Collapsible Wire Baskets - Wire Bins & Containers
Wire baskets can be used as storage containers for manufactured goods, or they can be used as small metal shipping containers to ship heavy product over long distances. Mesh sided baskets are truly flexible in their application, whether you’re shipping brand new castings or collect scrap materials, heavy duty wire baskets are a great storage option.
Some of the options for these containers are: collapsible or rigid, drop doors, stackable, heavy-duty load capacity, and the size of the container. Certain sized heavy duty wire baskets are also referred to as metal bulk containers, expanded metal containers and automotive baskets.
Collapsible wire baskets tend to be lighter duty than the rigid wire baskets. Collapsible bins tend to be weight rated between 1,500 and 4,000 lbs. The collapsible metal bins are a nice option for a small metal shipping bin. They work well in this situation, because the sides of the container can be collapsed, thereby reducing the size of an empty container. The collapsible wire baskets can be stacked in a corner of the warehouse, or they can be loaded onto a trailer for return shipment to your plant.
