum rental. We collect the three months up front with the shipping included in the rental. The subsequent months are billed every 28 days. When you know what the termination of the rental looks like, we can stop the billing accordingly and schedule the pick up. If the payment fails to process, we give 28 days to catch up the payment, or we pick up the bin. This way we are not at risk of non-payment, and the clients can utilize equipment more affordably. For a 2.6 yard bin the initial payment is $3750 which pays for three months rental and shipping. The subsequent months are charged at $767.66 for each 28 day rental period.
