What are Heavy-Duty Bulk Boxes?

Heavy-duty bulk boxes are durable containers constructed from 100% recyclable HDPE. These units feature a folding design that allows them to collapse flat when not in use, saving space while reducing return shipping costs. The most common use for heavy-duty bulk boxes is to hold and transport customer returns, but they can also be used to hold consumer goods, automotive parts, and manufacturing materials, allowing them to suit the needs of various applications.

Key Features and Benefits of Heavy-Duty Bulk Boxes

Heavy-duty bulk boxes offer the following benefits and key features:

Superior Durability and Performance

Every heavy-duty bulk box is designed to provide long-lasting durability in even the most demanding environments. This durability is achieved through high-strength HDPE, steel corner hit plates to minimize the chance of damage from forklift handling, and three recessed steel base runners for additional strength. Bulk boxes are also available with capacities up to 2,500 lb, allowing you to place a variety of heavy items in each container with confidence.

Simple and Effective Operation

Heavy-duty bulk boxes feature drop doors for easier loading and four-way forklift entry to improve handling efficiency. Each unit also features a collapsible design and hand-hold areas for enhanced grip, allowing users to unload the container, collapse it flat, and store it on a shelf quickly. This makes it easy to stack and store units while they are not in use while ensuring that they are accessible whenever they are needed. By collapsing to a flat design, each unit also occupies less space on a truck, reducing return shipping costs.

Options for Every Application

Heavy-duty bulk boxes are available in various sizes and can be customized with identification options and lids, making it easy to find the right fit for your specific needs. Whether you need to keep return shipments safe or are looking for a great way to store manufacturing materials, there is a heavy-duty bulk box that can help you get the job done right.
