How We Build Roll Off and Front Load Containers

Our welders in Waterbury build containers that get dropped, dragged and loaded every day. Seams are continuously MIG welded inside and out, steel is primed with a rust-inhibitive primer and finished in industrial enamel, and roll off containers are built to ANSI Z245.30.

Floors and Crossmembers

Standard roll off floors are 7 gauge on structural channel crossmembers at 16-inch centers. Heavy duty builds move to 1/4-inch plate on 12-inch centers for concrete, scrap and demolition debris.

Compactors

Self-contained compactors with 15 to 35 yard liquid-tight containers, and single or dual ram stationary units with 2 or 3 yard charge boxes.

Custom Builds

We change floor length, wall height, gauge, doors, hardware and coatings to suit your trucks and your material. A 20-yard box can be built on a 14-foot or a 22-foot floor.

Front Load Dumpsters

Standard Front Load Sizes Built in Waterbury, CT
